Usb-c

Morpheus5150 · January 9, 2020

Does anyone know what the specs are for USB-C in new trucks? I connected a gas charge USB-C to lightning and connected my iPhone X and it doesn’t fast charge. I also connected my laptop and the power was not enough to keep up charge while on

Correct me if I'm wrong, but USB C & lighting cable don't necessarily mean a fast charge. They mean faster data transfer speeds. Fast charging is based on high amp output at charging source.

That’s why I asked for the specs. Amps and watts

Manual mentions the wireless charger provides 3A... I don't see any mention of the specs of the wired ports though.

If you are looking for fast charging, I would suggest getting a 12V accessory plug, or something to go into the 110v outlet...

I bought an anker usb-c to lightning cable and my iPhone X charges way faster than the usb connection.

I'm a bit surprised that this specification is not known. Seems a bit ridiculous that it's not specified in the manual. Any random USB C part (even $4 cables) have a started max wattage. I use a 12v adapter to get 65w. I need 65w for laptops. It also works just fine for phones and tables. A 65w adapter now costs only about $12. Wish I didn't need the extra adapter in the clutter, but I do. Now I heard the 2022 and later trucks do not have a 12v outlet! So the ability to use a 12v adapter is gone and the USB c wattage is sh1t. What were they thinking m

I have a 20 watt amber strobe light that has a cigarette loghter adapter on it. my new Silverado 2500 does not have a cigarrete lighter plug. I cant find an apter for USB-C yo cigarette lighter that supports 20 watts. the specs for USB-C state it can supprt 100 watts. I assume (you know how that goes) that the plug in my truck will suppoet that too, but i cant find those specs anywhere...

Might be time for one of the strobes that use usb-c

I think strobe lights are battery-operated nowadays...

LED's don't require much energy.

The USB-C in my Cheyenne did around 10W, that's just a wild guess. The regular USB did 2 or 3W.
