Shortest USB?

[Doofus]

I want a pocketable USB cable. Input of USB A (the big one) or C, output of B (micro) or C.

Is there some sort of multi adapter that will accomodate this?

ETA: Shortest, not sbortest...

Possibly. Not clear from picture what it is, exactly.

I have used these mini adaptors before and they seem to work fine - some of them come with small keyring attachments so you could have a few different ones to suit what you need to do in each scenario (probably starting with a decent short USBc to USBc cable) but keep them on a carabiner clip so they don't get lost.

Not sure how they would cope with a high current draw, but likely not going to be used for that if going from USBc to micro USB or A.

Plenty of short USB C ones on Amazon at around 20cm.

I like the coiled one for compactness and extra stretch when needed.

How about one of these?

Option 1

Option 2

Option 3 from Amazon if you need it within 3 months

One of those would be perfect, but I don't want the iphone bit.

Yeah, but I was hoping for a shorter (or even no) cable.

I travel with a pack of USBs and adapters, but it's quite a bulky pouch.

If you search for 2 way rather than 3 way you might get some hits.

I need USB C at each end as well.

But I need more than two ends. 2x USB C, 1x micro and 1x USB A. All male.

Ahh ok it’s a very specific requirement you would probably have to buy the four connectors and get your soldering iron out

[Doofus]

I'm beginning to conclude I'll be better off getting something made.

Or just carrying on with my bird's nest of 1m cables.

Try designacable in Nottingham
