As a side note, I have multiple USB C Monoprice cables and they work flawlessly.
when I first got my 6p, I was able to charge between 2.1 and 2.4 amps with the following:
google supplied usb a to c
eligiant usb a to c
monoprice a to c
choetech a to c
and 2.7 to 3 amps on a vinsic car charger with the following:
google usb c to c
anker usb c to c
now, since the 6.0.1 update, with the anker usb c to c, I start out getting 2.7 amp, then it quickly levels off to 1.5 -1.8 amp. this is below 20% battery on the phone, and the battery temp is in the 20s.
the only usb a to c cable I can charge better than 1.5 amps is the choetech. I have 2 google supplied usb a to c cables, they only charge at 1.5 amps on several different 2.4 amp chargers. I thought I had some app that was doing something wierd so I uninstalled all power diagnostic apps and measured with an inline usb meter, still shows 1.5 amp with he phone off even, except with the choetech cable. I dont think this is anything to do with 56k resistors, or cc lines or any of that, I Think the cables themselves are just too small guage. the choetech a to c, and the google c to c are bigger than the other cables I have. I dont really want to cut them open to measure the wire guage though.
funny thing is, I bought the mono price cable http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VTZ7WOM?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage because it specifically mentions it is able to tranfer 100 watts of power, yet it only give me 1.5 amps.
iOrange USB type c cables got a good review by Benson. Braided cable is durable.
When I scanned Monoprice USB 2.0 USB-C Male to USB-A Male Cable, it said
> USB 3.1 SuperSpeed+ supports up to 10Gbps data rate
It's not USB 3.1, only USB 2.0.
