R-test failed, out of spec

This simple USB A to C cable is used to charge new devices (with reversible Type-C connector) from PCs, legacy chargers and universal chargers. USB ports. Unfortunately, this cable fails the "Check-R" application, indicating it lacks the proper resistors to limit power draw from older charging sources. A lack of adequate resistance can seriously damage equipment and usually means unreliable (variable) charge rates as well. Cables that didn't meet the specification were a big problem for USB-C…

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Almost OK

Works well, well made; Fast charge

Works very well. More versatile than traditional USB-C cables as they plug into the more common USB-A port found on computers and most phone chargers. This saves me having to carry a separate USB-C charger with me when I travel. NOTE: It doesn't charge as fast as a standard USB-C charger with a USB-C cable, but it charges fast enough. Using the "AMPERE” phone app, the attached images show that the AMPERE app supports charging a FAST fully charged LG Nexus 5X phone at a maximum rate of 400mAh…

  • Cables and connectors

All in all a good product

Not the best Revainbasics cable there is I have used. Bought as an extra cable for use in the car. When I connect it to my phone (ZTE MAX), the phone keeps "ringing" and going off because the cable is very loose in the USB C port. The OEM cable doesn't cause this, neither does the OEM cable from the Samsung phone that I have. I have several charging cables from this brand for my Apple products, both 30-pin and Lightning connectors, and I always recommend them to all other brands, including…

Pros
  • DOUBLE SIDED: Just plug a Type-C connector into any Type-C enabled device (it doesn't matter which side is up)
Cons
  • Very expensive
