    iPad Pro 2018 iPad pro usb-c cords/cables

    Can we determine capabilities/dimensions of the usb-c cable supplied with the iPad Pro 12.9 (2018) and iPad Pro 11. Can someone measure dimensions of the plastic connector and diameter of cord/cable itself? I have this data of the stock iPad Pro usb-c cable: cable diameter is 2.8mm...

    USB-C to HDMI 2.0a for HDR out

    Has anyone here come across a USB-C to HDMI 2.0a dongle? Specifically HDMI 2.0 'a' in order to support HDR10 metadata to a compatible TV. If so, any success with HDR out from Bootcamp? I'd imagine HDMI 2.0a metadata may get macOS support now that Final Cut Pro X 10.4 has been updated with...

    Query About The Importance of USB Type-C Cable And Wall Charger

    Now I found a strange theory about type-c cable from a google engineer. The engineer said the type-c to USB-A cable which has the 10 Ohm resistor is illegal. Because it may cause fire on the wall adapter. As what the engineer said, it seems reasonable. The wall adapter may cause fire. But after...

    USB Type C Frankenstein Project

    Hey all, I have a hair brained idea that comes in the form of a Frankenstein wire connection, so, please bare with me. The idea is to make the Macbook's Thunderbolt port into a USB Type C port. (Or at least having them connected to adequately transfer data.) Here is how I want to go about doing...
