Frequently asked questions
  • 1. Why am I not getting the cable’s full rated wattage?关闭
    A cable’s rated wattage is the maximum power it can support, not the power your device will always receive.

    Actual charging power depends on your device, charger, cable, and charging protocol, as well as factors such as battery level and device temperature.

    For example, a 240W cable can support up to 240W, but if your device or charger supports only 65W, the actual charging power will be limited to 65W.
  • 2. Does a higher-wattage cable charge faster?关闭
    Not necessarily.

    Charging speed depends on the device, charger, and cable. If your phone supports up to 30W, a 100W or 240W cable won’t make it charge faster.

    For the best charging performance, make sure your device, charger, and cable support the same charging power and protocol.
  • 3. Is it safe to use a laptop cable with my phone?关闭
    Yes. Using a higher-wattage cable will not damage your phone, as long as the cable and charger are compatible with your device and meet the relevant safety standards.

    Your phone will only draw the power it supports, regardless of the cable’s maximum rated wattage.
  • 4. What cable wattage do I need? What’s the difference between 60W, 100W, and 240W?关闭
    A cable’s rated wattage indicates the maximum power it can support.

    60W: Suitable for smartphones, tablets, and some laptops.
    100W: Suitable for most laptops and other higher-power devices.
    240W: Designed for devices that support ultra-high-power charging.

    Choose a cable based on your device’s charging requirements. A higher-wattage cable does not necessarily mean faster charging.
