Terasako Magnetic Charging Cable 4-Pack [1ft/3ft/6ft/6ft], 360° Rotating Magnetic Phone Charger Cable with LED Light, Nylon-Braided Cords

I’ve really enjoyed using these Terasako magnetic charging cables. The magnetic connection is probably my favorite feature because I can connect my phone quickly without having to line up and insert the charging plug every time. Once the small connector is in the device, the cable snaps into place easily, which is especially convenient in the car or at night. The 360-degree rotating connection is also useful because the cord can move naturally depending on how I’m holding or using the device. I like the LED light as well because it makes the end of the cable easy to find in the dark without being overly complicated. Another big plus is getting four cables in different lengths. The 1-foot cable is handy for a power bank, the 3-foot works well in the car or around a desk, and the two 6-foot cables are great next to the bed or anywhere the outlet is farther away. The nylon braiding also feels durable and has held up well to everyday use. Overall, these are very convenient charging cables and a good value for a four-pack. I especially like being able to leave the magnetic connector in my device and simply snap the cable on when I need it. They've made everyday charging a little easier, and I would purchase them again.

So I have a ton of cords in my house, at work, and in the car to charge a variety of items. I don't have any I-devices, but I do have a myriad of C and micro charges in various length. I just stumbled upon these charges and read the reviews and was excited at the prospect of having one type of charger for everything. So before you buy, there are some things you should probably consider: First, these cords are not for data transfer - they only charge. If you are in need of data transfer, I believe this company has a set of those that they sell in 1ft, 3ft, 3ft, and 6ft lengths. I do data transfer via Bluetooth so this limitation was a moot point for me. Second, if you are going to go with this type of charging, it only makes sense if you plan to completely convert all your devices over to the magnetic option. Otherwise, you defeat the convenience of the charger cause you still have to have the old charges and pull the adapters out. Third, the ends of these chargers are magnetic. So if you plan to leave this charger plugged in to be ready when you need it, understand that it will attach itself to anything magnetic. So put some thought into where you are placing the cords in your house hold and ensure that you don't have anything magnetic near where the cord will be sitting. If its unplugged it is just an inconvenience but if it is plugged in - it MIGHT be a fire hazard. I already had my "charging stations" in places where there isn't anything magnetic around so I'm fine with this but it is something you should plan for. Lastly, the magnetic hold of the chargers are NOT strong enough to pick up the phone by the charging cord. I believe the picture in the advertisement is misleading because if you attempt to pick up the phone by the charging cord, it will fall and disconnect. This is not a flaw of the cord, this is by design. If the magnetic hold were really strong enough to pick up your phone, you would have a very hard time of disconnecting your phone from the charger and even risk damage to your phone if it pulled the adapter out of your phone. With that in mind, I calculated that I would need two packages in order to change everything in my house, car, and office over to magnetic charging. So I ordered two packages and they arrived the next day. THAT made me happy to get them so fast. Each package has a 1', 3', and two 6' cords. One of the 6' cords has the charging on the side which allows for 360 degrees of rotation. Each cord is packaged individually. There are two small clear containers that contain 6 adapters (2 of each kind per container). I ordered Thursday evening, received them Friday evening and I'm writing this review on Monday. The first thing I did was open both packages and set the 8 cords to the side. I emptied the 4 clear containers of the adapters and separated them into 3 piles by type. I gathered up all my devices and started placing the adapters inside each device. I was worried about my phone because I carry it inside a wallet case but I worried for nothing because I was able to leave my phone in its case and the adapter fit perfectly in the phone. (If I want to remove my phone from the case, I will first have to remove the adapter). I had plenty of adapters to go around and when I was finished, I placed the extras inside 3 of the 4 clear containers by type and used a black marker to mark on the back what type each container had so I could easily find an adapter for any future devices. I then went through my house and started replacing the cords. I had NO IDEA how many cords I actually owned until I started gathering them up!!!! The one 1' cords went into the cars, and one of the 6' cords was set aside to take to the office. The remaining cords were placed around the house and I actually ended up with an extra 6' cord that I didn't open (always great to have a spare). Gathered up the old chargers and placed them in a rather large box and put them in the garage in case I needed to go back to the "old way". (I did leave one small Micro Cable beside my bed for my wireless earbud charging. I only have to charge the case once a week and putting an adapter in the case didn't make any sense). These things are fantastic!!! My house is no longer cluttered with charging cables. Where I used to have two cables per "charging station" (one in the wall ready and the other type sitting on a table/counter beside the outlet) I now only have one in the wall ready to go. All weekend, I would just pick up one device, and then put another device on to charge and the charger would "click" into place. I didn't have to exert any effort to insert the charger, I just put the device close to the charger and the magnet did its job. The time it took to charge my devices was just as good as the "old way" if not faster. The one foot cord was a little short from what I am used to in the car but the 3 foot would have been too long. Since my phone hooks to my car when I'm in it, it wasn't too much of an issue but I think a 1 1/2 foot or 2 foot cord would have been perfect. I would have been able to place my phone in the holder that I have instead of just laying it on the console and hoping it doesn't fall off. BUT, the ease at which it connects/disconnects is worth the short cable. If they ever have an option of a 2' cable, I will buy it. Also, I LOVE the blue light at the end of the cable that lets you know there is power. One of my places to charge is when I'm sitting on the couch and the biggest problem I have had with the old way of charging is because the cord is behind the couch - it sometimes comes out of the wall and I don't know this until I plug my phone in and notice it isn't charging. With the LED light on these chargers, I KNOW before I even sit down whether the cord has power. This was a benefit that I wasn't expecting but was huge plus for me. I have already suggested this product to two of my co-workers and I believe everyone should switch to these! Just the convenience of no longer switching cables and having them laying around everywhere was worth it. The ease of charging is just icing on the cake. The adapters are minimal and do not detract from the aesthetic of the device but even if they were bulky I would use them. I don't ever see myself going back to the "old way" of charging unless there is a big quality issue that comes up later. I have only had them for a few days so if I experience any quality issues with the cables, I will update my review. As of today, I would highly recommend this product.

