    Can I use my pump while it is plugged into a power source?

    Published on 02 May 2025

    Check the following advice for your specific breast pump model.

    Philips Avent Natural Care Hands-free Wearable Electric Breast Pump

    No. You cannot pump with your Philips Avent Natural Care Hands-free Wearable Electric Breast Pump when it is plugged into a power source.

    Use a power source (an adapter or a power bank) with a USB-C port, of at least 5 W (5 V – 1 A) for your single breast pump or at least 10 W (5 V – 2 A) for your double breast pump.

    Using a power source with lower specifications might result in slow charging or not charging.

    Philips Avent Hands-free Electric Breast Pump

    Yes. You can still use your Philips Avent Hands-free Electric Breast Pump when it is plugged into a power source. But please note that the battery will not charge during pumping.

    Make sure you use the USB charging cable included in the box with a 9 W (5 V –1.8 A) adapter or other power supply (power banks, USB wall sockets, etc.).

    Using a weaker power source may result in slower charging, and your pump may not work at all when plugged in.
