Hello all,

I am in the market for a 10ft Lightning cable for my iPad 4. So far I have had no luck as they all suddenly stop working after a few weeks even though they have no physical damage. All the ones I've bought so far all say MFI certified so I am puzzled whey they fail so soon.

Please help me with purchasing a proven durable 10ft cable. Thanks

Anker PowerLine Dura II i have this in several lengths and couldn't be more pleased.
Advertised as quite durable (haven't tried the durability myself with bending/stretching ) but considering I've had PowerLine series from anker before(Which got replaced with Dura simply b/c I misplaced the older ones), both micro USB and lightning and I've never had any issues.

The Dura even comes with lifetime warranty.