Instead of this set, I'd recommend this (fully compatible) TOPK set with more cables, including TWO long L-shape (right-angle) cables: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B094V9VXTF These work just fine, but the straight, non L-shape cables lose their connection briefly whenever you tug on the cable just a bit. That's why I'd go with the above set. Anywhere you're going to be using your phone/tablet while it's plugged-in, I'd stick with L-shape cables, unless you've got some extremely thick case that won't allow them to work. I'll throw the straight cables in my travel bag, and perhaps my car, where little annoyances like that won't matter so much for as relatively rarely as they're used. Otherwise, I love these: * Since you have tips which stay permanently in the USB (or i-device) socket, your phone's charging port never gets full of pocket lint and needs cleaning. * There's less chance of damage to your charging port, from exceeding the thousands of connect/disconnect cycles the port can handle, to pushing/pulling at an angle and damaging it. * The L-shaped cables swivel very easily, and disconnect if you pull on them, preventing damage to your device. * The magnetic cables connect very easily, you just get your device within an inch of the cable and it'll magnetically connect up, itself. No fumbling around in the dark trying to plug in your charging cable. * No need to swap changing cables when you want to switch between charging older micro usb devices versus newer usb-c devices. And it's so easy to connect/disconnect devices, lots of places I previously had two cables, I only need one. * The charging cables are thin, light and flexible, including the 10ft lengths. Typically, longer USB cables get rather thick, heavy and inflexible, making them unpleasant to use. * However, I do HATE the blinding bright blue LED shining out the rear and sides, making it difficult to sleep in the same room as your phone is charging. The LED shining out the front is fine, where you can see it when nothing is connected but gets blocked when a device is plugged-in. I needed to go around the rest of the plug with a few inches of black electrical tape to block the light which didn't stay on for long and still let some light around the ends. My better fix was buying small container of black nail polish; it works but was still difficult to work into all the small notches where light leaks through and took a couple attempts. There are some compatible magnetic cables with a special swivel head which do this right, but I hear they are fragile, which I can certainly believe by looking at the mechanism, so those are out of the question for me.

