Nomad Ultra-Rugged Universal Cable For iPhone And iPad – A Quick Review

My charging cables take a beating. People step over them, roll chairs atop them, and sometimes they even get stuck in between airplane seats or tangled behind hotel bedroom nightstands and desks due to strange power outlets.

  • Multi-Tip Charging Options.
  • 20AWG For Speed Charging.
  • Tear-Resistant Ballistic Nylon.
  • Extra Thick Wire Gauge And Robust Made With Kevlar.
  • Double PVC Protected Jacket.

These new ultra-rugged cables from Nomad are not only durable, but they feature universal charging thanks to multiple power docks.

This is a great gift for road warriors as it keeps your cords consolidated, and since there is a clip to keep the various ends together, there is little tangling.

It features charging for iPhone 5 through 7 models plus iPad mini 2 through 4 models , iPad Air 1 and 2 models, and iPad Pro.

With manufacturers out to squeeze more money from consumers by constantly changing the power cables, this makes a great, affordable investment since it charges multiple things. It is perfect for families or offices that often send travelers with different devices places.

The charging power is excellent, and it can power devices rapidly, which is ideal for those charging devices between meetings or flights. Nomad says that it put its cables through military-grade tests to guarantee their long-lasting durability.

It surely pays off thanks to its quadruple force Kevlar coating and rugged nylon exterior.

Another unique thing about this cable is that with multiple cables often plugged into one row of outlets in an office or airport, you run less of a risk of someone thinking it belongs to them because it looks quite different.

Think of it; if you get a new phone or tablet, this universal charging cable would still work. There’s also a USB port, which adds to its usability.
