Cables


I won't list prices here since they fluctuate a lot. Some of the chargers listed above have a non-removable cable. All the others (except the iPad charger) require a USB C-to-C cable.

USB C-to-C: For the Macbook, Google, SONEic, and battery pack chargers listed above. Here are a few on Amazon: AmazonBasics,
Anker, Cable Matters, Aukey.

USB A-to-C: The iPad charger is the only one that gives good charging speeds with these. The 5ft cable included with the Pro Controller works. Here are some others on Amazon: AmazonBasics, Anker, Cable Matters, Aukey.

No matter which charger you use, it doesn't matter whether the cable says it's USB 2.0, USB 3.0, or USB 3.1. They all charge at the same speed. Just make sure it has the correct plug shape on each end, that it has good reviews at a reputable merchant, and that it's long enough for how you want to use it.

u/aroloki1 · 11 pointsr/NintendoSwitch

This means that as long as you are using a type-c to type-c charger or a type-a to type-c charger that uses a cable that 100% sure has the 56k ohm resistor then most probably you are fine with any kind of dock.

Of course do not take this as a promise from my side and use these docks at your own risk, but as far as we know this is the actual issue behind the bricked Switches (and many bricked USB-C laptops).

Amazon points out if a cable has the necessary resistor, for example: https://www.amazon.com/Charger-Anker-PowerLine-Pull-up-Resistor/dp/B01E9W8KYC/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1527282413&sr=8-3&keywords=56k+ohm+resistor+usb+c

u/Pottiland9 · 9 pointsr/GalaxyS9

Don't use that

I'd say go with the OEM (Samsung ones) or Anker fast charge ones

Btw I don't think Samsung fucked us

I'm glad we have type C it's Innovation it's the future

Usb c is better in every way except cost for now

u/browndizzle · 7 pointsr/NintendoSwitch

My suggestion for everyone, reasonable price and high quality (brand tested by the Google Engineer, approved. I also tested the outputs with my own multimeter and noted they meet spec after reading all about his comments):

6 ft USB 3 to USB-C:
https://www.amazon.ca/Anker-PowerLine-Resistor-Including-ChromeBook/dp/B01E9W8KYC/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1485529618&sr=8-3&keywords=anker+usb-c

3 pack 6ft USB 3 to USB-C:
https://www.amazon.ca/Anker-PowerLine-Resistor-Including-ChromeBook/dp/B01HF0YGCK/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1485529618&sr=8-5&keywords=anker+usb-c

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B014ZO46LK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1


edit: I was intrigued by the power meter linked above from satechi. I ordered it, will test that device to and see what the devices/cables I have output through it. Probably take more than a week to get to Canada, and it cost an arm and a leg to ship.

u/krishnugget · 5 pointsr/OculusQuest

Edit: Nevermind I found it on oculus’ website
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01E9W8KYC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_McW0Db097XB93

Yeah I couldn’t find it on UK after a while of searching. I did find this one

u/TalonX273 · 4 pointsr/OculusQuest

Might be a difference in hardware, but I'm actually floored at how little latency there is. Any latency I felt I could effortlessly compensate for. Via Link, I played my usual Beat Saber Expert + maps on Steam VR. It felt damn near identical to my CV1 (tri-sensor setup) allowing me to get my usual scores. What really surprised me was the lack of occasional stuttering in Beat Saber I normally got from my CV1 setup. I can only describe what team Oculus has done as pure black magic! Like you said though, it's not on the level of an Index PCVR setup. But holy crap, at the price point and added portability, it's more than good enough for most!

For reference, my setup is: i5-3570K, GTX 1060 6GB, Inatek 4-port USB 3 PCI card, CableCreations USB 3 Active extension cable, and Anker 6ft USB C-to-3.0 cable. Might order the 10ft cable for more mobility.

u/jmnugent · 3 pointsr/applehelp

USB-C is the shape/design of the end-connector.

USB 3.0 is the specification for cabling/data-transfer.

