FAQs

What is the maximum amperage this charger provides?

The Oxford USB Type A 3.0 AMP Charging Kit provides a maximum of 3.0 AMPs for charging devices.

Can I use this to charge my laptop?

While it charges at 3.0 AMPs, it is primarily designed for smaller electronics like smartphones and GPS units. Charging a laptop would depend heavily on the laptop's specific charging requirements and the USB-A port's ability to meet them, which is unlikely for most modern laptops.

Does this come with a USB cable?

The product description does not specify if a USB cable is included. It provides the charging port, and you will need to use your own compatible USB cable.

Is this product waterproof?

The product is designed for motorcycle use, implying some level of weather resistance, but is not fully waterproof. Care should be taken to protect it from direct and prolonged exposure to heavy rain.

What voltage does this charger require?

This charger is designed to connect to a standard 12V motorcycle electrical system.

How do I connect it to my motorcycle?

It requires wiring into your motorcycle's 12V power system. It's recommended to connect it to a circuit that is powered when the ignition is on, and to use an appropriate fuse for safety.

Troubleshooting

Device not charging or charging slowly

Ensure the USB cable is fully inserted into both the device and the charging port. Verify the power source is providing adequate voltage and amperage. Check that the charging kit is properly wired and fused. Try a different USB cable.

Unit not powering on

Confirm that the motorcycle's power source is active and the kit is correctly wired. Check for any blown fuses in the vehicle's electrical system or the kit's wiring. Ensure all connections are secure.

Port feels loose

Inspect the USB port for any visible damage. If the port is physically damaged, the unit may need replacement. Ensure the unit itself is securely mounted to prevent strain on the port.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This charging kit requires connection to a suitable 12V power source on your motorcycle. This typically involves wiring it into the vehicle's electrical system, potentially via the battery or a fused accessory circuit. Ensure all connections are secure and insulated to prevent short circuits. Professional installation is recommended if you are not comfortable with automotive electrical systems.

Compatibility: The kit features a standard USB Type-A port, making it compatible with the vast majority of USB charging cables for smartphones, GPS units, action cameras, and other portable electronics. It delivers up to 3.0 AMPs, which is sufficient for most devices, though some high-end devices might have proprietary fast-charging technologies requiring specific chargers.

Care: To maintain the charging kit, regularly inspect the USB port for dirt or debris and clean gently with a dry cloth or compressed air if necessary. Ensure the power connections remain clean and corrosion-free. Avoid exposing the unit to excessive water or harsh chemicals.
