I have lots of A to micro B cables, a couple of A to mini B cables and all manner of adapters to make those work with other stuff.
My last purchase was a pack of micro-B to C adapters so I can use my existing cables to charge my newly-dispatched LT1. That way, I don’t have to worry about losing or forgetting the A to C cable that comes with it.
Exactly, that was the reason for my “Just for fun” comment. Anybody that knows what I do will know that I have a ridiculous about of cables and test gear (That do not prevent that I sometimes are missing a cable).
Does anyone sell a USB cable tester — the kind of thing with multiple sockets and LEDs that verify continuity, and perhaps measure whether the current carried is appropriate?
Because my collection of untrusted dubious flaky cables keeps growing.
same here.
i have a breeding box.
stock it with a male and female of each type and a year later i have 100+
its next to the mealworm and soldier fly boxes(critter food) so they keep each other company.
Well, I hava USB A to nearly everything (C, 2B, 3B, micro B, mini B, Lightning) and one C to C cable. Still missing a good thunderbird 3 cable but those things are pretty expensive.
I also have a whole box of cables, but I am tying to switch to just having usb c (to c). It’s just convinient to have one usb c (pd) cable next to your bed that can quick charge your phone and laptop.
At least 15 A to C chargers in the house at last count. A bunch of A to C, A to micro, and A to apple phone cables. Plus Amazon is full of all of them, and can arrive at my door in two days
I have tons of charging bricks, but it’s hard to keep and find good cables. Cables wear out, so I try to keep a few of each on hand. I’ve got the majority of all standard cables from the last 15 years, but I need to get some C-MicroUSB for the few stragglers that keep using Micro USB.
