Knowing The Difference between Wall Charging Vs. 12V Fast Charging
Author : Brittany Lin Team NOCO Leader
NOCO Genius Boost UltraSafe Jump Starters are compatible with wall charging as a method to recharge your unit. By utilizing the USB Charge Cables, charging time of your NOCO Genius Boost will vary depending on the discharge levels and the amperage used to charge the unit. In addition to wall charging, specific models, such as the GB70 and the GB150, have the option of the 12V fast charge as another way to recharge.
By connecting the NOCO Genius Boost 12V Cable into your car's 12V AUX Plug, this will enable the usage of fast charging, which is the fastest method of charging. By charging for 15 minutes with the fast charge, you can use the unit to jump start your vehicle!
