Slow charge times with my single chargerUpdated 3 days ago

NOTE— The Aeroo Pro Single Charger is a USB-C charger. To hit the advertised sub 240-minute full-charge time you must connect it to a wall adapter, power bank or vehicle inverter that can supply over 30 W (15 V ⎓ 2 A or higher)

Lower-powered bricks (for example, most 5 W–18 W phone cubes) force the charger to drop to a trickle and the battery can take well over eight hours to fill.

Other factors that slow things down

  • Cheap or damaged USB-C cables that cannot carry 15 V.

  • Plugging the charger into a laptop or TV USB port (these rarely exceed 7.5 W)

  • Charging in very cold environments (the charger limits current to protect the cells)

  • A battery that has just come in from a flight and is still hot— it will wait for the pack to cool before pulling full current

What to try

  1. Check your adapter label. Look for “USB-C PD 30 W” or any output row showing 15 V ⎓ 2 A (or 20 V ⎓ 1.5 A). If it only lists 5 V or 9 V, upgrade the brick.

  2. Swap the cable. Use the Aeroo-supplied cable or any 100 W-rated USB-C cable that explicitly supports fast charge.

  3. Give the charger a clean 240 min run. Avoid daisy-chaining through extension hubs or smart sockets that might interrupt power.

  4. Let the battery cool to < 40 °C before charging for the fastest ramp-up.

  5. Still crawling? Try a different power outlet, then a different 30 W+ adapter.
