Which is a fair offer if you don't have to research USB-C for 2 days just to then order the wrong cable anyway.

I'm a Google Pixel user that's been using USB C to charge my phone, laptops and other devices/accessories for years now and I've never run into this issue before. It just works.

Charging is rarely an issue. At worse you will charge at 5V/1A=5W as it’s the common minimum that any USB cable with basically just 2 wires connected will provide.

So any crappy USB cable will ´work’ for charging, and it’s transparent enough that you won’t really notice in most case.
