Review on 🔌 StarTech.com 3ft Right-Angle USB to Mini USB Cable - USB 2.0 A to Right-Angle Mini B - Black - Mini USB Cable (USB2HABM3RA) by Robert Staten

Bought this 6 inch mini USB cable to power a small desk fan. I was looking forward to this cable as the tip of my StarTech Micro USB to Mini USB Adapter became bent after a few uses. I thought it was because the fan is tiny and seemed to flex/push the cord when tilted up against the counter. I figured a cable connected directly to the fan would work better and the RT 90° connector would be great as it would be "flush" with the back of the fan. I was wrong. The cable appears to be either shorted or the connector is defective. The fan only works when the cord is in an awkward position, and if it gets hurt I have to fiddle with the damn thing again. 😟So I'm not sure if I just have a bad cable or StarTech products just suck. **Please note: The problem is NOT with the fan itself. Works great with the included cable, but I needed a longer one.
