    OP the title should read BlitzWolf USB not BlitzWolUSB and requires a space between , and USD.

    Can we get a deal on longer cables? Eg 2-3m?

  • mc11 on 05/07/2017 - 11:22

    Good cable, good price.

    Just got 4 to give to a couple of family members.

    Any deal on micro usb?

    • zuby on 05/07/2017 - 11:43

      Yes
      I would be interested in on a micro usb deal too

    • plentifoo on 05/07/2017 - 13:23

      i wanna buy a couple for my ds4 remotes. (side note they should've made the version 2s USB-C)

      I got a bunch of these, pick pink for galaxy s2 and its only $1.31

      They are one of the few micro usb cheap cables I found that were able to keep charging my old nexus 5 while it plays summoners war flat out.

  • Jonski on 05/07/2017 - 11:42

    maybe a dumb question - but this wont work on a micro usb phone?

    • darshu on 05/07/2017 - 11:48

      No, you need a USB-C phone. If you really really really want, then you need a converter.

    • XCelR8 on 05/07/2017 - 11:48

      No it wont, this has a "reversible" connector where as micro usb doesn't.

    • fossilfuel on 05/07/2017 - 12:15

      You're after this one but the deal has already expired

    • Jonski on 05/07/2017 - 13:50

    • BluBoy on 05/07/2017 - 12:39

      Yea, a few of the blitzwolf range have been tested.
      Check out some of the old posts for a link, I found it in there previously.

    • RichardL on 05/07/2017 - 12:44

      I'm on my phone, but doing a quick Google Search show that these cables has been Benson Approved

      • Galvatron on 05/07/2017 - 12:59

        I'm not so sure that it's "Benson Approved", as he adds this at the end,

        "Section 4.8.2 of the Type-C spec forbids Non-USB charging methods like Qualcomm QC that can change voltage on Vbus beyond 5V, so these two lines cannot be true either. Compliant Type-C devices and chargers cannot support methods like QC that can change voltage to 9V or 12V.

        In conclusion, this is a Good cable for your Nexus 6P/5X to use with all of your older USB Type-A chargers, hubs, and PCs. It also works great with Chromebook Pixel 2015 and will work great on USB Type-C spec compliant devices to come! However, it is NOT a SuperSpeed USB 3.1 5gbps cable. Look elsewhere if you are specifically looking for a 5gbps cable for use with MacBook or Pixel C."

        This seems to indicate that it shouldn't be used for QC-enabled chargers and only for older chargers.

      • CodeXD on 05/07/2017 - 13:21

        It's great that his name [Benson] is so unique. Can you imagine if his name was John or Dave and people are trying to google "John approved USB type C cable"

        • RichardL on 05/07/2017 - 13:25

          For anyone not in the know with USB-C, they would wonder who this "Benson" guy is.

    • jerjergege on 07/07/2017 - 11:32

      This problem has been blown out of proportion, really quite dumb.

      The problem is for USB-C to USB-C cables., as their PCB's are more complex, 10 reversible pins (20pinout) on such a small header. Manufacturers got lazy, and only used the 4/5 pins and the outs were grounded causing issues on how USB-PD works.

      For this case, USB-A to USB-C that's exactly what you do though, all the other pins can either be grounded, or left floating, for USB A you need 5V power, Data-, Data+ and ground, which are then connected to the correct pins of a USB-C Being AB1/AB12 for ground, AB4/AB9 for Vcc, AB6 for Data+, AB7 for Data-.

      You literally can't do anything wrong, this USB standard has been around so long, and that is why they had issues on USB-C to C cables because they continued to use the 4/5pins instead of the full 20.

    Anyone seen any reputable brand short ones? For powerbanks? Like 10cm-15cm ones.

    • Dinjay on 05/07/2017 - 13:22

      One options is to use your existing micro-usb cable that came with the powerbank and then buying a micro-usb to usb-c adaptor.

    Hey Rep, any chance of a deal on TC4, TC5 or TC6 cables?
    I own a few blitzwolf cables already, but find the moulded connector design feels stronger.

  • Sweaty-penguin on 05/07/2017 - 12:44

    I recently bought this cable to use with my new lg g6 and all I get is a slow charging message.

    Can anyone please explain why?

    The cable is rated to handle quick charging yet it won't even normal charge.

    • RichardL on 05/07/2017 - 12:45
      +1

      The charger might be a factor in why it slow charging. What charger are you using?

      • Sweaty-penguin on 05/07/2017 - 12:46

        The supplied one from LG.

