Compatibility maximized: Meeting your device's unique charging needs.

Ever wonder why your smartphone charges faster from some charging ports and slower from others? Often, it's not just the power that your charger can offer. Instead, it comes down to compatibility. Some ports simply don't speak the right language to open up your device to full speed charging. Try plugging an iPad into an Android adapter and your charge time could double.

Our solution? PowerIQ™ technology communicates with any connected device by speaking its unique charging language. Each port intelligently identifies your device and adapts to its specific recharge rate. So thanks to PowerIQ™, together with Anker's industry-leading output, you can enjoy maximum compatibility that doesn't limit your charging speed.

Usage Notes

1. To protect the long-term capacity of your device's battery, please unplug the power wire promptly after the device is fully charged.
2. Keep the product away from extreme heat or cold, as well as any flammable items or damp places. Also avoid dropping, hitting or throwing the product.
3. Please fully charge your external battery at least once every 4 months to avoid shortening its lifespan.
4. Do not try to charge and discharge the Astro E6 at the same time, as this may reduce the battery's lifespan.
5. Since the combined output of all ports is limited to 4 amps, concurrent use of the 3 ports may slow the charging process.
6. The battery is 92% efficient, accounting for power lost through circuit heat and voltage conversion, which is up to 10% above the industry average. Energy is also lost within the charging cable and your device (approximately 15 - 20% ).
