UGREEN CD137 20W USB-C fast charger with a UK plug, bundled with a 1-metre MFi-certified USB-C to Lightning cable, is in stock now at Mascom International for KSh 2,800, brand new and sealed. The UGREEN CD137 pushes a full 20W through its single USB-C port and speaks Power Delivery 3.0, Quick Charge 4.0, PPS, FCP, and BC 1.2. Its three-pin plug drops straight into Kenya's Type G sockets with no travel adapter in the middle. Collect the UGREEN CD137 charging set from Mascom International at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, open Monday through Saturday.
Kenya still runs on Lightning. iPhone 11, 12, 13, and 14 handsets move through the second-hand market daily, and iPad 9th generation units sit in classrooms from Strathmore to Moi University. Those owners face a familiar problem. The original adapter died, the replacement bought at a matatu stage stopped working in three weeks, and the cable frayed at the connector. The UGREEN CD137 charging set answers both halves of that problem in one purchase. Sales reps covering Thika Road, radiographers on call at Aga Khan, and students charging between lectures get an adapter and a certified cable that were tested to work as a pair.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya who sell loose adapters with no cable and no paperwork, Mascom International supplies the UGREEN CD137 as a matched set with a written 6-month warranty. Users consistently report that the certified cable survives far longer at the connector than the generic copies sold along Luthuli Avenue. At Mascom International, we're witnessing steady demand for this bundle from buyers who have already replaced two or three cheap chargers this year. Walk into our Kimathi Street counter to test the set on your own phone, or order for pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya.
Common Questions About the UGREEN CD137 Charging Set
Does the UGREEN CD137 plug straight into a Kenyan wall socket?
Yes. The UGREEN CD137 sold at Mascom International uses the three-pin UK plug, the same Type G shape fitted in Kenyan homes, offices, and hotels. No travel adapter is needed. The input range covers 100 to 240 volts at 50 or 60 Hz, so it runs on Kenya's 240V mains without a converter. That also means it works unchanged in Uganda, Tanzania, the United Kingdom, and the UAE, all of which share the same socket format.
How fast does the UGREEN CD137 charge an iPhone?
A Lightning iPhone reaches roughly 50 percent in 30 minutes from empty, about three times the pace of Apple's old 5W cube. The UGREEN CD137 negotiates 9V at 2.22A over Power Delivery, which is the profile iPhones request for rapid charging. Both halves have to cooperate: the 20W adapter and a Lightning cable rated for Power Delivery. The bundled MFi cable is rated for exactly that, which is why the two ship together.
Is the bundled Lightning cable genuinely MFi certified?
Yes. The 1-metre cable carries an official MFi chipset, meaning Apple has licensed and tested the Lightning connector inside it. Uncertified cables throw the "accessory may not be supported" warning after an iOS update, or quietly stop charging. MFi certification is what prevents that. It also affects speed, since only a licensed chip lets an iPhone request the full Power Delivery profile. Mascom International stocks this set precisely because the cable is certified rather than a generic copy.
Which devices work with the UGREEN CD137 charging set?
The adapter feeds anything with a USB-C input up to 20W, and the bundled cable serves every Lightning device. That covers iPhone 8 through iPhone 14, including Pro, Plus, and Pro Max variants, iPad 9th generation, iPad mini 5, AirPods with a Lightning case, and the Magic Keyboard. Swap in a USB-C to USB-C cable and the same adapter handles Samsung Galaxy, Redmi, Tecno, Infinix, Pixel, and Nintendo Switch at their supported wattage.
Is 20W too much for AirPods or a small accessory?
No. Power Delivery is a negotiation, not a fixed push. Adapter and device agree on voltage and current before any electricity flows, so AirPods draw their usual low wattage while an iPhone pulls the full 20W. The 20W figure is a ceiling, not a constant output. Apple applies the same principle in its own 20W adapter. Wireless earbuds, fitness bands, e-readers, and portable speakers all charge normally without heat damage or battery stress.
Why choose this over a cheap unbranded charger from a street stall?
Unbranded adapters sold cheaply around Nairobi often skip protection circuits and use undersized internal components that overheat. The UGREEN CD137 carries UL, PSE, FCC, and CE certification, plus over-voltage, over-current, over-temperature, and short-circuit protection built in. The shell is fireproof PC plastic rather than brittle recycled housing. Mascom International backs the set with a written 6-month warranty and a Kimathi Street counter you can physically walk into when something goes wrong.
How does the UGREEN CD137 handle Kenya's power fluctuations?
