thanks guys, I ordered some 3m ugreen cable

good choice specialy if you got braided one

@epi I got a 2 meter long USB cable

honestly everyone should have something that long

btw if you get 2 meters and up you lose fast charging

and data connection to PC

i remember one of the chink brands baseus or ugreen mentions this

if you lose data connection you just have a shit cable

^only on shittiest ports and devices

average microusb cable can easily push data connection and charge to phone tru 3m cable

source: i play with ugreen 3m cable and xbox controller hooked to it

on fucking usb 2.0 port of all the things

nice

so yeah shitty devices,ports are shitty even with 1m cables

usb 2.0 spec allows up to 5m cable

3.0 up to 3m

specialy some chargers what barely push out that 5.0 V (more like 4.89)

powering anything with those shitty "5v" "chargers" is waste of time

i got this myself

i thought most smps chargers autocompensate for voltage

the LEd light is super useful

best test for chargers is raspberry pi these days

when stumbling in the dark

3m cable and hook that in the end

looking for the cable to connect

to my phon

it will instantly mock you if your charger is shit

picky bitch device

(they really really like that 5.1V line)

@Nutshaker they can't compensate for voltage drop in the cable

unless you do something like 4 wire measurement, which doesn't exist for USB

why would the drop be that high

because that's how physics work

@Jignx in paper cool, but dear god i dont want random leds all around my devices/table

@Jignx i wanna use the cable for my xbox controller, dont wanna deal with bluetooth dongle and batteries

current devices have enough fuck bright leds

@epi yeah 3m ugreens can do that easily

at least mine does

@Nutshaker this is why a lot of quickcharge protocols negotiate higher voltages (9V-20V) instead of higher currents

to prevent voltage drop
