I purchased an IXCC 10 foot, 1 month, it stopped charging, never abused it. Is this USB cord one to count on, or will it fail? Can I leave my phone in its case while I charge it? With some cords the standard iPhone case gets in the way.Thanks. I purchased an IXCC 10 foot, 1 month, it stopped charging, never abused it. Is this USB cord one to count on, or will it fail?

Purchased this long cord (2) for two IPads, have worked fine for 4 months, length allows IPAD to be more safely placed than putting on the floor with short cord. Using original plug charger that came with the IPADs which the longer cords plug into.

I regularly leave mine in the dock with no negative consequences. I have been been very happy the dock and it definitely charges my Nexus 10 much faster than the USB based cable.

I use the cord I use to charge my iphone, but it does fit easily in a purse. I've brought mine to the gym plugged in to the charger. There is a separate cord to plug in the charger when it needs to be re-charged. I love this charger and just bought one as a Christmas gift!

I did not get that message. I bought mine to charge my iPhone 5s in it's life proof case. The iPhone 5s is notorious for not taking charges from a lot of non-Apple cords that are out there. I just plugged this cord into my iPad Air, and it seems to be working just fine.

Ok, I have had two of these (red and black) for 1 year iPhone 5... and like them so much that I cant think of using another brand. First, the only time you need to take tha case off is when you need to back up the phone by Lightning cable. Secondly, If you do your backups wirelessly you never have to take the case off. Thirdly, to charge the iPhone and case connect a micro usb cable to the case and the other end (regular usb 2) to at least a 10 watt wall plug. On the back of the case a red led will start flashing, then blue led will flash, then green led flash to steady green led (charging complete) When the charging starts, it will fill the iPhone battery first, then the case. From dead batteries it could take up to 4 hours. You can disconnect the cable any time during the charging cycle to use, and reconnect at a later time to continue. To only use your phone battery, push the button on the back till you see the indicator on the phone show battery in the phone only. If you want to use both batteries at the same time (passthrough charging) push and hold the button on the back of the case till you hear "chimes" and see the green battery logo on the phone. I fill (charge) both batteries, then turn off the case battery. When the iPhone gets down to about 20%... turn on the case battery (hold down the button on back of case) till till the phone reads 100%... about 15 minutes... then turn the case battery off till needed again. You can do this at least 3 cycles (for me 3 to 5 days). I carry a second charged case when I am on the road and "never" run out of juice. I hope this helps you and others ;-{)

I'm in the same boat, worked great then (just like every other lightning cable) it started coming apart near the 8 pin plug and is now not working at all.

Since you use your own charging cord in the device, the answer would be yes. I have an iPhone and I had to thread my iPhone charging cord, and my iPad charging cord through the device and then you plug your phone and tablet directly into the charger cord. The device is actually a "holder" for the phone and tablet....in itself the device is not a charger. When I bought it I thought I was buying a charger and that was not the case. However, it is a convenient device for holding my phone and iPad upright as opposed to laying the on the counter to charge. Hope this answers your question.

It fits in the phone perfectly and it's very durable. Most other cables I've had seem to start coming apart at the connector and you have to wiggle them to get your phone to charge and I've had several that the end just pulls off. This cable has a small steal braided cable wrapped around the wires and welded to the ends so that doesn't happen. It's well worth your money! It's more dependable than the original cables. Hope this helps.

You must be rough on your cables. I have a half dozen apple lightning cables and zero failures in almost three years. Don't pull the cord to unplug, pull the connector. I also have two Amazon basics cables and both had the cable jacket separate from the connector. Fixed those with Sugru.

Mine did not come with a chsrger , I assumed it was a misprint . I haven't updated my iOS yet in my 5 and it still chages fine from multiple chargers . It sounds like the car charger that came with thst might have failed . Some chargers use a fuse in the plug that fits into a 12V socket. That's where I would start assuming that the phone charges properly on other chargers (110V)

The software should not interfere with the charge functioning. You may have a damaged charger, especially if the cord was too sharply bent during mounting each time? If it's a hard bend, consider repositioning the mount slightly. Also, you can check the charger by testing with another I-phone.

There is a hard case that goes over the phone. Part of this hard case (on the inside where it's never seen) is the built in plug that goes into the charging slot at the bottom of the iPhone. I got this Powermat the first month I had my iPhone. I had gone through multiple power cords and rather than replace them every week I needed a reliable alternate. If the recharge slot on your phone is broken I don't think there is an easy solution. If it's just the charger cord (that the phone manufacturers KNOW is cheap and unreliable!) is the problem then this would be perfect for you.It adds little weight and gives you a long lasting working way to recharge your phone rapidly!

Hello Jeff, This case was purchased for our company president. As far as I know, he keeps the case charged & only uses it when the IPhone battery is low. He did relay to me that it works very well & the design is outstanding. Hope this helps. Have a great day.

I have an iPhone 5 which I use with this cable and the phone has never said "it's not certified"? In fact, this cable has worked perfect with my iPhone 5. I've had no problems and it's a much sturdier cable than apple's cable (I had to replace the cable apple gave me because it frayed).

The cable is only about 25cm (less than a foot) long.But that is part of the concept to keep electrical resistance low. I have tried other, longer cables, and they reduce the power reaching the device by up to 50%! The fast charge cable does exactly what it should do: bring as much power as possible to the device.It's not meant for woring with the device while charging, and it won't allow data transfer either. It's just there for fast charging, nothing else. And that's what it does.
