Keeps two phones topped up on every drive, from Nairobi jams to long highway trips upcountry.
Condition: New

The Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger is available at Mascom International for KSh 680, brand new and sealed, with 38W of combined output from two ports. One USB-C port delivers up to 20W through Power Delivery (PD), and one USB-A port is rated at 18W, so a phone and a second device can charge side by side. The Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger plugs into the standard 12V cigarette-lighter or accessory socket found in most cars, and a blue LED ring shows it is live. You can pick one up at our shop in Old Mutual Building on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Built for Uber, Bolt and Little drivers, matatu crews, sales reps and families on the road across Kenya, the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger answers a common problem. Google Maps, a ride-hailing app and M-Pesa notifications drain a phone fast, and an old 5W car adapter cannot keep up while the screen stays on. Sitting in a Thika Superhighway jam with a nearly flat battery is stressful when the next fare depends on it. With 20W on the USB-C side, an iPhone or Android phone that supports PD keeps gaining charge during navigation, while the USB-A port handles a passenger's phone or a dashcam.
Unlike the unbranded car chargers sold at petrol stations and roadside stalls, the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger states its port ratings clearly, so you know what each socket can deliver before you buy. Mascom International sells it with a 6-month warranty and a walk-in shop where you can return with any problem. Customers across Nairobi tell us the clearly marked ports and the LED ring, which makes the charger easy to find at night, are what sold them. Visit us in the CBD to test the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger, or order on WhatsApp for pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya.
Common Questions About the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger
How much is the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger in Kenya?
The Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger costs KSh 680 at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD, sold new and sealed. That price covers the charger with its 20W USB-C PD port and 18W USB-A port, plus a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects. No cable comes in the box, so budget for a USB-C or USB-A lead if you do not already keep one in the car. Delivery is pay-on-arrival across Kenya. The Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger costs KSh 40 less and includes a cable.
Can the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger fast charge an iPhone?
Yes, the USB-C port on the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger delivers up to 20W PD, the fast-charging standard iPhones use. iPhone 8 and later accept PD fast charging; use a USB-C to Lightning cable for older models or a USB-C to USB-C cable for iPhone 15 and newer. Neither cable is included. Samsung Galaxy phones also charge from PD, though their top Super Fast Charging speeds need a PPS charger, and the box does not list PPS. The USB-A port suits older phones and Micro-USB devices.
How does the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger compare with the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger?
The Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger prints clear per-port ratings of 20W USB-C and 18W USB-A, while the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger offers 43W total with Quick Charge 3.0 on its USB-A port. The ACC-08 costs KSh 640, comes with a USB to Type-C cable and has a grey metal body. The ACC-01 costs KSh 680, has a black body with a blue LED ring and ships without a cable. Pick the ACC-08 if you need a cable. Pick the ACC-01 if you already own good cables and want each port's output stated plainly.
Will the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger work in matatus, trucks and ordinary cars in Kenya?
The Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger fits the standard 12V cigarette-lighter or accessory socket found in saloon cars, SUVs, pick-ups and most vans on Kenyan roads. The socket size is the same across the Toyota, Nissan, Mazda and Subaru models common here. Lorries, buses and some large matatus run 24V electrics, and the box does not state 24V support, so confirm with us on WhatsApp before using it in one. When you park in the sun along Mombasa Road, unplug the charger, since heat builds fast in a closed cabin.
Can I charge two phones at once with the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger?
Yes, both ports on the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger work at the same time, with 20W on USB-C and 18W on USB-A for 38W in total. A driver can run Google Maps through the USB-C port while a passenger charges on USB-A. Because 20W plus 18W adds up to the 38W total, the box rating indicates both ports can run at full output together. Each phone draws only what it supports, so an older handset that accepts 10W simply charges at 10W without harm.
Will the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger drain my car battery?
An idle Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger draws only a small current, but the blue LED ring stays lit whenever the socket has power. In many cars the accessory socket switches off with the ignition, so the charger goes dark too. Some vehicles keep the socket live with the engine off, and there the LED and any connected phone keep drawing from the battery. If your car is one of these, unplug the charger overnight or when parking for several days, especially with an older battery.
