Cars nowadays are equipped with USB ports for charging your phones, but if you have a decades old beater like me, then chances are good that it doesn’t. Fortunately, there’s an extremely inexpensive solution to that problem. Amazon is currently offering a slim Lisen 65W Car Charger with a built-in coiled USB Type-C cable for a mere $7.98 after you apply a 50% off coupon code “3OPSQ269” during checkout. This little car charger plugs into a standard 12V vehicle socket and can fast charge an iPhone 16 or Nintendo Switch at their fastest rate.
Lisen 65W Car Charger with 4ft Type-C Coiled Cable for $8
The Lisen 30W car charger is the compact style where only the head unit sits exposed above the 12V vehicle outlet. There are a total of three “ports”: one USB Type-C port, one USB Type-A port, and a coiled USB Type-C retractable cable that can be extended out to about 4 feet. The charging output of each individual port is as follows:
- USB Type-C coiled cable: 30W (PD)
- USB Type-C port: 35W (PD)
- USB Type-A port: 30W
Note that the maximum charging output is 65W. That means although all three ports add up to a total of 95W, only a maximum of 65W will be delivered across all three ports if they are used simultaneously. That’s actually a good thing because higher charging output means more heat, and the charger is too small to accommodate large or fancy heatsinks.
If you have any model Apple iPhone 16, then both the cable and the USB port will charge it at its fastest rate when you use the retractable cable. ChargerLAB has shown that the maximum charging rate caps at about 30W, even for the Pro Max. It will also fast charge the Nintendo Switch, which caps at 18W.
