Jonty WareingThis is a reversible USB-A to reversible micro-usb cable.
Where is your god now.
Heather 👻@jonty ... On the USB-A does the middle just flop to the correct side? Is it like a floppy tongue??

Sebi ✓@k Neat *notes that*
I use magnetic connectors on all my USB-C Devices that allow me the full rates of that connector up to 140W and Thunderbolt 2 (probably also 3, but i don't use that). Sadly my kind of connectors does not come with other usb connectors. I also haven't found a system that offers all usb-c functionality, but still has a other Adapters on offer. So i still have different adapters around for cheaper gadgets.Specially Custom Adapters are annoying.Like Watch Chargers :/

QUOTE: I am not saying that these cables do not exist or that they do not work as claimed however there is an inherent risk when using these cables and that will fall onto the reader to decide for themselves.

intru@intru I _think_ usb-c display port is the downgrade default, but also TB2 has its own implementation for it imo. But i don't have a source for it and its just my believe. I have a ryzen cpu/agpu/nvidia gpu notebook from 2019 with usb-c display port and it did not work with a Dell USB-C Dock that does at least TB2 for Intel Notebook and also a different Lenovo TB2 dock gives me trouble with this notebook. A USB-C DP Adapter just works with that notebook.Testen without magnet things /cc @k @jonty

Григорий КлюшниковThat USB-A plug doesn't look like it would make a very reliable contact but I'd be happy to be wrong.
I'd also be happy to have as few USB-A and micro-USB devices in my life as possible.

Not a Spring Onion"Back in the day, we wanted to make the cable cheap, we simply didn't have money to put a chip in."
