A dedicated power injection adapter designed to overcome the power limitations of standard vehicle infotainment USB ports. Splitting the single USB connection from your phone into separate paths - one for data and one for power - it allows you to connect your device to your car's head unit while simultaneously sourcing high-current power from a separate USB-PD car charger.
For many drivers, using wired Android Auto or CarPlay results in a net battery loss, as the phone consumes energy for GPS and 5G data faster than the car's 0.5A USB port can replenish it.
Beyond uses for headunits, this is engineered with makers and enthusiasts in mind. The unit supports the latest Programmable Power Supply (PPS) protocols, ensuring compatibility with "Super Fast Charging" on Samsung devices. The hardware is housed in a temperature-resistant PETG enclosure, capable of withstanding the heat of a car's interior (up to ~70°C) without warping or failing, offering a robust solution for daily commuters and road-trippers alike.
