Apple has been a leader in smartphone and tablet technology since the close of the flip-phone Dark Ages. While iOS users tend to protect their mobile devices with the vigilance of an anxious parent, we bestow less attention on the charging cords. The wayward tethers tend to wander off, become lost, or get themselves abducted by some other iPhone user who “mistakes” your charger for their own. Prevent charger loss by always having one of these spares on hand.
Usually it’s the cord and adapter that run off together. When you have to replace both components, a USB-to-Lightening connection cable is the standard for iPhone 5 and later versions.
Because many automobiles, kitchen outlets, and other environments now have integrated USB ports, you don’t always need to have the 110-volt adapter to charge. Similarly, if the adapter is sound but the cable has become frayed or lost, it’s easy to replace it with a durable braided cord.
Comes in Multiple Lengths
Instead of toting one complete charging unit from location to location, which is the easiest way to lose it, consider buying cords in multiples. That way you can leave a cord plugged into several of your most frequently used USB power stations and always have a means to charge your iOS device.
