Frequently Asked Questions - SQWC A2 SILVERCREST

What devices are compatible with the SilverCrest SQWC A2 charger?

The SQWC A2 supports all Qi-compatible smartphones and other devices, including iPhone 8 and later, Samsung Galaxy S6 and later, and many others.

Does the SQWC A2 support fast charging?

Yes, it can deliver up to 10W fast charging for compatible devices like Samsung Galaxy and iPhone models that support Qi fast charging. However, you may need a 9V/2A power adapter to achieve maximum speed.

How do I know if my phone is charging?

When you place your phone on the charger, a blue LED will light up to indicate charging. The LED will turn off when the battery is full or if no device is detected.

Can I use the charger with a case on my phone?

Yes, you can use most non-metallic cases up to about 3 mm thick. However, thick or magnetic cases may interfere with charging. Remove credit cards or RFID tags from the case.

What power adapter should I use?

For best performance, use a power adapter with 5V/2A or 9V/2A output. A standard 5V/1A charger will work but will limit charging speed to 5W.

The SQWC A2 is not MagSafe-certified, but it will charge iPhone 12/13/14/15 models normally at up to 7.5W. The magnetic alignment is not guaranteed.

Is the charger safe to use overnight?

Yes, the charger includes overcharge protection and automatically stops charging once the battery is full. It also has temperature control to prevent overheating.

What does the foreign object detection do?

Foreign object detection (FOD) prevents the charger from activating if a metal object like a coin or key is placed on the pad, protecting both the device and the charger.

How do I clean the charger?

Unplug the charger and wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use water, cleaning agents, or abrasive materials to avoid damage.

What should I do if the charger stops working?

First, check the power adapter and cable. Try a different USB port or adapter. Ensure your phone is properly centered on the charger. If the issue persists, the charger may be defective; contact SilverCrest customer service for support.
