FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the braided exterior?

The braided exterior significantly increases the cable's durability, making it resistant to fraying, tangles, and general wear and tear compared to standard rubberized cables.

Can this cable be used for fast charging?

The cable supports reliable charging. Actual charging speed depends on the power output of your USB-A source (charger, port) and the charging capabilities of your USB-C device.

What does the lifetime warranty cover?

Scosche's lifetime warranty typically covers manufacturing defects and normal wear and tear under intended use. It ensures the cable will be replaced if it fails due to faulty materials or workmanship.

Will this cable work with all USB-C devices?

This cable will work with any USB-C device that requires charging or data connection via a USB-A to USB-C link. However, it requires a USB-A port on the power source or computer side.

Is the 4-foot length suitable for long car rides?

The 4-foot length is generally suitable for most car charging scenarios, allowing passengers in the front or back to comfortably use their devices while connected to a car charger.

Can I use this cable to connect two USB-C devices?

No, this cable is specifically a USB-A to USB-C cable. It requires a USB-A port on one end and connects to a USB-C port on the other. You would need a USB-C to USB-C cable for connecting two USB-C devices.

Troubleshooting

Device not charging

Ensure the USB-A end is securely plugged into the power source and the USB-C end is fully inserted into your device. Try a different USB-A port or power adapter to rule out source issues. Verify the connected device is compatible with USB-C charging.

Data transfer is slow or not working

Confirm the USB-A port on your computer supports data transfer. Ensure the cable is fully inserted into both the computer and the USB-C device. Try connecting to a different USB port on your computer. Check for any software or driver updates for your device.

Cable feels stiff or difficult to bend

This is normal for braided cables. Gently uncoil the cable and allow it to relax. Avoid forcing it into tight bends. Over time, the cable may become slightly more flexible with use.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional durability due to braided construction.
  • Supports both charging and data synchronization.
  • Convenient 4-foot length for various use cases.
  • Reliable performance for everyday tasks.
  • Backed by a lifetime warranty for added confidence.

Cons

  • 4-foot length may be too short for some users requiring longer reach.
  • USB-A to USB-C configuration limits compatibility with USB-C only ports on the host side.
  • Braided cable can sometimes be stiffer than rubberized alternatives.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Simply plug the USB-A end into a standard USB-A port on a charger, computer, or car adapter, and the USB-C end into your compatible device.

Compatibility: This cable is designed to connect devices with a USB-A port (like most wall chargers, power banks, and older computers) to devices with a USB-C port (like many modern smartphones, tablets, and laptops).

Care: To maintain the cable's longevity, avoid excessive bending at sharp angles, especially near the connectors. Keep the connectors clean by gently wiping them with a dry, lint-free cloth if dust accumulates. Store the cable loosely coiled rather than tightly wrapped.