I'm a geek for fast charging. Yes, I'm a geek who has bought devices/ instruments to read how fast something is charging. Saying that, I'll start with showing you the charging speeds, that I got at least. For what I used for my power source, I used a charging block capable of 60 watts of charging. I did the testing with the USB charging, and an adapter to convert the USB to a Type C connector. ---------------------- CHARGING SPEEDS FYI, charging speeds were the same for both USB and Type C Averages of mA per cable 1 ft = 1.3 - 1.5mA 3 ft = 0.5 - 0.7mA 6 ft straight and right angle cables = 0.3 - 0.5mA ---------------------- THE BAD The numbers for the 3 and 6 foot cables are absolutely dog poop. They will charge most devices, but incredibly slow. In general, poor functionality. The only one I would be interested in, is the 1 foot cable, but ain't no way I'm using 1 foot of cable for everyday use. ----------------------- THE GOOD If you're looking for a non-exspensive magnetic cable, thats only purpose is to sit on a table while charging and to then be instantly picked up, this is for you. Build quality felt and looks great, and I would say that it's has pretty good cable strength (reffering to the cable itself) and yes, the magnets are strong. . . to my liking at least. I'm going to be refunding this, and I'll be looking into another magnetic cable, that claims to do 60 watts.

I bought a new charging cable to use in the car and was disappointed when it was made of such cheap metal that it wouldn't stick to my magnet mount (which is where I store my charging cable when not in use). I asked my wife to order a new cable and to make sure it would stick to a magnet. She found this product and ordered it. When it arrived, I was like, "You're crazy. This will be so annoying." But, after using it for just a day, I have to admit that it's so much better than any other charging cable I've ever owned and I made her order a bunch more. These charger cables are so excellent. I have an iPad, a Pixel 2 XL, and a pair of headphones all that have different charging connectors. I used to have to keep three different charging cables in all the places that I might need to charge them. Now, I have one charging cable in each location and it connects to all of them. When I first got it, as I said before, it was annoying because I'd have to remove the little insert in places like the car where I didn't have the cable. Now I have one in the office, the living room, my bedroom, all of my cars, and in my bag for when I'm out and about. The magnet is fantastic, very strong, but not so strong that the device would be ripped out of your hand if someone yanked on the cord. It is self centering, so you can literally connect it to your device by tossing it near your device. I do that sometimes just for fun. In the set we got, one of the connectors is on it's side while the rest were straight-on connectors. I use the side connector for use in bed. I've trashed so many cables over the years because while I'm reading I crush the connector between my body and the device as I prop it up. This side connector is perfect because it kinda rotates out of the way, and is flat enough that nothing has to bend. One downside is that the blue LED on the end of the cable is so bright! It will blind you to look right at it. Most of the time this is a nice feature that helps me find the cable even if it gets pushed under the sofa. But at bedtime, I find myself putting something on top of it so it doesn't light up the room. (Although, when I have to get up to go to the bathroom, I can always find my phone in the dark.) Another downside is that the insert does create a small bulge at the base of my phone which very occasionally makes it not quite work with a particular cradle that relies on using the bottom edge of the device for support. Android phones will allow you to use the device upside down so this sometimes solves that problem. But, this happens so rarely I hardly ever encounter it. With my iPad Pro (first generation) it's a bit annoying to have to remove the insert in order to insert the Apple Pencil for charging. But frankly, the design of that first generation Apple Pencil was so poor it's annoying no matter what. They have fixed the problem in current iPad models as the Pencil charges on the side of the device using a magnet of its own. I know it's too much to ask for, but this should be the new standard for charging for all devices. It's so elegantly beautiful in design and function. So, yes, my wife was right. She saw the value of this system right away. It was the first time she was right, so hopefully she'll build on this success and there will be many great purchases to come.

Terasako Magnetic Charging Cable 4-Pack is a high-quality, long-lasting charging solution that offers ultimate convenience. The magnetic tips provide a lightning-fast, quick connection that snaps into place effortlessly every single time. My favorite feature is that you leave the tiny adapter tip inside the phone, which completely protects and doesn't wear out the USB port on my phone from constant plugging and unplugging. Great for charging but there no data transfer. With four cables included in the pack, it is incredibly versatile; I can easily keep them right where I need them, whether using them in my car or at home. Highly recommended!

