- Simultaneous Charging: You can charge two devices simultaneously using both the USB-C and USB-A ports. The total output will be intelligently distributed, up to 65W Max.
- Disconnect: Once charging is complete, disconnect the cable from your device first, then unplug the charger from the wall outlet.
Important Notes:
- Always use high-quality, certified charging cables compatible with your devices to ensure optimal performance and safety.
- The USB-C port supports Power Delivery (PD) for faster charging of compatible devices. Ensure your device and cable support PD for maximum speed.
- When charging multiple devices, the power output may be shared, potentially reducing the charging speed for individual devices.
