Condition: New

Mascom International stocks the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger at KSh 640, brand new and sealed, a dual-port car charger rated at 43W total output. It pairs one USB-C port with Power Delivery (PD) and one USB-A port with Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 (QC 3.0), so phones that support either standard can fast charge from the matching side. A grey and silver metal body with a light ring sets the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger apart from plain plastic adapters, and a USB to Type-C cable comes in the box. Find it at Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Designed for NGO field staff, sales teams, long-distance drivers and anyone who spends hours behind the wheel, the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger handles the drive that eats your battery. A trip from Nairobi to Mombasa or Kisumu means hours of navigation, calls and music streaming, often on patchy signal that drains a phone faster. A basic 5W adapter adds charge too slowly to keep up with all that. With PD on USB-C and QC 3.0 on USB-A, two passengers with different phones can each charge from the port that suits them, and the bundled cable means the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger works straight out of the box.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell car chargers with no brand and no warranty, Mascom International offers the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger with a 6-month warranty and a shop you can walk back into. Buyers throughout Kenya report that the metal body feels solid in the hand and the light ring makes the socket easy to find after dark. The included cable also saves you a separate purchase, which keeps the total cost down. Stop by Kimathi Street to see the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger in person, or message us on WhatsApp and pay on arrival when it reaches you.
Common Questions About the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger
What is the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger price in Kenya?
The Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger sells for KSh 640 at Mascom International, Nairobi CBD, new and sealed in its retail box. The price includes the dual-port charger, a USB to Type-C cable and a 6-month warranty covering manufacturing defects. You can pay on arrival anywhere in Kenya, or pay by M-Pesa when you collect in store. Against the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger at KSh 680, the ACC-08 costs KSh 40 less and adds a cable, though the ACC-01 prints its per-port ratings on the body.
What do PD and QC 3.0 mean on the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger?
PD and QC 3.0 are two fast-charging standards, and the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger carries one on each port. Power Delivery (PD) runs over the USB-C port and is the standard iPhones, Google Pixel phones and many Samsung models use. Quick Charge 3.0 (QC 3.0) is Qualcomm's standard on the USB-A port, accepted by many Android phones with Snapdragon chips. Your phone and the charger agree on a safe speed automatically. A phone that supports neither standard still charges, just at normal speed.
How does the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger compare with the Amaya ACC-14C Car Charger?
Both chargers pair PD with QC and include a USB to Type-C cable, but the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger is rated at 43W total against 35W for the Amaya ACC-14C Car Charger. The ACC-08 has a grey and silver metal body with a light ring and costs KSh 640. The ACC-14C has a black body and costs KSh 380. Choose the ACC-14C if price matters most and one phone usually charges at a time. Choose the ACC-08 for the higher total rating and the metal finish when two phones share it.
Is the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger safe to use in Kenyan heat on long trips?
Yes, the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger handles normal Kenyan driving, though its metal body can feel warm after hours of charging two phones. That warmth is normal for a charger working hard, and metal lets you feel it more than plastic does. On the hot coast road to Mombasa, keep the cabin ventilated while it runs. When the car sits parked in direct sun, unplug the charger and store it in the glove box. Stop using it if the body ever becomes too hot to hold.
What does electrical safety protection mean on the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger box?
The Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger box states electrical safety protection, a general claim that the charger carries circuitry to guard your phone and your car. The packaging does not break this down into specific protections, so we describe it only at that level. In practice, the phone and charger agree on safe power levels before fast charging starts. If the unit fails through a manufacturing fault within six months, Mascom International handles the claim at our Nairobi CBD service desk.
Which cable comes with the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger, and what does it charge?
The Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger ships with a USB to Type-C cable, which plugs into the QC 3.0 USB-A port and charges any phone with a USB-C socket. That covers Samsung Galaxy A-series phones, Tecno, Infinix, Redmi, Oppo and most Android models sold in Kenya today. To use the PD port as well, you need a separate USB-C to USB-C cable, or USB-C to Lightning for an older iPhone. Mascom International sells compatible cables separately, so a second phone can charge at the same time.
Is the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger good for Uber and Bolt drivers on long shifts?
