Identical box rating to its cheaper cousin, with finish and lead worth inspecting at our Kimathi Street counter.
Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
Mascom International stocks the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger at KSh 430, brand new and sealed, rated on the box for 18W fast charging through one USB-A port, with a USB to Type-C cable packed alongside. It comes in white and uses the UK 3-pin plug that fits every standard Kenyan wall socket. The Amaya AD018U Wall Charger is made by Amaya, a Chinese mobile-accessories brand, and sits in the AD018 range next to 2A versions with Micro-USB and Lightning cables. Collect yours from the Old Mutual Building on Kimathi Street in Nairobi CBD, or have it delivered.
Designed for M-Pesa agents, shop attendants, nurses on long shifts and university students, the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger handles the phone that cannot be allowed to die. An agent in Kawangware or a kiosk owner in Githurai runs Safaricom transactions all day, and a flat battery means turned-away customers. With an 18W rating, a phone that accepts fast charging over USB-A recovers quickly during a tea break instead of sitting on a weak charger for hours. The Amaya AD018U Wall Charger plugs straight into the wall and charges one handset at a time.
Here is the honest part: the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger carries the same printed 18W rating as the AD017U, which costs KSh 60 less. Where most Nairobi electronics shops would invent a reason for the gap, Mascom International lets you compare the two side by side at the counter and judge the housing, finish and cable for yourself. Buyers throughout Kenya tell us they value that openness more than any sales pitch. Stop by Kimathi Street to hold the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger, or message us on WhatsApp to order with payment on arrival.
Common Questions About the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger
What is the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger price in Kenya?
The Amaya AD018U Wall Charger sells for KSh 430 brand new and sealed at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. You get the charger head, a USB to Type-C cable and 6 months of warranty cover for manufacturing defects. We deliver to every county with payment on arrival. The AD017U, with the same 18W box rating and a Type-C cable, costs KSh 370, which is KSh 60 less, so compare both before you choose.
Why does the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger cost KSh 60 more than the AD017U?
The Amaya AD018U Wall Charger and the AD017U show matching box specifications: 18W, one USB-A port, white, UK 3-pin plug and a USB to Type-C cable. The packaging does not explain the price gap, and we will not make up a reason. Any difference lies in the body design, finish or cable, which you can check yourself at Mascom International. If speed is all you care about, the AD017U saves you money; if you prefer the AD018U's feel, it costs KSh 60 more.
Is the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger good for an M-Pesa agent phone that must stay on all day?
Yes, the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger suits M-Pesa agents and Lipa na M-Pesa tills because quick top-ups keep the transaction phone working between customers. If the phone accepts fast charging over USB-A, a short break on the 18W charger restores a useful amount of battery. Agents in towns such as Nakuru and Machakos often keep a second charger at the shop. Pair it with a power bank for KPLC outages, since no wall charger works while the mains power is off.
Which phones get the full 18W from the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger?
Phones that accept a compatible fast-charge standard over a USB-A cable get the most from the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger. The box does not name the standard, so speed depends on your handset. Any phone with a USB-C port charges from the included cable, and phones built only around USB-C Power Delivery, including iPhone 15 and newer, charge at a standard rate. At Mascom International we test your phone on the charger before you pay, which settles the question in a minute.
Can university students use the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger in a hostel room?
Yes, the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger works in any hostel with UK 3-pin sockets, which covers university residences across Kenya. Students at JKUAT, Kenyatta University and the University of Nairobi often share a single socket among roommates, so a fast top-up helps each person finish sooner. One USB-A port means one device at a time. For a room where two people charge together, the Amaya U110C Wall Charger at KSh 300 has two ports, though it charges each phone more slowly.
Can the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger charge earbuds, a power bank or a Bluetooth speaker?
Yes, the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger powers any gadget that charges from a USB cable, including earbud cases, power banks, Bluetooth speakers and fitness bands. The included cable fits devices with a USB-C input. For gadgets with Micro-USB inputs, use any USB-A to Micro-USB lead in the same port. Each device draws only the current it is designed for, so smaller gadgets simply charge at their own normal pace without any harm from the higher rating.
What should I check in store before buying the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger?
