The FASTCHARGE capability is facilitated through a dual-port design:

- USB-C Port: Compatible with Quick Charge (QC) 2.0/3.0 and USB Power Delivery (USB-PD). It can deliver:

- 5V DC 3A (15W) for standard devices

- 9V DC 2A (18W) for QC and USB-PD compatible devices

- 12V DC 1.5A (18W) for QC and USB-PD compatible devices

- USB-A Port: Also supports QC 2.0/3.0, and outputs include:

- 5V DC 2A (10W) for standard devices

- 9V DC 2A (18W) for QC compatible devices

- 12V DC 1.5A (18W) for QC compatible devices

It is essential to note that only one port can activate the FASTCHARGE feature at a time, while the alternative port will revert to a standard 5V DC 1A output.

Compatibility

This socket is designed to accommodate a wide range of devices. It supports Android devices that are compatible with QC 2.0/3.0 and USB-PD through the USB-C port. Additionally, it works with Apple devices that support USB-PD, including iPhone 8 and newer models, when using a certified Lightning to USB-C charge/sync cable.

Easy Installation and Design

The socket requires a minimum back box depth of 35mm and comes with a 10mm spacer, making it suitable for retrofitting into 25mm back boxes. Constructed from premium-grade steel, the socket boasts a stylish and modern design, making it a perfect fit for any contemporary setting.

With dimensions of 88mm in height and a projection of just 4.3mm, it combines form and function without taking up too much space. It has been built to ensure longevity of use, featuring high-quality components and is ErP Ready, consuming only 0.1W in stand-by mode.

Safety and Performance

Safety is paramount, and thus it is recommended to use only certified USB cables for optimal performance and compatibility. The device intelligently controls the power drawn, ensuring that most devices activate FASTCHARGE mode only when battery levels are between 0-70%. This feature helps protect battery health by reverting to standard charging parameters thereafter.

With a 2-year warranty, this dual USB socket stands out as a reliable and efficient charging solution for modern-day needs.
