Lava SimulCharge Adapters for Tablets

Leading Solutions are authorised New Zealand resellers of Lava, a global innovator in smart charging technology best known for the SimulCharge system. Lava's SimulCharge adapters solve a critical challenge for tablet deployments: they allow an iPad or Android tablet to charge and transfer data simultaneously via a single USB or Lightning/USB-C connection - something standard adapters cannot do. Their products are built for demanding commercial use across retail, hospitality, corporate, and event environments throughout New Zealand.

Lava SimulCharge adapters are the go-to solution for any fixed tablet installation where the device must remain constantly powered while connected to peripherals such as barcode scanners, card readers, or POS systems. If you're building a kiosk, self-service station, or interactive display, Lava ensures your tablet stays charged and responsive around the clock.

Leading Solutions stocks Lava SimulCharge adapters and accessories with fast dispatch from Auckland. For volume orders or commercial fitouts, explore our trade partner programme.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Lava SimulCharge adapter and how does it work?

A Lava SimulCharge adapter is a device that connects to an iPad or Android tablet's charging port and allows it to charge and communicate with USB peripherals at the same time. Without SimulCharge, plugging in a charger typically disables the data connection. Lava's technology routes both power and data simultaneously through a single connection, making it essential for always-on kiosk and POS tablet deployments.

Which tablets are compatible with Lava SimulCharge adapters?

Lava produces SimulCharge adapters for a wide range of tablets, including Apple iPads (Lightning and USB-C models) and select Android tablets. Compatibility varies by model and connector type, so it is important to confirm the specific iPad generation or Android device before ordering. Leading Solutions can assist with compatibility checks for your deployment.

Can I use a Lava SimulCharge adapter with a barcode scanner or card reader?

Yes. Lava SimulCharge adapters are specifically designed for use with USB peripherals like barcode scanners, magnetic stripe readers, receipt printers, and card readers while keeping the tablet charged. This makes them the preferred choice for retail POS, hospitality ordering systems, and self-service kiosks in New Zealand.

Do Lava products come with a warranty, and what support is available in NZ?

Lava products sold by Leading Solutions include a manufacturer's warranty. As authorised New Zealand resellers, Leading Solutions provides local pre-sales support, compatibility advice, and after-sales assistance. Contact our Auckland team on 09-979-5479 for product queries or warranty claims.