        • RichardL on 05/07/2017 - 12:51
          +2

          Did the cable supplied with the charger quick charge your phone?

          Also have you tried a different charger or use the cable on another phone?

        • Sweaty-penguin on 05/07/2017 - 12:55

          @RichardL: the original cable does quick charge. The blitzwolf cable works normally on a different charger (as in not slow charge message.) I do not have another usb c device so haven't tried the last option.

        • RichardL on 05/07/2017 - 12:58
          +1

          @Sweaty-penguin: On your different charger, is it a Quick Charge compatible charger? If so, I think the problem might be your LG Charger.

        • Sweaty-penguin on 05/07/2017 - 13:04

          @RichardL: the other charger isnt quick charge compatible. It's an old 12w Apple one.

          I'm just struggling to understand what the issue is. I buy a brand new cable and only. Get slow charging. And I have another 2 already coming!

          Edit: but why does the original cable work fine with the supplied charger?

        • RichardL on 05/07/2017 - 13:16
          +1

          @Sweaty-penguin: Usually genuine charger wants you to use their company cable, and restrictions other brand cables. In my opinion you should look into purchasing a new charger. The Blitzwolf or Tronsmart posted on OzBargain regurly should be sufficient.

          Edit: For example this from Blitzwolf is great if you aren't looking for multiple port charger. If you are looking for multiple look into the 5 port Tronsmart Charger.

        • Sweaty-penguin on 05/07/2017 - 13:19

          @RichardL: I hoped that this wasn't the case. Have to spend more money for a feature that I already have…

          How do they manage to block non original cables from working?

          Last question! Tried it with my computer and it only registered as a charging cable. No data transfer?

          Thanks for your help though Richard

          @Sweaty-penguin: It doesn't hurt to have a spare charger in the house/work.

        • Sweaty-penguin on 05/07/2017 - 13:24

          @RichardL: have heaps already just not quick charge. See my last question?

          Cheers again!

        • RichardL on 05/07/2017 - 13:29

          @Sweaty-penguin: Regarding your last question, some phone requires you to select "Transfer File" as a security feature before you're actually allowed to transfer files.

        • Sweaty-penguin on 05/07/2017 - 13:30

          @RichardL: have done that previously. I'll stop picking your brain.

        • RichardL on 05/07/2017 - 13:48

          @Sweaty-penguin: No problems, happy to help as much as I can.

    • Shwayne on 05/07/2017 - 13:48

      I don't get rapid charging, but mine charges my phone at 1100mA when using my external battery.

  • bugoy8 on 05/07/2017 - 12:50

    Glad this is back on. The last time this was on sale, I mistakenly bought the USB micro one!

    • Zedd on 05/07/2017 - 12:58

      I bought both last time but only the micro USB cables got delivered, I actually needed the USB C cables so I might just purchase again so save the PayPal screw around for under $5

      It takes 3-8 weeks for things to arrive from Banggood (and the similar sites). November - January can take even longer. Wait a bit longer.

  • plentifoo on 05/07/2017 - 13:29

    this is a great cable for phones with newfangled quick charging capabilities. I don't even bother with using the stock cables anymore. This are built better and have the same output.

  • owduck on 05/07/2017 - 13:57

    These seem decent. I bought a few last time it was posted and they arrived a bit over a week ago.

    The "magic" tape strap is a shitty velcro cable tie that I'm sure will go missing in the next few weeks. The cable itself seems to have decent performance though. Fraction of the price of the ones at JB and way better quality.

  • Wonderfool on 05/07/2017 - 14:16

    Can these be used to charge a 45w laptop?

  • EnergicAU on 05/07/2017 - 14:20

    • Galvatron on 05/07/2017 - 14:53

    • hamza23 on 05/07/2017 - 19:22

      You need to pay in USD on Banggood and PayPal and let your bank do the conversion, if you pay in AUD on Banggood/Paypal then you'll get a lower exchange rate. However you'll need to use a foreign fee free credit card or you're bank will charge you ~3% for buying something in overseas currency.

      • jerjergege on 07/07/2017 - 11:39

        Unless you use citibank, or other cards that don't have conversion fees.

  • zacjanes on 05/07/2017 - 16:03

      Are the MC-5 better than this type? I remember in previous deal for the micro USB cables people mentioned the older blitzwolf cables had a point of failure where the cable cover would come loose.

      • grunge on 06/07/2017 - 18:35

        It's a regular micro usb, not type C.
