Are you still using uncertified charging cables to charge your costly and high-powered laptops, tablets, game consoles, and phones? Ever notice how rapidly your batteries deplete after just a few weeks of use? Since you’ve been using a charging cable that doesn’t give the correct rate of charge, it could cost you a new expensive ion battery or laptop altogether. You might also be dealing with the hassle of lugging around space-consuming charging bricks and tangled up cables that offer subpar charging speeds. Fortunately, there’s a solution to this problem

When you use j5create’s USB-C™ Charging Cables with OLED Dynamic Power Meter, the longevity of not only the battery but also your USB™ devices is protected. Faster charging is excellent, but it’s even better when it’s also e-marked and vendor certified to use intelligent IC to detect your devices’ charge rate. This ensures safe, efficient charging. j5create also has compact power delivery wall chargers that offer ultra-fast charge speeds.
