USB-C Charger for Kangaroo Joey
USB-C Charger for Kangaroo Joey
Never be without a charger for your Kangaroo Joey pump again.
The USB-C Charger for Kangaroo Joey Pumps allows you to use the same USB Type-C
you already carry around with you for your laptop, phone, headphones and more.
Simply plug one end of the cable into the charger's USB-C port, and the other
end into a charger capable of supplying at least 1.5A and you are all set.
Worried that the battery built into your pump will not last for your
camping trip, vacation, or in an emergency? With this charger you can use
almost any USB charging port to extend your pumps battery.
If the color you want is not offered, reach out to support@tubietech.com
and I will do my best to accommodate (additional charges may apply for
bespoke colors).
The charger is even environmentally friendly! All of the plastics used to make
the charger are derived from plants, and any excess plastic from the production
is composted at a local anerobic digester, saving space in landfills. (Don't worry,
the plastics will not break down outside of an industrial composter)
For best results, the charger needs to be connected to a power supply capable of
outputting 1.5A at 5V. Depending on how full the pump's battery is, and the rate
the battery may slowly discharge if plugged into an less powerful supply.
Using in Cars:
Some traditional USB ports in cars are capable of powering this charger (the ones in the back of our 2018 Honda Pilot are and say so on the cover), however others only supply 0.5 A (the front USB ports for Android Auto / Apple Car Play in our car). If you are unsure, I recommend using a barrel (cigarette lighter) adapter, as these are capable of supplying enough power
Using with Laptops:
It is safe to use this charger on laptops, but using a USB Type-C Port is preferred. Older rectangle USB Ports may not be able to supply enough power to a pump when it is running, but will always charge it if the pump is off. Both the pump and charger will be fine if the laptop cannot supply enough power, so there is no harm in trying.
The listing is for the charger only, and does not include the bags, holder, machine
or cables.

FAQ
Do you offer discounts for bulk orders?
Yes we do. For more information send an email to support@tubietech.com, or use the 'Contact' form on our website
Does this adapter have a built in battery?
No. While the adapter does not include a battery, it allows you to use most USB power banks to extend your pumps runtime
Can I use this adapter to charge the pump from my car?
Yes, with some restrictions. We recommend using a USB 12V adapter that is capable of supplying 2A. Most USB ports in cars only provide 0.5A`-`1A of the 2.4A the pump needs. This may charge the pump slower than normal, or cause it to discharge while plugged in
Will you release versions with Lightning or Micro USB connectors?
No, USB Type-C is quickly becoming the dominant standard for charging. In fact, upcoming legislation in the EU is requiring Apple to replace the Lightning connector with USB Type-C on all devices sold starting in 2024
Will this work with the Kangaroo ePump
Unfortunately this charger does not work with the ePump, and for technical reasons, designing a charging adapter for the ePump is not on our roadmap
