Hack Fix Lightning Port Cable

I use this to connect anything with a standard headphone cable to my iPhone Lightning port (older selfie stick, older Square reader, earbuds and headphones).

This does the job and does it well. It's helpful that it connects via lightning port and USB, I can go back and forth between my computers with ease.

This display port cable is a great value.

I'm not sure what else I could ask for in a dock. The only issue I've ran into was an issue using the ethernet port which was a simple fix in my network settings.

Laptops are port challenged. Your best fix is this HP dock. Ports for video, usb C and usb 2 or 3, cat 6 and more, and it makes no noise. Bravo!

Fix is fix

I'm very happy with this gimbal and actually only have one issue which I should have caught before committing to it - the lightning port is covered up when the phone is in the holder as designed which blocks use of an external mic. I am searching for a work around using Bluetooth or WiFi. Feedback and suggestions welcome. But back to the gimbal. It handles my iPhone 12 just great. The feel is that of having a very sturdy build. The app is a great adjunct to the gimbal amd the features all work beautifully. It's a keeper and I'd definitely recommend it with the one caveat about the lightning port.

When using an external mic with a TRRS plug on your iPhone mounted in a rig or gimbal that blocks the lightning port, this allows you to use the lightning port without either crimping the cable or moving your iPhone so far away from the rig as to exacerbate balance problems. You only need move your iPhone about 19/32 away from the obstructive gimbal. I could not find any competing products.

I have a 6th gen iPad and this adapter connected to the lightning port and to a recent 55 TV. The results were excellent. Nice sharp picture and clean, full audio. Can't do any better than that

I use my 2017 iMac for music composition and recording. I wanted to connect a fast USB 3.0/Lightning hard drive to be online with the iMac all the time to use as a dedicated hard drive for music recording. I have a USB audio interface and MIDI keyboard controller connected all the time to the iMac and I found that the four iMac USB host ports were completely occupied when doing a Time Machine backup to another USB 3.0 external hard drive, so I wanted to move my dedicated music hard drive (G-Technology G Drive Mobile 1 TB USB 3.0/Lightning drive) to a Lightning 3 port on the iMac. I wanted to utilize a Lightning 3 port and also to free up a USB 3.0 host port. The Apple Thunderbolt 3 Male to Thunderbolt 2 Female Adapter allows me to do just that. The adapter powers the Lightning drive and provides fast I/O with no fuss.
