    Hi, I like the way you handle the USB’s. My iPhone MagSafe charger plug broke, and found 5 wires instead of 4. I see you have 4 coming from your cord. Mine has the same colors with an extra, forgot the color. Will buy the plugs you listed but need to know what to do without damaging my iPhone. Thank you.

    Your background is so similar to mine. Played drums, Navy computer school, but I didn't study it in college. I volunteer at the local theater and I'm looking into whether this is something I can do myself to have cables that we need for the theater and/or myself for my own nefarious reasons. Thanks for making this video it was very easy to follow and very descriptive.

    hey so I got like a broken repeater in a 30 meter long USB3 cable. I luckily was able to remove the section with the repeater, and shorten the cable by 5 meters, which hopefully won't be an issue. Yet now I've got this 5 meter cable going on, which doesn't have 4 but 8 cables, excluding the earth cable. This is of course cabling for the repeaters. And now I'm wondering whether I could get USB plugs which are active, so I would not lose this active capability of the cable I've got. Do you happen to know what to look for? I can't seem to find any active USB plugs.

  • @thomasreed1386
    @thomasreed1386 4 місяці тому

    A couple of points. First, the video about putting together USB cables is the best I've ever seen on UA-cam. Second, I realize that you are selling the male jacks and cable and all of that - and you deserve the profits for that - but I'm an 80-year old having to pay off a mortgage, so I would like others to carry those parts at lower prices. I greatly dislike buying anything from the anti-union employee abuser Amazon, and I don't want the two-year delay of buying those things on eBay from Chinese sources. Now, third. Why do you limit this to USB KEYBOARD cables? Those are the last things we need solid reliable USB cables for. Our main need is for charging, and secondarily, connecting digital, audio and video signals. And why do you feel you need to use mil-spec high-amperage cables for computer keyboards? Are your keyboards on gunboats or submarines? Yes, the standard USB cable of types A, Micro, Micro and C unplug with a person tripping over a wire. But USB ALWAYS does that. You don't have a mil-spec cable on any USB keyboard unless they use them in the nuclear missile launch stations. We normal, mortal civilians just want to repair the normal cables that always break on us. And maybe make something with the wire more durable, without going to 12-amp 4-conductor wires. I really want this third point explained, if you don't mind.
