what i was getting on about is if the USB is hardwired with solid busses molded (instead of high gauge - high resistance wires) into the USB then this is easily doable, but it will come out in price. USB cables would be made like IEC and they will slap a braided jacket on her and call her "pretty".

and a simple application is the gaming laptop. mine is 280 right now

what do the power cable and power supply look like ? post a pic.

19.5V @ 11.8A output which is pretty high DC

what i meant is a laptop psu is a brick with thicker cables.can't compare to a phone charger.

Dear God the USB consortium are the worst. I get it, you need to update the standard over time but damn it. Just commit to a major update and make all aspects of it mandatory. Stop the confusion! Now I can buy a device and cable and I don't know if either supports video (1080p to 10k?), audio (stereo to 64 channel surround), charging/power (20/40/100/240w), pcie (thunderbolt), or data transfer (480mbps to 5gbps). To say that the USB type C implementation is a mess is a massive understatement.

I know how you feel but it’s not really economical to make it mandatory for all devices to support the all the features of the standard. Implementing every feature costs money because of the extra components and circuitry they require. If you bought a cheap pair of wireless headphones it would cost the manufacturer extra money to implement features they aren’t going to use like 40gbps transfer speeds and 240w power. You’d be adding probably somewhere between $20 and $40 extra to the cost of the headphones for something you would never need.

Ah yes, USB. How to confuse everyone since 2013. USB3.0 (5 Gbit/s) was fine, then came (the rebranding show)... USB 3.1 Gen 1 – SuperSpeed, 5 Gbit/s data signaling rate over 1 lane using 8b/10b encoding (effective 500 MB/s); the same as USB 3.0 USB 3.1 Gen 2 – SuperSpeed+, new 10 Gbit/s data rate over 1 lane using 128b/132b encoding (effective 1212 MB/s) Think that was all? Make way for this since 2017: USB 3.2 Gen 1 – SuperSpeed, 5 gigabit per second (Gbit/s) data signaling rate over 1 lane using 8b/10b encoding (effective 500 MB/s) , the same as USB 3.1 Gen 1 and USB 3.0. USB 3.2 Gen 2 – SuperSpeed+,[56] 10 gigabit per second (Gbit/s) data rate over 1 lane using 128b/132b encoding (effective 1,212 MB/s), the same as USB 3.1 Gen 2. USB 3.2 Gen 1×2 – SuperSpeed+, new 10 gigabit per second (Gbit/s) data rate over 2 lanes using 8b/10b encoding (effective 1 GB/s). USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 – SuperSpeed+, new 20 gigabit per second (Gbit/s) data rate over 2 lanes using 128b/132b encoding (effective 2,424 MB/s). I cannot wait for USB4. I want some UltraSpeed++++ with red glowing wires. With some Thunderbolt if possible. 😉

😕 😕 😕 😕 😕 😕 ! nailed it but then again you can thank the E.U. for making the USB C connector (any flavor) standard for all future cell phones. they should give up the pissing contest with Intel/Apple and just go Thunderbolt for anything rated over 100watts

Most definitely not! I don't want anything Apple to become standard. I know USB is a mess but I'd rather that than have a company lock down the tech so they can shaft you for every penny possible all whilst being "cool". If someone sells me something as being "lifestyle" I immediately know it's a sham for insecure people who are desperate to look "cool" around their work colleagues.
