My daily commute has me in the car nearly two hours each day, which means that I need a fast way to charge my phone. Navigation, podcasts, phone calls; they all eat up that battery life. While my car has a built in USB port, it can’t always deliver enough juice quickly enough.

A few months ago, I picked up an AUKEY Quick Charge 3.0 to keep in the car. I’ve had great luck with their cables and wall chargers, so I felt pretty confident that this cigarette lighter car charger would be the same.

The AUKEY charger has been great! It has a simple design, so it doesn’t take up any extra space around the cigarette lighter. As for charge speed: during my lunch hour, I can bring my phone from 65% back up to 90%! The charger accepts any USB type of cable, and it even has 2 ports so that a passenger can top off their phone too. It’s a great way to keep your phone topped up and ready to go when you get out of the car.
