Condition: New

Amaya ACD-L30 USB to Lightning Cable is available at Mascom International for KSh 360, a 1-metre soft silicone cord rated for up to 2.4A, brand new and sealed in its retail box. The Amaya ACD-L30 USB to Lightning Cable plugs into a standard USB-A charger, power bank or laptop port on one end and a Lightning iPhone, iPad or AirPods case on the other. It charges your device and moves photos, music and files to a computer. Amaya is a Chinese mobile-accessories brand, and you can collect this cable at our shop in the Old Mutual Building on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Built for iPhone owners across Kenya who are tired of replacing cheap cables every few weeks, the Amaya ACD-L30 USB to Lightning Cable suits students, sales teams, journalists and anyone whose phone lives in a pocket. Hard plastic leads tend to crack near the plug after months of bending in matatu seats and boda boda jacket pockets. The silicone jacket on this cable stays soft, coils without kinking and wipes clean of dust in seconds. When KPLC cuts power and you only get a short window at a socket or power bank, a cable that connects properly every time is worth having.
Where many stalls along Luthuli Avenue and River Road sell loose, unbranded Lightning cables with no box and no comeback, Mascom International sells the Amaya ACD-L30 USB to Lightning Cable sealed, at a fixed price, with a 6-month warranty. Customers across Nairobi tell us the soft cord on the Amaya ACD-L30 USB to Lightning Cable is the first thing they notice, because it feels nothing like a roadside spare. Visit the shop to see and handle it before paying, or order on WhatsApp and pay on arrival anywhere in Kenya.
Common Questions About the Amaya ACD-L30 USB to Lightning Cable
How much is the Amaya ACD-L30 USB to Lightning Cable in Kenya?
The Amaya ACD-L30 USB to Lightning Cable costs KSh 360 brand new at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price covers the 1-metre silicone cable in its sealed retail box and a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects. No wall adapter is included, so you use the USB-A charger or power bank you already own. Delivery is pay-on-arrival across all 47 counties. The Type-C to Lightning Amaya ACD-CL30 from the same silicone range also costs KSh 360, while the basic plastic Amaya ACD-L77 costs KSh 110.
Which iPhones and devices work with the Amaya ACD-L30?
The Amaya ACD-L30 USB to Lightning Cable works with any Apple device that has a Lightning port, from iPhone 5 through iPhone 14, plus older iPads and Lightning AirPods cases. Lightning is the small, flat plug Apple used before it moved to USB-C. The other end is USB-A, the classic rectangular plug found on most wall chargers, power banks, car chargers and laptops. It will not fit iPhone 15 or later, because those models charge through a USB-C port instead.
Does the Amaya ACD-L30 fast-charge an iPhone?
The Amaya ACD-L30 USB to Lightning Cable is rated for up to 2.4A, which is the most current it can carry rather than a promise of speed. Your real charging speed depends on the charger and the phone. Lightning iPhones fast-charge only through USB-C Power Delivery, so any USB-A charger gives standard speed. If quick top-ups matter most, the Amaya ACD-CL30 Type-C to Lightning Cable at KSh 360, paired with the 20W Amaya ACW-U54S Wall Charger at KSh 500, is the quicker setup.
How does the Amaya ACD-L30 compare with the Amaya ACD-L33?
The Amaya ACD-L30 USB to Lightning Cable and the Amaya ACD-L33 both cost KSh 360 and both carry up to 2.4A, so the choice comes down to feel and length. The ACD-L30 uses a soft, round silicone cord at 1 metre. The ACD-L33 uses zinc-alloy plugs and a flat braided cord at 1.2 metres. Pick the ACD-L30 if you want something light and bendy that coils neatly into a pocket. Pick the ACD-L33 if you need the extra 20cm or prefer a braided, metal-tipped finish.
Is the Amaya ACD-L30 good for charging from a power bank during KPLC outages?
The Amaya ACD-L30 USB to Lightning Cable fits the USB-A port found on almost every power bank sold in Kenya, so it keeps an iPhone running through KPLC outages. The 1-metre length lets the phone sit on a desk or your lap while the power bank stays in a bag. Shop owners and M-Pesa agents who must keep a phone alive all day often keep a power bank and spare cable ready for blackouts. The soft cord also handles daily folding into a bag pocket well.
