" ... They truly stand behind their products (which is why every cable and charger I have is from them.). ... "
" ... In fact, I don't often take it overnight because of the bunch of cables and bricks. ... "
" ... 0 cable if I needed it for any of my Android devices. ... "
" ... I also purchased Anker's USB-c to Lightning cable and USB-c to USB-c 6-foot cable to go along with it. ... "
" ... Plugged in right next to a lamp cord on the power strip without an empty spacer outlet. ... "
" ... Anker suggested trying a different cord so I purchased an apple certified C to Lightning cord from Anker. ... "
" ... I compared this charger (paired with the recommended Anker lightning cable) against my $49 Apple 30W charger (paired with a genuine Apple cable) and got the exact same results. ... "
" ... Okay so they were on sale, but I've always had great luck with Anker's cables and chargers. ... "
