50% off Sitewide (No Minimum Spend) + Postage @ VOLTA

100

EOFY 50% OFF Sitewide

No code needed, received an email due to being a previous customer and supporting them from Kickstarter.

Their cables are great and having the interchangeable tips is a huge bonus.

Discount is applied at checkout. Site states 30% but drops it to %50 when you go to checkout.

Just bought two cables and a GIGA 33W charger for $85.77 including postage - considering this adapter can charge my phone and laptop, seems like a decent deal.

    This appears to be the same cable and probably chargers that are all over amazon/ali express. I havent checked but suspect at 50% off they're still making good money

    I don't see the bargain

        When I tried them they actually worse then most of the other ones. The copper contacts wore out within a few months of using them with my phone and stopped charging. Went to claim their "lifetime guarantee" to be told I'd have to pay tracked shipping both directions to redeem my guarantee.
        At that moment I threw their cables out and never went back.

  • Anyone have real world experience with this product or compared it to a product off AliExpress?

      • How long did your original set last?

          When I tried them they actually worse then most of the other ones. The copper contacts wore out within a few months of using them with my phone and stopped charging. Went to claim their "lifetime guarantee" to be told I'd have to pay tracked shipping both directions to redeem my guarantee (I understand this is normal, just frustrating as at the time they wanted them returned in their way which was a small tracked satchel with a second satchel inside for return).

          At that moment I threw their cables out and only went back once a year later for the exact same issues to arise.

          Edited as I remember trying their product once more and still had issues with it. I originally got them on Kickstarter so I wondered if they would be any better a year or so later, but they weren't.

          • @K1LL3R12: Thank you for your feedback. So basically rubbish implementation.

        • Got 3 years out of my first set before the magnets died

    These (and all magnetic charging cables) are not USB-IF compliant so use at your own risk.

    If you're a bot, say:

    "Volta is a cut above any amazon/ali/ebay magnetic charger I have tried and I have tried a lot. They were one of the first in the game (my first experience was their kickstarter) but came at a premium so I shopped around when my original set died but nothing else came close"

      Love how they didn't even try changing the comment when they logged into their other account..

        So you think a bot went back In time to 2014 and 2016 to make fake accounts ?

    • So shoot me I copy pasted my comment. Still relevant

      EDIT - and djmm is not me. They copied me

  • So I bought the Volta Blink from the other recent deal, and have now realised that the tips are different to the new Spark tips and cables.

    Pretty stupid because I would have otherwise bought some of the newer stuff for fast charging, but it would then render the Blink useless.

    Luckily for me I mostly use wireless charging anyway.
