I have used many car chargers and found this to be the only one that doesn&#8217;t cause static noise during charging while listening to radio stations.<\/p>\n<h3>What makes ZUS a Smart Charger?<\/h3>\n<p>The Smart Device Detection technology built into each ZUS Smart Car Charger will charge your USB devices at 2X speed. With its innovative smart device detection technology, ZUS detects what device it&#8217;s charging and delivers the maximum amperage accepted by that device, enabling it to charge at faster speeds.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-31919\" src=\"\/\/www.freeautomechanic.com\/mechanic\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/smart-device-detection-zus.jpg\" alt=\"ZUS Smart Device Detection\" width=\"647\" height=\"498\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freeautomechanic.com\/mechanic\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/smart-device-detection-zus.jpg 647w, https:\/\/www.freeautomechanic.com\/mechanic\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/smart-device-detection-zus-300x231.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 647px) 100vw, 647px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>ZUS Car Locator<\/h3>\n<p>Each ZUS Smart Car Charger is equipped with Bluetooth technology. Bluetooth allows the connection between a Smart Phone and ZUS Smart Charger and acts as a homing signal. A quick download of the app onto the phone and the Locator is ready when you are. Plug ZUS in and follow the steps on the phone. Park the car and let ZUS remember where you left it. Be guided within feet of your car. A little difficult when at a parking garage as it doesn&#8217;t know what floor you were on. So make sure to remember the floor but feel comfortable letting ZUS guide you the rest of the way.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-31928\" src=\"\/\/www.freeautomechanic.com\/mechanic\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/zus-car-locator-1.jpg\" alt=\"ZUS Car Locator\" width=\"585\" height=\"706\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freeautomechanic.com\/mechanic\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/zus-car-locator-1.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.freeautomechanic.com\/mechanic\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/zus-car-locator-1-249x300.jpg 249w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 585px) 100vw, 585px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>ZUS Locator App Software<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Android &#8211; ZUS app requires a mobile device with Android 4.3 or newer<\/li>\n<li>iPhone &#8211; ZUS app requires a mobile device with iOS 7.1 or newer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong> &#8211; ZUS Smart Car Charger Specifications<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently I was given the opportunity to try out some new innovative technology.
