They are not designed for heavy use. This little lovely cable saves your expensive laptop's USB connector from the often in-and-out use of peripherals. Eventually the laptop's connector will fail. This little connector, however, now takes the abuse of frequent in-and-out use of peripherals. So, when this cable's connector fails, you just buy another cable--not having to replace your laptop's USB connector (even if you could).
I use this to eliminate the problem. I bought a couple of these. I have two USB flash drives on my key ring along with a bunch of keys and the weight of the key chain pulling down on USB drive was causing errors. Also have an Air Card for WIFI which I was always worried would hit something when I moved the laptop so I use one of these there as well. Quality is very good.
The picture shows a white cable, the item that arrived is black. Not the end of the world, but as a white Macbook owner, with a white Flip video camera, I kind of wanted a white cable and that's why I ordered this one. It's a matter of principal, and of course, Amazon don't make it easy to find the "problem with this order" button.
yeah. probably a good idea to contact the seller first. the actual shipping price on the envelope was only 1.50.
I bought mine to replace one I lost a year ago and I have not had any problems so far. I contacted the seller about it and they said that Amazon charges that amount becoz it is under 'electronics'. just a cable and it works as it should.
needless to say, I was pissed. 1 thing though:-I saw for my product, that the shipping was a real rip off, like about 7-8 bucks. and I just checked it and they are still trying to wheedle that price out of customers.
so, don't be cheated that way.
Bought this to connect a bluetooth adapter to my Canon printer because of Canon's poor planning (USB port surrounded so nothing fits). Does exactly what I want it to do