Why choose a silicone cord over a normal plastic cable?
A silicone cord, like the one on the Amaya ACD-L30 USB to Lightning Cable, stays soft and bendy where standard PVC plastic tends to stiffen and split near the plug. Silicone is a rubber-like material that feels smooth, resists tangles and wipes clean easily, which helps with dust and sweat. Plastic cables such as the Amaya ACD-L77 at KSh 110 do the same basic job for less money but feel harder in the hand. You pay KSh 250 more for the softer, more pleasant handling of the ACD-L30.
Can I transfer photos to a computer with the Amaya ACD-L30?
The Amaya ACD-L30 USB to Lightning Cable carries data as well as power, so it links an iPhone or iPad to a Windows PC or Mac. Use it to back up photos, move music, or update your phone software through iTunes or the Finder. Students printing assignments at cyber cafés along Moi Avenue often need exactly this, since most café computers still have USB-A ports. Unlock the phone and tap Trust when it asks, and the computer will see your files.
Who should buy the Amaya ACD-L30, and who should skip it?
The Amaya ACD-L30 USB to Lightning Cable suits owners of iPhone 14 and earlier, older iPads or Lightning AirPods who charge from USB-A adapters, car chargers or power banks. It also makes a sensible spare for the office drawer, the car or a school bag. Skip it if you own iPhone 15 or later, since those need a USB-C lead such as the Amaya ACD-CC30 Type-C to Type-C Cable. Skip it too if you want the quickest iPhone charging; the ACD-CL30 with a USB-C PD charger suits you better.
Technical Specifications
Core Function
- Rated for up to 2.4A charging current — that is the most the cable can carry; your actual speed depends on the charger and device.
- USB to Lightning connection — draws power from a USB-A socket and feeds it to an iPhone, iPad or AirPods charging case.
- Charging and data in one lead — sync photos, music and backups with a computer without swapping to a different cable.
- Labelled Super Fast Data Cable on the box — a full charge-and-sync lead rather than a charge-only cable that a computer cannot see.
- Works from wall adapters, car chargers, power banks and laptop ports — anything with the classic rectangular USB-A socket will power it.
- Standard charging speed on iPhones — Lightning fast charging needs USB-C Power Delivery, which the Type-C to Lightning ACD-CL30 offers instead.
Compatibility
- Lightning plug — the small, flat, reversible Apple connector found on every model from iPhone 5 through iPhone 14, so it fits either way up.
- Older iPads with a Lightning port — charge and sync tablets bought before Apple moved its iPad range across to USB-C.
- AirPods charging cases with a Lightning port — top up your earbuds from the same lead you use for your phone each night.
- USB-A end — the classic rectangular plug, so it fits older chargers and power banks that a Type-C to Lightning cable cannot use.
- Windows PCs and Macs with USB-A ports — plug in to back up photos, move files or update your iPhone software.
- Not for iPhone 15 and later — those phones use a USB-C port, so choose a Type-C cable from the same silicone range instead.
Build
- Soft silicone cord — a rubber-like jacket that stays flexible over time, so it bends and coils without stiffening or splitting near the plugs.
- 1000mm length — exactly 1 metre, enough to keep using the phone from a bed, sofa or desk while it charges.
- Black and grey finish — darker tones that hide dust and everyday grime from pockets, bags and car dashboards much better than white cables.
- Tangle-resistant surface — smooth silicone slides apart easily instead of knotting into a ball at the bottom of a backpack.
- Easy to clean — wipe the cord with a damp cloth to remove dust, sweat or hand cream, then let it dry before plugging in.
- Coils neatly — loop it around two fingers and it sits flat in a shirt pocket, pencil case or laptop bag pouch.
Inclusions
- One Amaya ACD-L30 USB to Lightning Cable — 1 metre, soft silicone cord, packed and sealed in the Amaya retail box.
- No wall adapter in the box — use any USB-A charger you already own, or ask our team to match one to your device.
- Sealed retail packaging — the box arrives unopened, so you can confirm the cable is brand new before you pay for it.
- 6-month Mascom International warranty — covers manufacturing defects under normal use, with claims handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk.
- Pay-on-arrival delivery — order on WhatsApp and pay only when the cable reaches you, in any of the 47 counties.
