Are you tired of carrying around different charging cables to keep your mobile gadgets charged?  Is your backpack pocket full of tangled cables that are headache to use when you need them?  People carry around more gadgets than ever to complement the mobile lifestyle.  Apple, Android, Windows phones, iPad and tablets, e-books, power banks, portable speakers have become common-carry items for many people.  We have recognized this problem and have dedicated ourselves to solve it.  Scroll down to find out more.






If you are familiar with the Apple’s implementation of its Lightning connector, you would know by now that you NEED an Apple certified connector to properly charge your Apple device. Apple controls its certified products from the development phase right to the release based on its strict performance standards.  Our Universal Charging Cable is guaranteed to work with all iDevices and previous, present and future versions of iOS.

 
“Made for iPod”, “Made for iPhone” and “Made for iPad” mean that an electronic accessory has been designed to connect specifically to iPod, iPhone or iPad, respectively, and has been certified by the developer to meet Apple performance standards. Apple is not responsible for the operation of this device or its compliance with safety and regulatory standards. Please note that the use of this accessory with iPod, iPhone or iPad may affect wireless performance. iPod, iPhone, iPad, iPod classic, iPod nano and iPod touch are trademarks of Apple Inc, registered in the U.S and other countries. Lightning is a trademark of Apple Inc.


Our Universal Charging Cable provides 3 certified charging tips for all the popular mobile gadgets available - Lightning, MicroUSB and 30-Pin connectors - compatible with but not limited to : iPhone 6S/6/5S/5/5C/4S/4/3GS/3G/1, iPad Air 2/1, iPad mini 3/2/1, iPad 4/3/2/1, iPod touch 5/4/3/2/1, iPod nano 7/6/5/4/3/2/1, iPod classic, Android smartphones and tablets, Windows smartphones, Kindle and e-books, power banks, portable speakers, modern digital cameras with microUSB charging port and more.   The charging tips are conveniently detachable from the cable for various applications.  We are proud to say that this is the only 3-in-1 charging cable in the market with Apple MFi certification, as we have worked closely with our factory and the Apple’s engineering team to develop a product that meets Apple’s strict performance standards.


The tips are conveniently detachable.

Our Universal Charging Cable can sync most smartphones and tablets to your computer.



We were very focused on delivering a highly durable cable that can withstand day-to-day beating.  In order to do that, we used the highest-grade thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) commonly used for its durability, flexibility and the ability to retain its shape (does not stretch).  Below are some of the reasons why we picked TPU, according to PROSPECTOR.

  • Tough and durable, unparalleled with their abrasion resistance
  • Well suited for both soft and rigid applications
  • Offer good color stability with UV additives
  • Formulated for applications calling for good-to-excellent transparency
  • Recyclable
  • Resistant to oil, grease, fuel, solvents and chemicals
  • Cut and tear resistant
  • Offer low temperature flexibility and fatigue resistance
  • Resistant to creep in load bearing applications
  • Available in halogen and non-halogen (fire retardant) grades
  • Depending on the grade, capable of being injection molded, extruded, blow molded, calendared, slush molded or thermoformed
  • Readily available in a variety of hardnesses, ranging from 50 Shore A to 85 Shore D
  • Fungus and microbial resistant, especially polyether TPUs
  • Good for applications calling for ultrasound transparency
  • Suited for both soft and rigid applications
  • Light weight (especially as a metals replacement)
  • Provided with good elasticity qualities
  • Hydrolytically stable and naturally antimicrobial (polyether TPUs)
  • Assured to provide good color stability with UV additives
  • Capable of offering excellent adhesion strength to many different substrates in overmolding soft-touch applications



We also designed the cable with the steel-braid inside and the tin-foil insulation for maximum durability.  This is also a part of the requirements in Apple MFi guideline.



Our Universal Charging Cable is compatible with but not limited to : iPhone 6S/6/5S/5/5C/4S/4/3GS/3G/1, iPad Air 2/1, iPad mini 3/2/1, iPad 4/3/2/1, iPod touch 5/4/3/2/1, iPod nano 7/6/5/4/3/2/1, iPod classic, Android smartphones and tablets, Windows smartphones, Kindle and e-books, power banks, portable speakers, modern digital cameras with microUSB charging port and more.  Please inquire us if you have questions about our cable’s compatibility with your device.

After an extensive market research, we have found that there is not a single 3-in-1 cable with MFi certification on the market. Our target was to develop a form-factor that could be certified - it meant that we would have to find a solution within using the adapters because sharing one PCB board of different connectors were strictly prohibited from Apple.

Then, we got our initial sketch into the industrial design quickly.  We have gone through several concepts to finalize on the latest design.  At this stage we added the detachable functionality of the adapters to make the cable even more versatile.

After finalizing the design and mechanics of the cable, we visited our MFi partner factory to submit the product plan to Apple and fine-tune the specifications.

MFi manufacturing involves impeccable quality control.

Laser soldering (above) is required for MFi manufacturing.