Yes, the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger suits ride-hailing drivers because two fast-charging ports let a work phone and a personal phone charge together. A typical shift along Waiyaki Way and Ngong Road keeps Google Maps, the Uber or Bolt app and M-Pesa running for hours. Plug each phone into the port whose standard it supports, using the bundled cable for a USB-C Android handset. The light ring also helps you find the socket during night shifts without switching on the cabin light.
Who should buy the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger, and who should skip it?
The Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger fits drivers who want a ready-to-use kit with a cable, two fast-charging standards and a solid metal finish. Families with an iPhone and an Android phone in the same car get a port for each. Skip it if you want each port's wattage printed on the body; the Amaya ACC-01 Car Charger shows 20W and 18W clearly. Skip it if you only need a cheap spare, since the Amaya ACC-10 Car Charger costs KSh 260, and skip it for laptop charging.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Charging Standards
- 43W total output across two ports — shared between both sides when a device is plugged into each.
- USB-C port with Power Delivery (PD) — the fast-charging standard used by iPhone 8 and newer, Google Pixel and many Samsung phones.
- USB-A port with Quick Charge 3.0 (QC 3.0) — Qualcomm's fast-charging standard, common on Android phones with Snapdragon chips.
- Charger and phone negotiate the speed automatically — a phone that supports neither standard still charges at normal speed.
- Two different standards in one plug — an iPhone and an Android phone can each find a fast-charging port.
- Per-port wattage is not printed on the box — the 43W figure is the combined rating for both ports together.
Compatibility
- Fits the standard 12V cigarette-lighter or accessory socket — used in saloon cars, SUVs, pick-ups and most vans.
- Bundled USB to Type-C cable charges any USB-C phone — Samsung, Tecno, Infinix, Redmi, Oppo and many more.
- PD port needs a USB-C to USB-C cable for newer phones — or USB-C to Lightning for iPhone 14 and earlier.
- QC 3.0 port also charges power banks, Bluetooth earphones and dashcams — any device that uses a USB-A lead.
- 24V lorry and bus sockets are not listed on the box — ask Mascom International before fitting one to a heavy vehicle.
Build and Finish
- Grey and silver metal body — feels solid in the hand and stands apart from the usual plastic car adapters.
- Light ring around the face glows when the charger has power — handy for finding the socket on night drives.
- The ring also confirms the socket is live — useful in cars where the accessory socket needs the ignition on.
- Metal shell can feel warm during heavy charging — normal, since metal passes heat to your fingers faster than plastic.
- Plug-in design with no moving parts — it can stay in the socket between trips and lifts out quickly.
Safety and Protection
- Box states electrical safety protection — a general claim of built-in circuitry guarding the phone and the car.
- Specific protections are not itemised on the packaging — read the claim as general rather than a list of guarantees.
- Unplug the charger when the car is parked in strong sun — heat trapped in a closed cabin shortens electronics' life.
- Unplug overnight in cars whose socket stays live with the engine off — this prevents slow drain on a weak battery.
- Replace a frayed or bent cable promptly — damaged leads charge slowly and can heat up at the plug.
Inclusions
- One Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger — new and sealed in its Amaya retail packaging.
- One USB to Type-C cable — ready to charge a USB-C phone from the QC 3.0 port straight away.
- USB-C to USB-C and USB-C to Lightning cables for the PD port — sold separately at Mascom International.
- 6-month Mascom International warranty — covers manufacturing defects under normal use.
- Box carries the 43W rating and both charging standards — easy to check against this page before opening.
Package Contents
Inside the Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger box you get two items: the grey and silver dual-port car charger and a USB to Type-C cable. The cable connects the charger's USB-A port to any phone with a USB-C socket, so most Android owners can start charging the moment they unpack it. If you want to use the PD port as well, add a USB-C to USB-C or USB-C to Lightning cable; Mascom International sells compatible cables separately and can include one in the same delivery.
Warranty
The Amaya ACC-08 Car Charger carries a 6-month warranty through Mascom International, covering manufacturing defects under normal use, such as a port that stops charging or a light ring that fails. Bring the unit to our Nairobi CBD service desk at Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, where claims are handled.
