The other end uses a magnetic pogo pin connector that snaps onto the Dustlight's charging port. A charging cable is included with every Dustlight unit at purchase. This listing is for replacement or spare cables only.
Charging ports on site monitoring equipment collect dust quickly when left uncovered. On a construction site or in a manufacturing environment, that accumulation builds on the contacts inside the port and degrades the charging connection over time. The magnetic connector on this cable covers those contacts when detached, acting as a dust cap between charges. When the cable is needed, the magnetic end snaps onto the port without requiring precise alignment.
Magnetic pogo pin device connector: Snaps onto the Dustlight charging port without precise alignment. When detached, the magnetic housing covers the port contacts and prevents dust ingress between charges.
USB-A connection: Standard Type A plug. Compatible with USB-A power adapters, laptop ports, desktop USB hubs, and most site charging setups. Not USB-C.
70cm cable length: Suitable for bench, desk, or storage area charging. Compact enough to store in a site bag alongside the Dustlight unit.
Replacement specification: Identical to the cable supplied with every Dustlight unit at point of purchase. A direct replacement, not an aftermarket alternative.

This cable is a direct purchase for Dustlight owners who have lost, damaged, or need a spare charging cable. It suits site managers running a Dustlight Mini across a team of workers, where a spare cable kept at the charging point avoids the device going without charge if the original cable is misplaced. It also suits facilities teams managing Dustlight units across multiple sites who keep spare cables at each location.
Replacing a lost or damaged original charging cable to restore full use of the Dustlight Mini between shifts.
Keeping a spare cable at a fixed charging point in a welfare unit or site office so the Dustlight can be charged without the worker returning the cable at the end of each shift.
Providing a cable for each charging station in a multi-unit Dustlight deployment, so individual cables do not need to be moved between charging points.
Charging the Dustlight Mini from a laptop USB-A port or USB hub in a site office or vehicle cab.
Step 1: Connect the USB-A end to a powered USB-A port on a power adapter, laptop, or USB hub.
Step 2: Bring the magnetic end close to the Dustlight's charging port. The magnet will pull the connector into position automatically.
Step 3: Confirm the device is charging by checking the Dustlight's indicator.
Step 4: When charging is complete, detach the magnetic end by pulling it away from the port. The magnetic housing covers the port contacts once detached.
Step 5: Store the cable coiled loosely. Avoid tight bending near the connectors.
Using a USB-C only charger without an adapter: This cable uses USB-A. USB-C-only power adapters and modern laptop ports without USB-A will not accept it directly. A USB-C to USB-A adapter is needed if the only available port is USB-C.
Forcing the magnetic connector on at the wrong angle: The pogo pin connector is directional. It will not charge if placed on the port in the wrong orientation. If the device does not begin charging, rotate the connector 180 degrees and try again.
Storing with the cable tightly coiled: Tight coiling stresses the cable at the connector housing over time. Store loosely and avoid bending sharply at the ends.
Use only with Dustlight personal dust monitors. Do not attempt to use the magnetic pogo pin connector with other devices. Charge from a properly rated USB-A power source. Inspect the cable for damage before each use. Do not use if the cable sheath is cut, kinked, or shows damage near either connector.
Wipe the cable with a dry cloth. Keep the magnetic end free of metal debris, which can accumulate on the magnet and affect the connection. If metal particles collect on the connector face, remove them with a dry cloth or non-metallic pick before charging. Store away from moisture and heat sources.
Q: Is this the same cable that came with my Dustlight?
A: Yes. This is a replacement for the original cable supplied with every Dustlight unit at purchase. It uses the same magnetic pogo pin connector and USB-A connection as the original. It is a direct replacement, not an aftermarket alternative.
Q: My charger only has USB-C ports. Will this cable work?
A: Not directly. This cable uses a USB-A connector. If your only available charging port is USB-C, you will need a USB-A to USB-C adapter to use this cable. Alternatively, any USB-A port on a power adapter, laptop, or USB hub will work without an adapter.
Q: What does the magnetic connector do when the cable is not plugged in?
A: The magnetic housing covers the Dustlight's charging contacts when the cable is detached. This prevents dust from entering the charging port between charges, which matters in construction, manufacturing, and woodworking environments where the Dustlight is in regular use.
Q: Is 70cm long enough for typical charging setups?
A: For bench, desk, or welfare unit charging where the power source is close to the charging point, 70cm is sufficient. It is not suited to charging the device from a distance or routing the cable across a workbench. If a longer cable is needed, a USB-A extension cable can be used between the power source and this cable.
Q: Does this cable transfer data as well as charge?
A: The cable is a charging cable only. It does not transfer data. For syncing Dustlight data, use the Dustlight app via the device's Bluetooth connection.
Q: What is this cable NOT suitable for?
A: It is not suitable for non-Dustlight devices. The magnetic pogo pin connector is specific to the Dustlight charging port. Do not attempt to use it with other equipment.
Q: How do I keep the magnetic connector working reliably on site?
A: Metal swarf, filings, and site debris collect on the magnet and can sit between the connector and the charging contacts, preventing a clean connection. Wipe the connector face with a dry cloth before charging if the device has been used in a metalworking or fabrication environment.