Update four months later: So this morning I woke up to my phone being completely dead and iPad not being fully charged. The cables were connected properly as always but this time I noticed the white plastic around the blue led was melted on the iPhone cord and the same with the iPad cord but the adapter inside the iPad was melted inside the iPad as well. I could smell melted plastic when I woke up. On one of the cords the plastic had actually melted its way back into the the metal end and then back out the end that connects to the device. Now let me also say that these two cords were connected to a plug in adapter that takes two usb cords and two regular plug ins. One of the regular plug ins had my Apple Watch cord connected. That cord was fine but I did notice the watch didn’t get a full charge as well. So basically what I’m saying is that I think the plug adapter (not related to these charging cords) was the initial problem but how these cords reacted is what’s very scary and dangerous. My Apple Watch charger (Apple brand) didn’t melt and still works. The led on the cords work as well but do not charge. Please be careful and cautious with off market brands. We had to pull adapter from iPad with a wrench because it was stuck. This was my first review: These chargers are great. I have purchased four sets at this point because They are so great. I keep the adapter in my phone and iPad at all times and have a cable set up at my bed, in my car and in my kitchen. You don’t even have to mess with putting it in. The magnetic adapter finds it way when it’s close enough. So nice to just pull the phone away when I need to step away from the area. The magnetic hold is pretty strong but there will be instances when you have to move or something and it detaches. Not a big deal once you learn your boundaries. That’s why I purchased the multiple sizes. Long one is at my bedside so that I have enough room to adjust if I need to change my position. The other awesome part is if you have any metal on your bedside lamp. When I get up in the morning I detach my phone and iPad from their chargers and then just connect them to my metal lamp. It’s nice that they don’t have to fall to the floor or I don’t have to buy the cable holders. The chargers have a blue led light that shows you they are charging. Sometimes since I sleep facing that side I have to move them or corner them slightly with a book because they can be bright if you are sensitive to light in the dark like I am. All in all, these chargers are the very best.

Update: So, I use one of these to charge my Xbox controller and it's been great. The other day I went to grab it to hook to the controller and the end was scorching hot, like burned my finders hot. Turns out the magnet hooked onto 'something' rounded and metal and was shorting it out for a few hours. The plastic inside the end was oozing out and the center connector moved around inside. Needles to say that cable no longer works. It's not like it's the cables fault or anything but you need to watch the end when you unplug it from your device, the magnet will stick to other metal items and while the center pin is ever so slightly inset (like maybe 1/64") if it connects to something with a little curve to it, it can short out. All in all I still love these cables and connectors and I just bought another set. I have had these a little over a week and they are great so far. I got these because my iPhone 7 got to where the cable was sometimes not perfect and I would wake up to a phone with 7% charge on occasion. The adapter fit into the phone very snug (not going to have any connection issues here) and I love that I can just put the cable near it (haphazardly) and it connects. I also put one on my iPad and my Xbox One controller. The only issue I have had so far is that the cable has a blue LED on the back of the connector and they are bright, well my iPad and phone sit on the shelf on the headboard of my bed and it lights up the entire room (I like to sleep in a very dark room). I ended up using a black paint marker to cover this part of the cable and now it's perfect. When the cable is unplugged you can still see the LED on the end so no issues hooking it up in the dark. I am slightly concerned that over time the ends may corrode a little and prevent a perfect connection so I will come back and update this if that ever happens but for now I am very happy with them.

Fueron de gran utilidad para varios artículos que tengo

Good product I’ve introduced my entire family to them.

Nice and easy to use. tick magnetic part at device end, makes the magnetic more strong. I recommend it

Si tienes prisa por conectarlo el magnetismo funciona perfectamente y se ensambla sin dificultad Lo compre ya 2 veces porque en una caída de más de 1 mt se golpeó el conector y se sumió el pico del centro

Great idea with magnetic charger, however 2 out of 4 charging cables already not working or work intermittent. Will look for more durable ones
