Similar unit from a different brand that was tripping radio squelch. This one works great with no radio problems.

These 4.2SMARTUSB charging ports by EA Manufacturing work great! Reverse polarity protection, no radio interference, no LED light to ruin your night vision, and nice styling for your panel. Charges my iPad Air 10.5 in flight with no problem.

Excellent value. No noise. I have been using one of these while taking lessons in a C160 Skycatcher. Built a jumper to go from the panel cigarette lighter to this, then use standard iPad cord from this to the iPad. Zero additional noise. Installing two more for rear seat in new build.

Works as expected, not noticing any radio interference

Zero RFI compared to another consumer-grade panel-mount unit that broke through a level 6 squelch on my Icom A4. Now all I have to deal with is RFI generated by the high-frequency DC-DC converters in my consumer-grade LED strobe lights (wing tips and tail).

Works great. Easy installation made every better by directions which state the reqd hole size ( 1.125). They even included the two reqd wire spades. Tested it on one hour flight--zero radio interference. GREAT product!

LOVE IT!! 1/10th the price of others. Very easy to install. Best part of all is that I get no interference on the radios when using it to charge my phone and/or tablet. It also runs my ADS-B receiver. NO RADIO INTERFERENCE !!

These charging jacks just plain work. I have installed three on two experimental aircraft. No radio interference. No surprises. Excellent value.

Does exactly what it is supposed to. No radio or intercom interference. I bought and and installed a second one.

Previous USB power panel was causing profound RF interference and ‘open mic’ condition in my C-182. Contacted the manufacturer and was reassured this item was noise-free. After two-hour XC I can assure you this is a quality panel, at 1/10 the cost of the competition, and is very well shielded from RF interference. Chris E.

Overall very good. There was RFI(static) wwhile using the lower frequencies like 118.2 MHz. Anything above that there wasn’t any RFI.

Q: Does this EA smart dual USB unit have a RFI hash filter?

Yes, the unit has a built-in RFI filter.

Q: How many Amps should the fuse be on a 12V input?

The AMP should be 4.2 total.

Q: Will this unit fit in a 1-1/8 hole for cigarette lighter?

Yes, it should fit in the 1-1/8 hole.

Q: Can it be used on a certified aircraft?

This unit does not have FAA Approval.

Q: Does this unit have built in surge protection?

No, it does not.

Q: How long is the device? Trying to replace a cigarette lighter on a side panel where depth/length of the unit is a concern.

Approx 1-3/4 inches total behind the panel.

Q: What is the Amps and Power Consumption under 28VDC ?

Maximum amps would be about .8 which is 19 Watts. That is with the unit providing the maximum power available. It decreases when the unit is not providing maximum power. Idle current when the unit is not powering anything is about 3 mA.

Q: What is the diameter of the face on the panel? (I understand the threaded body fits a 1-1/8 diameter hole, but the face on the panel side should be larger. Trying to plan out my panel layout. Thanks!)

The OD of the face is 1.45 inch.
