Hi folks!
Since I'm a true Kobo-fan I happily purchased the brandnew Kobo Sage as a nice addition to my Forma and his smaller brother Libra. So yesterday it arrived, I happily unpacked, installed the latest SW update, configured it to my well known needs and loaded it with my calibre library. So far, so good.
Today I wanted to charge the battery to 100 perecnt once, grab me one of my well working USB-C cables ( note: the Sage has USB-C !!! ), plugged it into the power plug, expecting that it would charge as fast as my Forma and my Libra.
But... it didn't...
So I told myself to be patient - meanwhile I found that also the Forma needed a charge - and went back to ma work in the HO. Cam back after ca. 1 hour, Forma fully loaded, Sage still around 89 percent - didn't charge much as it seemed. So, as the smart boy I am :-) , I simply tried another plug. Same result. It was getting interesting, so then I used the oroginal cable coming with the decvice, and voila...it pumped the juice into the battery as expected.
Then played a bit with it and other USB-C cables, and it seems that the Sage only works well using the original cable, even does not really work with another USB-C cable with my powerbank
So does anybody have experienced something like that? Or even know what's the different between the original Sage cable and other USB-C cables could be?
Thanx in advance!
