Ich brauche mal einen Tipp für ein Kabel USB-C auf USB-A, welches bei Verbindung vom iPhone zum PC den Datenzugriff ermöglicht (aka Internal Storage für Fotos bzw. Zugriff via iTunes). Habe hier ein Kabel, welches dem iPhone offenbar nur Strom liefert, aber keinen Datenzugriff erlaubt.

(Mit dem beiliegenden Kabel USB-C nach USB-C funktioniert der Zugriff mit einem neueren Notebook.)

How can one retro-fit a #USBA port to a 10 year old #thinkpad when the #minipcie internal USB port card device (see link below) is not on the #lenovo #whitelist e.g. of a #thinkpad_x230
BTW the #usb port is for then fitting a #lora #rnode or #meshtastic #note inside the #laptop case. This video shows the problem.

Hackaday: ALL ABOUT USB-C: MANUFACTURER SINS

hackaday.com/2023/02/07/all-ab

From article, The First Sin:

"The first, honorary entry is omitting 5.1 kΩ pulldowns on a USB-C port intended for charging your device. “Why does my device charge with a USB-A to USB-C cable, but doesn’t charge with a USB-C to USB-C cable”, asks the user? The answer is simple – because your device’s designer decided to save one cent while building your device, and didn’t care about testing the device before selling it to you. In other words, your device is supposed to have two resistors connected to the USB-C plug, yet it does not, and USB-C power supplies are unable to detect that they ought to provide power. Remember, the resistor detection is fundamentally a safety mechanism, and by now, information about this problem is omnipresent."

The overall situation of USB-C out there does seem to be a clusterfuck.

Oy.

So, I have two devices, one a Bluetooth speaker and one the 12-bar VU Meter LED setup I tooted about earlier, that want 5V power input via USB-C.

(I had been sharing a single USB-A charger block w/ A-to-C cable between them, swapping.)

So, I ordered two Anker Nano Charger / 511 devices and two USB C-to-C cables to go along with.

This device: anker.com/products/a2637-nano-

I plug them in and ... neither device powers up with that power input. The BT speaker makes a little clicking sound every few seconds - nothing from the LED VU meter.

Specs on the charger state: "Specs Input: 100-240V~0.6A 50-60Hz Output: 5V == 3A / 9V == 2.22A"

This is the second time I've seen a USB-C charger block not power such power-only devices.

What's up here? Do I need to keep with USB-A chargers and cable it to USB-C?

FWIW, the VU Meter device states not to allow more than 5V to the device -- but that should be the default, as I understand it, 5V from USB-C.

Any thoughts? Thanks.

I venture to post an oddity here
meshtastic.discourse.group/t/s
concerning the use of #usbc to #usba adapters and the effect that can have. The section in question is "Testing using USB C input via USB A output from solar panel to prevent drain of battery by the panel" in this #meshtastic #solarnode build test. If anyone can predict if my tests will fail, that would save me time and make me learn even more than I think I have. #usbc4 #usb #usb3

A series of USB adaptors (in exploded view) that make a male USB C from a solar panel into a female USB A socket for a USB C to USB A cable to charge the battery via the USB C port... in theory

Great question! "Need" probably isn't the right word. "Strongly desire" or "greatly prefer" would more accurate.

The reason is that I have lots of different devices with different port types. Some of my newer devices only have USB-C ports, while my older devices only have USB-A ports, and I'd really like to have just "one key to rule them all," so to speak.

I know that I could buy a little USB-A/C adapter dongle and keep that on the same keychain with the MFA key, but that introduces a degree of fragility that I'd prefer to avoid if possible.

That being said, if I found a hardware MFA key with all of the features I listed except for USB-C, then I'd happily accept the dongle compromise, because most of my devices (even the old ones) support Bluetooth, so I'd still have that as a backup option in case the dongle fails.

My current hardware MFA key is no longer receiving security patches, so I'm in the market for a new one.

Here's a list of features I'd like my new hardware MFA key to have, in order of priority:
1. USB-A
2. NFC
3. USB-C
4. Biometric
5. Bluetooth

My current MFA key has features 1-3 and 5. Is there a Holy Grail MFA key somewhere out there with all 5 features?

I'm already pretty familiar with YubiCo's product lineup, and while I love their security rating and build quality, none of them have more than 2 of the features listed above, so that kinda bums me out.

Anyway, let's hear your hardware MFA key recommendations!

Корпорация Anker анонсировала выпуск первой в мире зарядки мощностью 140 Вт с интегрированным экраном, названной Zolo.

Экран отображает потребляемую мощность и температуру, а также имеет кнопку для изменения режимов.

В состоянии бездействия на экране отображается спящее лицо.

Zolo оборудована четырьмя портами: тремя USB-C и одним USB-A, из которых два порта могут обеспечивать зарядку до 140 Вт, а другие — 40 Вт и 33 Вт.

Официальные детали о цене и дате выпуска пока не обнародованы, но релиз ожидается в ближайшее время
