Thank you @JIVAN for sending this Vantrue C4 4 Ports 48W 9.6A USB Car Charger (with Two Ports to Backseat) for review.
This is available here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/B019VZO2YE
This is a must have car charger to power all your gadgets...works and looks great.
I always have to mess with cigarette lighter extensions and splitter when I'm testing more than few dashcams at once and this came in very handy.
This charger is built very good and finally, I can connect all my accessories at once.
It is very uniquely designed.
Two ports are on the cigarette lighter adapter and two are at the other end that you can extend to back seat area. I didn't measure the length but it's long enough to reach back seat area and product page mentions it's 6 feet long.
It even has a small clip that you can hook on the back of front seat for clean installation.
Also has a small 3M tape included if you want to stick the extension somewhere on the center console.
I used it to power 4 dashcams (AutoBot Eye, Papago 388, Papago S30 and Xiaomi Yi) and it powered them all without any issue.
I've included a picture here.
I tested it with my phone and 3 dashcams and my Galaxy Note was getting over 1200 mAh power.
Each port on this car charger is rated at 2.4A for a total of 48W/9.6A.
However, THIS IS IMPORTANT --> To get that rated power, you have to use very good quality usb cables.
I tested one with a generic cable and my Galaxy Note was only getting 600 mAh.
I then used better cable and it went to 1200 mAh.
The cable was long so that also reduces the charge. I will test more with shorter cables to charge my phone and measure the charging ampere.
To take full power of this charger, use high quality short cable.
For dashcams, as long as they work, it's fine but for phone/tablet, I definitely have to use a short cable so it charges quicker.
If you get one, try different cables and check with a charging monitor app.
Very useful and has enough juice to power accessories like phone, tablet, dashcams etc...
This is a must have car charger, specially for those who have limited number of cigarette lighter outlet and too many gadgets like me or those that have kids playing games on tablet on the back seat.
Highly recommended!
