    https://caberqu.com/home/20-43-c2c-caberqu-746052578813.html#/27-with_or_without_case-with_case It’s not awful for price but there are more complete testers like treedix: https://treedix.com/

    What bothers me is all these testers assume you are a USB hardware wizard and know which pin combo supports which USB standard.

    I want something that tells you how fast and how much power the wire can handle.

    The newer cables have chips to talk to chargers to not exceed the power ratings. Why can’t these chips or testers also tell you how fast the wire can handle?

      The CaberQ can do exactly that.

      I thought I was smart going back to a video that featured two USB C cable testers. I onky watched the video and didnt check or paid attention what the brand was.

      They are, in fact, these exact two brands.
