Review on Stouchi Thunderbolt-Compatible Charging Extension Cable by Lonnie Batch

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Doesn't work with Elgato HD60S and may have blocked my external docking station

Elgato HD60S capture device connected to computer with regular cable supplied and was able to capture video. I connected a USB-C extender to Elgato and it couldn't record video. Trying to use it as an extension cord for my external Sabrent dock which used to work fine. The transfer stopped while the file was being transferred. Stopped and started, and the transfer completed. An attempt to transfer using the original cable failed, after which the dock stopped working (you can still turn it on, it just doesn't communicate with the PC anymore). Maybe the docking station just died. after the second use but before I used this extender it worked and after that it broke. (fortunately that didn't work on my Elgato; may just have to look for longer HDMI cables for the Elgato, but it's annoying to have to run two HDMI cables further instead of just having a longer USB-C)

Pros
  • USB cable
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than others
