Using a long charging cable (that’s a cable with over 1 meter of length) comes with its challenges. Yes, you get to enjoy the extra reach that it provides, but there is the problem of increased resistance and power loss.
I share details on the different scenarios in which using a short cable, a standard charging cable, and a long charger cable are valid. Plus, the maximum cable length you should limit yourself to.
Regardless of length, these cables are available in USB-C to USB-C and USB-A to USB-C.
