brolin_empeyIs it technically possible to make a USB combination cable with a full-size Type A plug on one end and both a Type C plug and a microUSB plug on the other end?  If yes then is it feasible to productise such a cable?  Apparently StarTech does not offer such a cable even though I have bought and use their full-size USB Type A plug to microUSB plug/miniUSB plug combination cable.  StarTech does make a combination cable with a full-size USB Type A plug on one06:36
brolin_empeyend and a microUSB plug on the other end with adapters attached to the end of the cable to convert the microUSB plug to an Apple Lightning plug or a USB Type C plug but this cable costs around 25 CAD each so I have only two and you have to manually connect and disconnect things on the end of the cable;  the microUSB/miniUSB combination cable has both the microUSB and miniUSB plugs on a rigid T-shaped part on the end of the cable so nothing has to be manually06:36
brolin_empey connected and disconnected on the cable.06:36
VajbI have one cable which has three wires coming from usb a06:39

Vajbthey have micro usb, lightning? (that apple thing which doesn't care which way it is entered) and samsung tablet plug06:41

Vajbit came with powerbank06:41
brolin_empeyI know I can buy microUSB↔USB Type C adapters.  I already have some but they are small and easy to lose because they are not permanently attached to a cable.06:42
Vajbmaybe look from ebay for such cable06:43
brolin_empeyVajb: Yes, eBay is the ultimate dollar store.06:44
Vajbit has never failed to amaze me with its stock...06:47

DocScrutinizer05brolin_empey: >>both a Type C plug and a microUSB plug on the other end<< would you like the USB-C negotiates 24V VBUS getting fed to the micro-USB plug?07:55
DocScrutinizer05surefire device killer cable07:55
brolin_empeyDocScrutinizer05: I do not know a lot about USB Type C because I have little experience with it so far.  I asked about the possibility and feasibility of creating such a cable because I thought that someone like you in this channel would know more than me about the involved hardware/technology.08:01

DocScrutinizer05you could connect a usb2 peripheral to the micro-plug while on C plug another device negotiated VBZS=9, 12, even 24V08:10
DocScrutinizer05VBUS*08:11
DocScrutinizer05all clear?08:11
brolin_empeyDocScrutinizer05: OK, thank you for your knowledgeable answer.08:11

sixwheeledbeastYer, you have to increase the voltage to transfer the same amount of energy via such small a conductor.12:25
