Vehicle USB Socket

In-car USB sockets are a convenient solution and offer more reliable operation than cigarette lighter adapters. But they can also be used in other contexts, such as recessed in an office desk or in a hotel lobby.

What devices can car USB chargers be used with?

The USB standard has become so widespread that it can be used to charge virtually any mobile device.All smartphones, whether Android or Apple, support this format. So, of course, do the vast majority of tablets, laptops and of course GPS receivers on the market. So with a USB plug-in socket, you don't have to worry about compatibility issues: with the right cable, you can easily charge any USB-equipped device.

Plug-in USB chargers have several advantages over USB adapters that plug into a cigarette lighter. Firstly, they offer significantly more stable operation, minimising the possibility of contact failure. On the other hand, they offer a much wider range of placement options. Some models can even be mounted in the car seat.

Which vehicles can USB sockets be installed in?

Residential solutions

For residential use, USB sockets can be installed in any make and type of car. This means that both front and rear passengers can have access to a power source at any time: with multiple outlets, even more than one at a time. Our webshop offers USB sockets for both 12 and 24 volt DC systems.

Industrial solutions

In addition to residential use, car USB chargers are particularly useful in trucks, ambulances or even taxis. We even have models that can be attached to the handrails of buses. There are also special versions for rail use, which of course comply with all relevant standards.