What you need there is a USB-A to USB-C cable like this: https://www.amazon.com/Anker-PowerLine-Resistor-Including-ChromeBook/dp/B01E9W8KYC/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1486392629&sr=8-13&keywords=usb-a+to+usb-c

u/Adit9989 · 3 pointsr/lgv30

Look for a cable which specify that it has a"56K" resistor . The charger must be able to detect that it can do fast charging, if not will just do standard charge. Something like this one: https://www.amazon.com/Anker-Charger-Powerline-Pull-up-Resistor/dp/B01E9W8KYC/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=usb-c+56k&qid=1568905551&sr=8-3

Length of the cable does not matter. Fast charging require changing the voltage so it's 9V or higher not 5 V so there is some required spec for this to work properly, so a simple cable may only do the 5V standard charge.

u/shishkabobrules · 2 pointsr/Nexus6P

piggy-backing off this: i've been looking for a long type A to type C cable that supports 3.0 speeds and quick charging. the closest thing i found is this Anker PowerLine USB C to USB 3.0 Cable but it clearly indicates it doesn't support full speed charge for nexus 5x/6p. Is there one that does? If so, please let me know!

u/p_pal2000 · 2 pointsr/SonyXperia

I assume you're referring to the USB Type-C connector. I can imagine that if your last phone was a few years old that this is new, but it's been around for quite a while. There are tons of places online to order these cables from.

I always recommend Anker branded cables, they have been giving me the most consistent and high quality experience for a while now.

I order them from Amazon, and they come in different lengths. You said you'd like a longer cable, so here are the 6 ft cables and 10 ft cables (respectively) that I myself use.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01E9W8KYC/ref=mp_s_a_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1518313196&sr=8-12&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=anker+usb+c+cable

Hopefully this helps, if you have any questions I'd be glad to answer them.

u/akoni103 · 2 pointsr/OculusQuest

I am able to use a 6 ft cable, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01E9W8KYC/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_U_x_EU10DbBJDFV5D and a 10 ft extension, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B019DZ7U2S/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_U_x_9X10DbG5VWR1E.

I have a main gaming rig and a secondary one in my workout room. The front usb3 ports worked on neither. On my main rig-- i7-9700, 1080ti, Aorus z390 mb, I used the 3.1 usb. The jr gaming rig-- r5 3600, 1070, MSI b450i, I had to use the 3.1 usb marked VR ready.

u/YouFinnaShit · 2 pointsr/GalaxyS8

I don't know what Anker cable you're using but the one I'm using for my s8 (also Anker) clicks in. I just did a check right now to see if it did or didn't and it does.

I would return it for a refund if you can. I just got an anker usb-c to usb 3.0 cable and its working great so far: https://www.amazon.com/Anker-PowerLine-Resistor-Including-ChromeBook/dp/B01E9W8KYC

u/HaoBianTai · 2 pointsr/htc

Assuming you have a phone with a USB-C port (unlike OP), the answer is... probably.

Make sure you find a quality, thick cable. I bought a well reviewed Spigen one that worked great, but it was only 1m. You'll have to look more carefully for a longer cable, since the increase in length leads to an increase in amperage resistance, which results in slower charging.

That's why phones usually come with shorter cables in the box.

Edit: This one looks like it'd work great, seems to put out the maximum 2.4a that USB A is capable of.

u/literal-hitler · 2 pointsr/oneplus

I generally like Anker. Just don't be disappointed if it doesn't charge at maximum speed at longer lengths, the pixies get too tired.

u/Twinewhale · 1 pointr/NintendoSwitch

I use an Anker USB-C cable with the Powercore and I have no issues. Been using it to charge my switch on the go for ~6 months. You know that the power cable for the dock can plug directly into the Switch, right? Just double checking..

u/Zi_Mishkal · 1 pointr/OculusQuest

This USB cord worked for me on both a PC with a 1060 card / USB 3.1 port and a 1660 card / USB 3.0 port. Pleased it worked on the latter as the mobo was from 2011.

u/Propelissa · 1 pointr/lgv20

I have this exact combination, except with the 6 ft Anker cable. It has worked out for me so far!

u/betterusername · 1 pointr/pixel2

I have this and a regular usb-a -> usb-c cable like this
It seems to work pretty well, and you have an extra high speed A port, but it's not on the hip, everything is C train.