The wide 100 to 240 volt input leaves headroom for the voltage swings common on parts of Kenya Power's grid. Over-voltage protection cuts supply when input climbs past safe limits, and over-temperature protection pulls back output before the casing gets hot. Users report the unit staying cool through overnight charging. In areas with frequent surges, Mascom International still suggests plugging into a surge-protected extension board, which we stock separately at our Kimathi Street store.
Can the cable move files, or does it only charge?
It does both. The bundled USB-C to Lightning cable supports 480Mbps data transfer, the same USB 2.0 rate Apple's own Lightning cables handle. Plug an iPhone into a MacBook, an iPad, or a Windows laptop with a USB-C port and photos, videos, and backups copy across normally. A 2GB video file moves in roughly 40 seconds at that rate. The cable also drives wired CarPlay in vehicles with a USB-C head unit.
Technical Specifications
Charging Output and Power Delivery Protocols
- Single USB-C port rated at 20W total, enough for one phone or tablet at full negotiated speed
- Output profiles cover 5V/3A, 9V/2.22A, and 12V/1.67A, matching what iPhone and Android handsets request
- Programmable Power Supply range of 3.3V to 11V at 1.8A allows fine voltage steps that reduce charging heat
- Power Delivery 3.0 and 2.0 support covers iPhone, iPad, Pixel, and most USB-C laptops needing under 20W
- Quick Charge 4.0, 3.0, and 2.0 compatibility handles Qualcomm-based Samsung, Redmi, and Poco devices sold locally
- FCP, SCP, AFC, and BC 1.2 fallback protocols keep older Huawei, Tecno, and Infinix phones charging quickly
- A power tuner chip reads each device's protocol and assigns the correct voltage without user configuration
MFi Cable Construction and Data Transfer
- One metre of nylon-braided cable resists tangling in a bag and holds shape after repeated coiling
- Official MFi chipset licensed by Apple prevents the unsupported-accessory warning that appears after iOS version updates
- Aluminium connector housings dissipate heat better than moulded plastic ends and survive daily plug cycles longer
- Reinforced strain relief at both ends targets the exact point where budget cables usually split and fail
- Multi-layer internal shielding keeps charging stable and blocks interference during file transfers to a laptop
- Rated for 480Mbps data throughput, so photo libraries and iTunes backups move at standard USB 2.0 speed
Device Compatibility Across Apple and Android
- Charges iPhone 8, X, XR, XS, 11, 12, 13, and 14 families through the bundled Lightning cable
- iPad 9th generation, iPad mini 5, and older iPad Air units accept the same Lightning connector directly
- AirPods, AirPods Pro first generation, and Magic Keyboard top up from the identical cable and adapter
- Samsung Galaxy A and S series charge over a separate USB-C cable at their supported Power Delivery rate
- Redmi, Poco, Tecno, Infinix, and itel handsets sold across Kenya draw fast speeds through USB-C cables
- Nintendo Switch, Kindle, fitness bands, and Bluetooth speakers all charge safely at their own lower wattage
Safety Protection and Certification Standards
- Over-voltage protection disconnects output when incoming mains voltage climbs beyond the adapter's rated safe operating band
- Over-current protection limits how much the connected device can draw, guarding battery health during long sessions
- Over-temperature monitoring reduces output before the housing heats to a level that could affect nearby surfaces
- Short-circuit protection cuts power instantly if a damaged cable creates a direct path between conductors
- Fireproof polycarbonate shell resists ignition, a material choice absent from most unbranded adapters sold locally
- Carries UL, PSE, FCC, and CE certification marks, each covering a different regional electrical safety standard
UK Plug Format and Kenyan Mains Compatibility
- Three-pin Type G plug matches every standard Kenyan wall socket, so no adapter block is required
- Fused UK plug design adds a layer of circuit protection that two-pin European adapters simply do not have
- Input accepts 100 to 240 volts, covering Kenya's nominal 240V supply and its normal daily variation
- Square body places weight near the centre, so the adapter sits stable in loose or worn sockets
- Works without modification in Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, the United Kingdom, Ireland, and the UAE during travel
- Suitable for extension boards, surge protectors, and inverter outlets used during Kenya Power outages
Size, Weight, and Everyday Portability
- Compact housing slips into a laptop sleeve pocket alongside the coiled cable without adding noticeable bulk
- White finish resists showing dust picked up from desks, car consoles, and matatu charging points
- Light enough to carry daily in a handbag, backpack, or glovebox without the weight registering
- No moving parts or folding pins, removing the hinge failure that affects many travel-style adapters
- One-metre cable length reaches from a wall socket to a desk, bedside table, or car dashboard
- Set fits comfortably in a shirt pocket for engineers and sales staff moving between client sites daily
