Have not cause fire...I think my phone just stop charging with the cable when it gave me the overheating notice so not sure if it would had started a fire if I didn't remove the cable when it gave me the notice.
How do you know what is too cheap vs a cheap one for a high price?
Only a matter of time he goes "Just kidding guys!" again lol.
Aren't all the protections built into the device anyway? I've plugged my phones into some pretty sketchy cables and it can almost always figure out if something is wrong (water, debris, unstable connection, slow charging, etc.)

If you're using these cheap ass cables to charge your iPhone 16 Pro Max Extreme Plus, yeah it's a bit weird. You're going to get a super slow charge out of them and you risk possibly damaging your device. But with so many things using USB-C now, and not wanting to dedicate a $12 Anker cable to them (and a charging brick), it's convenient to have these. Especially the fact it's USB-A makes it much easier to find somewhere to plug it into than using a USB-C brick and USB-C to USB-C cable. Moreso than the low price is the fact that the USB C has a USB A connector on the other side which seems to be less common nowadays

Maybe you should look for a $2000.00 cable to be safe!

I slow charger my iPhone 16 pro over nights it's better for battery life. I use an old iPad power block with a USB A to C cable I got from Aldi. I still have few items that still run of micro usb i.e. my Li-ion battery charger, I'll keep these USB A blocks for as long as I can.
