Im lookin for a couple. I know to stay away from el cheapos because they have high internal resistance and will only charge devices at a max around 500 mah when i need cables that do 1000. I also have to get long longs, 5 ft at least, 6 would probably work real well. From reading i need 28/24 gauge wires but i cant seem to find them in longer sizes. I know its made harder by the fact that longer wires will have more resistance. Any help yall? The cheaper the better.
low resistance extra long micro usb cable?

I just checked my big thick one and it's "Amazon Basics". 6ft I don't know the specs on it tho. I just ordered them for the length and it came that thick.
The Amazon Basics wall plugs are junk tho.

What do you use it to charge? If its a phone does it charge at the same rate as your oem cable?
It's actually on computer duty right now. I use common cables to charge my 1A Istick30. And they work well.
I've almost always used USB charged PV's and the only difference I've ever noticed was a slower charge from an innokin paper-thin retractable type cable.
I'd think a restrictive wall adapter would cause more problems than a cable. The needs of our PV's are usually lower than a phone or tablet.

Well i found some that should work well and had great reviews. Went with two 6ft 28/24 gauge premium micro usb cables from monoprice. $8.60 shipped. Just what i needed.
A lot of Amazon Basics stuff is junk.
I bought AAA batteries and their life span was about half of Panasonic of Duracell.
I also got a protective cover for my iPod touch 4th gen and the AB cover was 1/32 too long and my iPod touch would not stay in.
I don't buy AB products any more.
Yeah, I'll probably look at Belkin or Anker on there nextime. Thought they'd have higher standards if they put their name on it. Guess not.
