What devices can PowerCord charge?
PowerCord can charge most USB-C powered devices, including phones (like iPhone 15 and newer, or Android phones), tablets, earbuds, speakers, portable gaming devices, and even USB-C rechargeable personal care gear. It can fast-charge iPhones and many Androids, and efficiently charge iPads, Kindles, and more.
How much power does PowerCord deliver?
PowerCord delivers 30 watts of charging power, which is enough to fast charge phones and handle most tablets and smaller laptops. For iPhones, this means up to 50% charge in around 30 minutes. It’s perfect for day-to-day charging at home, work, or on the go.
How long is the built-in cable?
The built-in USB-C cable is 1 meter (approximately 3.3 feet)—a sweet spot for charging at your desk, nightstand, or wall outlet. It’s long enough to be useful but short enough to avoid tangles and clutter. No more cords draped across the room!
Can I use PowerCord to charge my laptop?
PowerCord is best for small-to-medium-sized devices. While it can trickle charge lightweight laptops like MacBook Air or Chromebooks, it’s not intended to be your primary laptop charger. For most other devices, 30W is plenty powerful.
Does PowerCord support fast charging?
Yes! PowerCord supports fast charging for compatible devices, thanks to its USB-C Power Delivery (PD) tech. This means you’ll get quicker charges on supported iPhones, iPads, Androids, and other PD-enabled devices—without needing to swap out cables or blocks.
Can the cable be removed or replaced?
No - and that’s by design. PowerCord is designed with a permanently attached cable, so you’ll never grab the wrong one or forget it at home. It’s a compact, all-in-one solution that keeps your tech life simple and streamlined.
Is PowerCord safe for my devices?
Absolutely. PowerCord includes built-in protection against overcurrent, overheating, and overcharging—so your devices stay safe while charging. It meets all safety standards you’d expect from a trusted Twelve South product.
