Are there hidden gems in Dollarama’s tech section? [Part 2]
November 23, 2022 - Dollarama’s tech section is full of charging cables in the $2.5 – $5 range. Old USB-A to micro USB, USB-A to Lightning, and USB-A to USB-C cables are all readily available at the store, though I couldn’t spot any USB-C to Lightning or USB-C to USB-C cables at my local Dollarama.

Financials wrote: ↑I always think its stupid how people avoid products due to 1-2 isolated incidents, but its a cheap cable you can buy a good quality one for $10-20 , why bother saving $7 when people have been electrocuted via badly designed iphone cables lol, plus the possibility of it not charging / ruining your device long term.. you buy a phone that costs as much as a nice laptop, and cant spend the money on a charger ? Phones are subsidized, laptops aren't. Maybe if apple put some build quality into their chargers I wouldn't have to buy cheap $3 ones from dollarama- but if they break at similar rates I'd rather my money not go to Apple.

Dollarama Lightning Cable Question - RedFlagDeals.com Forums
November 14, 2018 - Quality seems good but it's hard to insert the lightning end into my iPhone. I have both primecables and monoprice cables and it's smooth and easy to insert those into my phone, but this one almost feels like you have to force it in.

I don't get why people pay ~$40 for an Apple lightning cable when this one does the trick for $3? Charges fine, transfers files and photos fine. Apple store charge you $21.00 for a Lightning to USB Cable.

r/UsbCHardware on Reddit: A small and light USB-C charger and cable that can charge *everything*
September 14, 2025 -

Hello! I'm looking to get a small charger with a cable that can charge all of my various devices.

I've ran into many issues with USB-C chargers and cables, a lot of them seem to be incompatible with some devices, especially cheap aliexpress electronics like flashlights, consoles, headphones, mini cameras and other accessories. Even though they all have a USB-C ports, they only really want to charge from a simple standard 5v 1a USB-A phone charger with an USB-A to USB-C cable. I use a lot of those, and I need a charger that will charge them all, as well as my phone.

I'm building an EDC kit, and would like to get a small and light charger that can charge all of my gear in a pinch. I don't care about them charging fast, my main concerns are compatibility, size, weight and of course price. I'm not looking to spend over $50, and the cheaper the better, as you can probably tell I'm usually on a pretty tight budget and buy a lot of aliexpress stuff ;p

Is there something like this out there, or am I better off just carrying an old phone charger I know will work with almost everything?

ECircuit USB Cables. (they also make the regular alkaline batteries)

Store by me had some for a long time, finally sold down and out, then recently got more or newer/updated packaging ones.

(Or for all I know they were found hiding in the backroom somewhere πŸ˜‚)

The USB-C to C cables work great and are fast charging for those newer phones so they can support the power. Best price on them as far as I'm concerned regardless of length, short of an Amazon or Temu type order where a pack of a few are bought instead of 1.

Even found and got a couple of the USB-C to USB-A adapter plugs for those cables to plug into almost anything to use/charge with.

See? Dollar Tree ain't ALL bad! πŸ˜πŸ˜‚ - I mean 1.25 for a cable...but go to a Walmart, Best Buy, big box store and it's an easy 10-15 for the same type of cable.

Now, if they ever got a hold of Apple cords...whoooo boy.

I know that technically it could be considered one because it uses USB2, but I’ve never heard anyone actually ever call a lightning cable a β€œusb cable”. Instead, it is a lightning cable that may have a USB-A port on one end.

Lightning cables all have USB-A or USB-C at the other end. I would never call it a USB cable, its only purposes is to connect to older Apple devices.

r/UsbCHardware on Reddit: USB-C Female to Lightning Adapter for Data Transfering. Do they exist?
July 7, 2025 -

So I got a "SABRENT Rocket 2230 1TB NVMe SSD" and attached it to a "SHARGE Disk M.2 NVMe SSD Enclosure."

The problem is that the enclosure uses USB-C and my IPhone is Lightning. Is there any USB-C Female to Lightning Male adapters that actually work for Data Transfering?

I need to transfer photos, videos and files out my phone for space, but I have seen reviews on products and they all say that none work for Data Transfering. Even MFI Certified Adapters only work for Charging.

If anyone knows of a good adapter that really works for Data Transfering, I'll appreciate it highly!
