Do you have an excessive amount of charging cables laying around?


I finally got rid of all my other charging cables. I just picked up an adapter for USB-C to Micro USB for the two devices I have which are stuck in the past. This should make travelling and sorting cables much less of a headache.

Does that adapter slow down the connection transfer time or charge time?

According to the reviews it does not, it is specifically made only for charging and data transfer.

Maybe that European law will finally force their hand, guess we just wait and see. For now I am done using Apple devices.

Also I found this in the description if it helps:
  • Fast Charge SyncSupports up to 2.4A of power and provides a maximum data transfer rate of 480Mbps.

For me it is if you don't count the one adapter to micro I suppose. I even went out of my way to buy this:

I used to have like ten of then, but some how in the last month I've either lost or broken all but a couple and actually need to buy more.

Somehow after one I've used for four or so years to charge my phone got worn out and started fraying, all the other ones did immediately after. No idea how either.

Yeah it makes things so much easier. The two devices I have which are still micro are (1) a rechargeable AAA battery for a micro-trimmer and (2) an led headlamp, so these adapters will reduce cable clutter. My phone, laptop, vaping device are USB-C which is pretty much my big 3 for shit I need to keep charged.

Yeah I'm definitely not opposed to wirelessly charging as much as possible, but it leaves more bulk to go in my bag if I'm travelling unfortunately.

The adapters work well, even with higher power USB-C cables. Here's one working to charge my micro-usb AAA battery for my micro-trimmer off of a 30W USB-C source. It steps down the power fine, no problems whatsoever.

Lightning was way better than previous usb versions, but with USB-C, theres no longer any point to it.

Add in the annoyance with phone companies not including the power brick with the, white still requiring bricks with new power architecture or whatever. Such as QC, or PD-epp.
So I'm also upgrading my power bricks and old USB cables.

Same here on cables. I have two plugged into a power strip, both are 30W - my laptop charges fine on 30W so that's basically all I need. The bricks are more compact than the 45W+ counterparts. When I travel all I need to do is unplug them, along with the USB-C to USB-C cables and go. Basically anything for charging that wasn't those two cables I've managed to get rid of.

Yeah this is annoying admittedly. In 2021 I upgraded both of my power bricks because of this. One of them I had to buy for my phone because it no longer came bundled with the brick.