Check three things before buying the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger: that the box is sealed, that the model code reads AD018U, and that the cable end fits your phone. Then ask our staff to place it beside the AD017U so you can compare the body, finish and cable in your own hands. Plug your phone in at the counter to see that it charges. Mascom International is open six days a week, so you can make this check on a lunch break.
Who should buy the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger, and who should skip it?
The Amaya AD018U Wall Charger suits buyers who own a USB-C Android phone, want 18W-rated charging and prefer this model's body or cable after seeing it in store. It also suits agents and shop owners who want a dependable spare. Skip it if price decides everything, because the AD017U has the same box rating for KSh 370. Skip it too if you own a recent iPhone or Galaxy, where the Amaya ACW-U54S Wall Charger, a 20W USB-C PD adapter, is the better fit at KSh 500.
Technical Specifications
Charging Output and Core Function
- 18W fast charging printed on the retail box, well above the 2A, roughly 10W, rating of the AD018C in the same range.
- One USB-A output port, so the whole rating goes to a single phone or gadget at a time.
- Fast charging applies to phones that accept a compatible standard over USB-A; other phones charge at their usual speed.
- Charges phones, tablets, earbud cases, smartwatches, power banks and small speakers through any suitable USB cable.
- Mains-powered directly from the wall socket, so there is no separate brick, lead or adapter in the chain.
- Suits a fixed spot at a shop counter, reception desk or bedside where one phone charges every day.
Phone and Gadget Compatibility
- Included USB to Type-C cable fits USB-C phones from Samsung, Tecno, Infinix, Oppo, Vivo, Realme, Nokia and Redmi.
- iPhone 15 and later accept the Type-C cable and charge at a standard rate, because iPhones fast charge through Power Delivery.
- Micro-USB devices such as older Itel phones, speakers and power banks charge with any USB-A to Micro-USB cable.
- Lightning iPhones need a USB to Lightning cable; the sibling AD018L comes boxed with one for KSh 400.
- USB-C tablets charge from the same cable, taking longer than a phone because their batteries are much larger.
- In-store testing at Mascom International shows exactly how your own phone behaves on the charger before payment.
Build, Plug and Finish
- UK 3-pin plug, known as Type G, matching the standard sockets in Kenyan homes, offices, hostels and shops.
- White housing, the same colour as the AD017U, with any finish differences best judged by holding both in store.
- Single-port body that keeps the charger simple, with no extra outputs to share or confuse the power rating.
- Brand new and factory sealed in Amaya retail packaging, with the AD018U model code printed for easy checking.
- Covered by the Mascom International 6-month warranty for manufacturing defects, with claims at our Nairobi CBD desk.
What Comes in the Box
- One Amaya AD018U Wall Charger head with a single USB-A port and a UK 3-pin plug.
- One USB to Type-C cable, matching the charging port on most Android phones sold in Kenya.
- The sealed Amaya retail box, which you inspect unopened before paying on delivery.
- No car charger, second cable or Lightning lead is included with this model.
- Replacement cables in Type-C, Micro-USB and Lightning are sold separately at Mascom International.
Care and Daily Use
- Pull the charger from the socket when storms roll in or the power keeps flickering, protecting both charger and phone.
- Avoid leaving it in hot spots such as a sunny shop window, because heat wears down any charger over time.
- Keep the plug and port free of dust and moisture, especially at open-air stalls during the long rains.
- Swap out a cable once its outer jacket splits, since a damaged lead charges unevenly and can fail suddenly.
- Store the cable in loose loops instead of tight wraps, which spares the stress point beside each connector.
Package Contents
Inside the sealed Amaya retail box you will find the Amaya AD018U Wall Charger, a white head with one USB-A port and a UK 3-pin plug, together with a USB to Type-C cable. Those two pieces are the full contents, and they are enough to start charging most USB-C Android phones the moment you open the box. Bring your phone along if you need a different cable, and Mascom International will help you choose a lead that fits it.
Warranty
The Amaya AD018U Wall Charger carries a 6-month warranty from Mascom International covering manufacturing defects under normal use. That cover includes the charger head and its included cable. Bring any faulty unit to our Nairobi CBD service desk, where we handle every claim directly.