Is the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger good for powering a dashcam?
The 18W USB-A port of the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger can run a USB-powered dashcam, GPS unit or Bluetooth receiver while the USB-C port charges your phone. A typical USB dashcam needs far less than 18W, so the port has room to spare. Check that your dashcam uses a USB plug rather than a hardwired kit, and route its lead along the windscreen edge so it does not block your view. Taxi drivers in Nairobi use this setup to record trips and keep a phone charged together.
Who should buy the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger, and who should skip it?
The Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger suits drivers who already own decent cables and want a USB-C PD port for a recent iPhone or Android phone, plus a second port for a passenger. It also fits anyone who wants a visible light to find the socket at night. Skip it if you need a cable in the box; the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger includes one for less money. Skip it too if you want to charge a laptop from the car, since 20W on USB-C is too little for most laptops.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Charging Output
- 38W total output across two ports — enough to charge a phone and a second device at the same time on the road.
- USB-C port rated at 20W with Power Delivery (PD) — the open fast-charging standard used by iPhones and many Android phones.
- USB-A port rated at 18W — the classic rectangular port that fits the older cables most Kenyan households still own.
- Fast charging needs a capable phone and a capable cable — a thin, worn cable can limit speed on either port.
- Each port supplies only what the connected device requests — a phone that accepts 10W simply charges at 10W.
- Two ports in one plug — the driver and a passenger no longer take turns on the single accessory socket.
Compatibility
- Plugs into the standard 12V cigarette-lighter or accessory socket — found in saloon cars, SUVs, pick-ups and most vans.
- USB-C PD port suits iPhone 8 and newer with the right cable — plus Samsung, Google Pixel and other PD phones.
- Tecno, Infinix and Itel phones charge at the standard speed they accept — through either port with their own cable.
- USB-A port powers Bluetooth earphones, power banks, dashcams and GPS units — anything that uses a USB-A lead.
- Tablets charge too — a large tablet fills more slowly at 20W than on a higher-wattage USB-C adapter.
- 24V support is not stated on the box — confirm with Mascom International before using it in a lorry or bus.
Build and Design
- Black body — blends into most dashboards and hides dust and fingerprints better than white plastic does.
- Blue LED ring around the face lights when the charger has power — so you can find the ports at night.
- The ring doubles as a power check — you can see at a glance whether the socket is live before plugging in.
- Ports are marked PD 20W USB-C and USB-A 18W on the body — so you always know which side is faster.
- Plug-in design with no loose parts — it can stay in the socket between trips and comes out in seconds.
Safety and Everyday Use
- Unplug the charger when parked in strong sun — closed cabins trap heat, and heat ages all electronics.
- Start the engine before plugging in your phone — the voltage dip during cranking can interrupt charging.
- Use cables in good condition — a frayed lead is a frequent cause of slow or stopped charging in cars.
- Remove the charger in cars whose socket stays live with the engine off — this protects a weak battery.
- Keep the ports free of dust and crumbs — debris can stop a plug seating fully and cut charging speed.
Inclusions
- One Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger — new and sealed in its Amaya retail box.
- No charging cable in the box — bring your own lead or add one to your order.
- USB-C to Lightning, USB-C to USB-C and USB-A to Type-C cables — sold separately at Mascom International.
- Covered by a 6-month Mascom International warranty — protection against manufacturing defects under normal use.
- Retail packaging lists the 38W rating and port markings — you can check the specification before opening.
Package Contents
The Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger box holds the charger alone: one dual-port car charger in black with its blue LED ring. There is no cable, so plan to use the leads you already own or pick up a matching one with your order. A USB-C to USB-C or USB-C to Lightning cable unlocks 20W PD charging, while any USB-A lead works on the 18W port. Mascom International sells compatible cables separately, and we can pair one with your charger on the same pay-on-arrival delivery.
Warranty
Mascom International backs the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger with a 6-month warranty covering manufacturing defects, such as a dead port, a failed LED ring or a unit that will not power on under normal use. Claims are handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk in Old Mutual Building on Kimathi Street.
