Micro-USB Charging Cable

Charging cables for the Micro-USB

The cable is the part blamed last and responsible first. A charge-only cable carries power but no data, and one not rated for power delivery caps the current no matter what the adaptor can supply, which is why a Micro-USB sometimes charges slowly on a fast plug.

Buying in New Zealand

Cables are filed by the connector the device takes rather than by brand, so you can go straight to the right shelf. Everything else for this range is under Charging Cables.

Orders placed before the 2pm cut-off dispatch the same working day and reach most New Zealand addresses overnight.

Questions answered

Why is my device charging slowly?

Usually the cable. One that does not support power delivery limits the current regardless of the adaptor.

Are braided cables worth it?

For a cable that lives in a bag, yes. They fail at the strain relief far later than a moulded cable does.