u/TargetedNuke · 1 pointr/OculusQuest



I was looking at buying the 6ft variant of the recommended cable ( https://www.amazon.com/Anker-Powerline-Pull-up-Resistor-MacBook/dp/B01E9W8KYC/?th=1 ), and using this ( https://www.walmart.com/ip/USB-3-0-Bus-to-Bus-Data-Wire-Extension-Line-for-Laptop-Camera-Cable/474196059 ) or a similar cable to make it ~10ft. However, I heard somewhere that you need a powered extension cable? or is that only for much longer lengths? (i can only find 16+ft powered cables)

u/qwigle · 1 pointr/OculusQuest

Not sure if this is where I should ask. I'm in Mexico and on amazon.com.mx this is cable I find which is only 6 feet and it costs around $35 usd so it's too pricey, I found this other one, would it work? It's still not ideal as it's only 6.6 feet but the price is only around $11 usd. Or someone that could help me find one that would work better.

Thanks.

u/mercurly · 1 pointr/HTC10

I just made the switch to all Anker cables after my Powerocker cable started acting funny. Quick charge all the time now, no issues so far. My BF also uses these on his Pixel and his USB-PD works as well.

I have both the Unicorn Beetle case and Spigen Neo Hybrid case.

Neo Hybrid is good if you're looking for a bumper with added grip on the back. I wanted something slim, but with a vertebrae since one-piece TPU cases tend to stretch out over time. Survived a couple drops with the scars to prove it. Big holes over both ports that I haven't had issues with yet. I really like this case.

Unicorn Beetle is my I-might-drop-this-on-concrete-today case. It's basically an Otterbox Defender, but half the price. Plus I carry my phone in my back pocket and after getting caught in the rain a couple times I decided I wanted a case with port covers. Also haven't had issues with port holes on this one. My only problem with this case is that my dinky little magnetic car mount (with the disk insert) sometimes has problems holding on to it. But I expected that to happen with a much denser case. (Also side note, this case comes with a built-in screen protector, like the Defender. I ripped that out before installing since they get lint stuck under them.)

All on Amazon. I'll link when I get on my PC.

u/qqoze · 1 pointr/macbook

I see you picked one from Anker.

If you don't mind the price hike, I can also recommend this one from Anker with Power Delivery (rather than Qualcomm QC 3.0):

u/Flogger23m · 1 pointr/NintendoSwitch

Yeah I read that but it didn't exactly answer all of my questions. :p

The "best" category seems like it would be impossible to get with a simple cable right?

This one has 56K but no mention of volts or amps:
https://www.amazon.com/Anker-Charger-PowerLine-Resistor-Nintendo/dp/B01E9W8KYC/ref=pd_sbs_147_8?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B01E9W8KYC&pd_rd_r=52c93943-c745-11e8-ad62-fd95c25bf5ca&pd_rd_w=FImAx&pd_rd_wg=5tBBF&pf_rd_i=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_p=0bb14103-7f67-4c21-9b0b-31f42dc047e7&pf_rd_r=13P47PVFTX2W9FSZKACD&pf_rd_s=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_t=40701&psc=1&refRID=13P47PVFTX2W9FSZKACD

In general, if it can provide 5v with 3A and has 56K, this should be enough to charge in most instances if connected to a desktop PC right?

u/Zerosaber071 · 1 pointr/GooglePixel

Hey everyone!

I just wanted to thank everyone for the responses.

I'm going to YOLO on the camera lens kit and go for it. I'll be ordering that sometime next month and I'll try to remember to post some pics here.

I should've clarified that the kind of power bank I'm looking for should be able to handle the outdoors. After looking into some solar power banks, I'm going to eye this instead.

Some of the Amazon.com links and finds didn't work on Amazon.ca so here is the cable I'm going to be look at that I'll be using with whatever powerbank I get.

u/MattO2000 · 1 pointr/NintendoSwitch

They recommend one that has a 56k ohm resistor, this is one example.

Additionally, you should check the voltage and amps of your wall outlet to USB A port. If it’s too low your switch will charge very slowly.

Since you live en Finland, it shouldn't be too much of a hassle to order from the english amazon, where I'm fairly sure that you can get a 3m usb A-C cable from

Edit 2: Found this on the german amazon - 1.8m Anker cable which should be compatible - 10€
