Found that your USB-C Charger won't work when charging some devices? Well read on...
There is nothing more annoying than getting a shiny new device which says it supports USB-C charging, only to find out it doesn't work when you plug it into the same charging setup you've used for your phone and laptop. What gives!? Thankfully this handy little adapter is just what the doctor ordered for this headache!
Depending on the types of devices and cables you often use, you may not even run into this issue. But to keep it as simple as possible, some devices which are charged via a USB-C port, aren't capable of accepting charge from a USB-C charging adapter. This is due to a tiny missing component (called a 5.1 kΩ pull-down resistor) which regulates the flow of power for charging low-power devices (you'll find these devices normally ship with a USB A-C cable as a workaround, which natively limits the amount of charge - however this is no use with a USB-C charger).
That's where this adapter comes in. Simply plug this adapter into the USB-C port on your charger, and now your low-power-devices can be used with those chargers! :-)
This adapter's claim to fame is that is has that component built in so you can still utilize your USB-C wall chargers with devices that would otherwise require a USB-A to USB-C connection to charge. You can read further into this issue on our blog post talking about this issue in great detail here.
It doesn't just charge either! You're able to achieve USB 2.0 tranfer speeds of up to 480Mbps with this when connected to compatible hardware which is a nice addition to have, so you can ditch those USB-A to C cables for good!
Please note, while this device allows charging of lower powered devices, it also restricts the maximum charging output that is capable when attempting to charge using this device, being 5V/3A (15W). If you have a device that you have been able to charge that has a minimum 45W charging requirement, attempting to charge it like normal but with this adapter added will make it no longer accept charge due to it being under the minimum power requirement. This adapter cannot be plugged into the charger end, it requires being plugged into the device to properly function. Additionally, the use of this adapter will not allow any sort of video output from the USB-C connection.
