"Statik/ZDNET I'm a frequent traveler, so I try to minimize bulk by carrying multipurpose items. For instance, I pack the Satechi 3-in-1 wireless charger instead of carrying two or three separate wires for my , , and . I also carry a dual-port Nomad Type-C charging brick and two Type-C to -C wires. However, for the longest time, I had to pack an extra USB-A to USB-C wire for long-haul flights and public charging infrastructure. That is, until I found the wire."
"The Statik PowerPivot Pro cable offers fast charging, convenient usability and a 2-in-1 port on one end. The Statik PowerPivot Pro is essentially a USB-A to USB-C cable but the former can be pulled out to reveal a Type-C port, making it a USB-C to -C wire when needed. It comes in handy during flights, when I'm unsure whether the aircraft I'm boarding will have the traditional USB-A port or the more modern USB-C port."
The Statik PowerPivot Pro features a removable USB-A plug that exposes a USB-C connector, allowing use as either USB-A-to-C or USB-C-to-C. The cable supports data transfer at USB 2.0 speeds of 480 Mbps and delivers up to 60W for fast charging. The 6-foot nylon jacket and U pill-shaped head improve durability and reduce stress when using a phone while charging, and a 180-degree swivel adds convenience. The cable typically costs $20, is currently listed at $18 on Amazon with a 20% coupon available to lower the price to $14. Careful handling is required to avoid port damage.
