Design & Build Quality
-
Heavy Metal Exterior: Unlike many plastic car chargers, the PowerDrive 2 Alloy features a sleek, scratch-resistant aluminum alloy shell. This premium finish matches modern vehicle interiors and offers superior durability.
-
Flush-Fit / Low-Profile Design: Engineered to be no wider than a quarter, it sits almost entirely flush with the dashboard. This prevents it from getting accidentally bumped and maintains unobstructed access to your radio, gear shift, or nearby cup holders.
-
Easy Removal: Despite its flush appearance, it features a subtly ridged pull-tip design that allows for a firm, struggle-free grip when you need to unplug it.
-
Subtle LED Indicator: Includes a soft, non-disruptive LED light ring or point that lets you know power is active without causing a glare during nighttime driving.
Charging Technology
-
PowerIQ & VoltageBoost: Powered by Anker’s proprietary smart-charging algorithms, the charger automatically detects your connected device type and negotiates the optimal charging speed. VoltageBoost intelligently overcomes cable resistance to ensure a steady current flow.
-
Simultaneous Dual Charging: Capable of pumping out a full 24W combined, it can fast-charge two smartphones (or a phone and a tablet) at the same time without a noticeable drop in performance.
-
Important Note: It does not support Qualcomm Quick Charge or USB Power Delivery (USB-PD Type-C fast charging protocols), meaning it relies on standard high-speed USB-A charging rates (ideal for iPhones, standard Android devices, dash cams, and GPS units).
Safety Features
-
MultiProtect Safety System: Anker’s comprehensive safety suite protects both your car and your electronics. It includes:
-
Over-voltage and over-current protection
-
Short-circuit prevention
-
Temperature control
-
-
Gold-Plated Circuitry: Minimizes heat generation while maximizing electrical efficiency. Combined with the metal casing, heat is dissipated quickly to prevent overheating during long road trips.
