    @arturo182@mastodon.social I misread it as 1000W and for a second I was deeply worried.

    @arturo182@mastodon.social And as one should expect from the brand, those are 100W. Not your typical phone charger.

    @arturo182@mastodon.social At least they made a quality 100W cable. Makes sense.

    @arturo182@mastodon.social At this point, I think pretty much all the major tool manufacturers offer some kind of USB product (if not a low voltage tool, at least USB power supplies that run off their brand of batteries). I've seen USB-C cables branded by Milwaukee, DeWalt, Ryobi, etc. Now, as for who is actually making the cables...

    @arturo182@mastodon.social And *where* do they sell these?

    @arturo182@mastodon.social it will just be a bundle with their heated jackets or power bank adapters for tool batteries, nothing exotic.

    @arturo182@mastodon.social DeWalt also. I had one as part of their 100W PD battery charger/PD supply adapter kit. I write ‘had’… until the dog chewed through it.

    @arturo182@mastodon.social I’ve discovered that one of my cats really likes the USB cables with braided covers. 😤

  • @arturo182@mastodon.social I believe that tough looking thing should also be able to serve as a safety cable, in case of mouting works at height :)
