One of the best things about laptops, and the reason we love them, is their portability; however that does mean sometimes charging the battery on the go, and this is where the car charger comes in so useful.
Even if your car has a USB port already installed, it won’t produce the power needed to fully charge your laptop – most only give out 5 watts, whereas most dedicated chargers provide at least 12. Another reason to buy a separate charger is the option to charge multiple devices at once – a phone and laptop, for example. Built in USBs tend to only have one port.
Most laptop car chargers are universal, as opposed to brand specific, and we’ve taken that into consideration while trying and testing each model thoroughly. Along with output, type and amount of USB ports (A and C), cables and value for money, we’ve considered every angle.
This allows you to browse for your new laptop car charger in complete confidence that every model featured here offers the best quality and an impeccable performance.
