Drivers who use smartphones and tablets from Apple as navigators complain that the battery of the devices is discharged quickly enough and they charge them from the car cigarette lighter, which, of course, is quite convenient, but dangerous for the battery.
Apostrophe writes how to properly charge an iPhone, iPad while traveling in a car.
For its mobile devices, Apple uses Lightning ports, while most gadget manufacturers install Type-C devices. And the main problem is that Tim Cook's company does not produce cigarette lighter adapters at all, so drivers use "alternative" ones, from Chinese "nonames" or more or less reliable manufacturers.

Moreover, when charging, it is advisable to use original cables certified according to Apple standards, as evidenced by the "MFI" mark - that is, "Made For iPhone" or iPad, or iPod.
It is not worth keeping the phone connected to the cigarette lighter when starting the engine, because at this moment there may be voltage surges coming from the car battery to the starter and other electrical equipment.
In an emergency, the car radio's USB connector can be used to power your phone, but here you should also be aware of power surges at the time of starting the motor.
Therefore, according to experts, the easiest and safest way to charge Apple equipment outside the home is from a power bank. This should be done when the charge level approaches the 30 percent mark.
