USB cables

I wanted to move my board to a table a little further from my computer and my cable wasn't long enough. So I bought one of these:

(Perhaps I should say I bought three of them as they only come in sets of three). I wanted the L-shape which only came in the Gen 12 cable but fortunately that fitted my board as the USB plug on mine protrudes slightly from the main case. If the plug was recessed into the board I would have had to get one of the earlier Gen plugs with the squarer inserts. It works really well! I'd never come across these magnetic cables until I bought my Certabo - thanks Pietro!

Hi Graham

Thank you very much for sharing some picture, the Gen12 looks actually very cool as you can even rotate the plug.

Yes we find those quite comfortable and actually we shall forward the thank to another Certabo friend Ingo. As couple of year ago after getting the board he replaced the standard cable with one of those and sent us a picture, then we thought they were really cool and we switched to those cables on all our models as they are definitively great and safe pop off especially for big models.

All the best

Pietro
