A USB charger that can quickly charge a variety of USB devices
Smartphones and navigation systems have become indispensable when riding a motorcycle. USB power supplies for charging these devices have also become a necessity. While an increasing number of current models are equipped with USB power supplies as standard, most models have an output of 1A to 2A. While this isn’t a problem for everyday use, such as leaving the device plugged in, there are times when you forget to charge it on your way to work or school, or when you accidentally use your smartphone too much while out and the battery is running low, even a 2A output can be difficult to charge. This is when you need a quick charger.
It is equipped with a USB-C port that supports PD and a USB-A port that supports QC3.0, and is also equipped with a power ON/OFF switch.

There is also a voltmeter on the top so you can keep track of the battery’s condition and prepare for any problems.
There are many aftermarket USB power supplies on the market, from affordable to multi-functional, but few offer fast charging capabilities. The “USB Charger (2-Port TYPE-A/C)” from Special Parts Takegawa (hereafter, SP Takegawa) features two ports that support fast charging. The USB Type-A port supports QC3.0 and outputs 5V/3.4A, 9V/2.5A, and 12V/2A, while the USB Type-C port supports PD and outputs 5V/3A, 9V/2.22A, and 12V/1.67A. The built-in voltmeter displays the vehicle’s voltage in real time. Battery voltage management allows you to monitor the battery status and prepare for potential issues. The charger also features an ON/OFF switch, which can be turned off when not in use to reduce battery drain and protect smartphones and tablets. Its high output makes it ideal for powering action cameras and laptops.
It also comes with a rubber cover to cover the port in rainy weather or when not in use.
The included pipe clamp stay is compatible with φ22.2mm and φ25.4mm pipes, allowing it to be attached to not only standard handlebars and multi-holders, but also oversized handlebars. The charger and clamp are connected with a slide lock, allowing for easy removal and installation without tools. The device also features low voltage protection, input overvoltage, output overcurrent, overvoltage, low voltage, short circuit protection, reverse connection protection, and high temperature protection inside the chip, ensuring safe use.
