FAQs
What devices is this cable compatible with?
This cable is designed for Apple devices featuring an 8-pin Lightning port, such as iPhone 5 through iPhone 14 series, and older iPad models. It will not work with newer devices that use USB-C exclusively.
Can I use this cable with any USB-C charger?
Yes, you can use it with any USB-C charger, but to achieve the full 27W fast charging speed, your USB-C charger must support a minimum output of 27W (9V-3A).
How do I clean the magnetic connector?
Gently wipe the magnetic connector with a clean, dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using liquids or any cleaning agents as they can damage the magnetic components or the finish.
Does the magnetic connector stay attached to the phone?
The magnetic connector is designed to snap onto the cable. It does not permanently attach to the device itself, minimizing any obstruction to the device's charging port when the cable is disconnected.
What is the data transfer speed?
The cable supports high-speed data transfer, though the exact speed depends on the USB standard supported by your connected devices and ports. It is designed for faster than standard USB 2.0 speeds.
Is the braided cable durable?
Yes, the cable features a braided exterior and magnetic wire construction, which is designed to be more durable, resistant to tangles, and withstand everyday wear and tear compared to standard rubberized cables.
Troubleshooting
Cable not charging the device
Ensure the USB-C end is securely plugged into a working power source. Verify the 8-pin magnetic connector is properly aligned and attached to the device. Try a different USB-C port or power adapter.
Slow charging speed
Confirm that your power adapter supports at least 27W output. If using a computer's USB port, it may have lower power output; try a dedicated wall adapter. Ensure the device itself supports fast charging.
Data transfer not working
Check that the cable is fully inserted into both the device and the USB-C port. Restart both the device and the computer. Try a different USB-C port on your computer or use a different USB-C cable to rule out cable issues.
Magnetic connector not holding firmly
Clean both the magnetic connector and the device's charging port with a dry, soft cloth to remove any dust or debris. Ensure no metallic objects are interfering with the magnetic connection.
