T68 USB

Purple Lady · 08-01-2014, 12:49 AM

Can anyone tell me how long the USB cord that comes with the T68 is, and if there are any identifying marks on it? I have to send mine back and I want to make sure I send the right one. I have the one from Arta Tech if that matters.

It is black, about 50cm long. It is a no-name cable really. There is the USB logo on each end (the micro and the normal), but that´s about it.

Thanks. I couldn't find any that short an sent it back today with a longer one. Hopefully it's accepted.

actually microusb head is slightly longer than "normal" USB, believe it or not. The first time that I used another microusb cable I was puzzled because T68 didn't charge or was recognised as an external device. Then I compare the two cables and there was a surprise:

T68's USB head: 6,28mm (0,247")
Normal USB head: 5,40mm (0,212")

As the short head cannot make complete contact with the female connector, I could be explained the strange behaviour

Now the problem is that I have to carry original cable with T68 and I have to be very aware of not losing it.

Maybe, just maybe, what I explained is related with T68's charging problems
