Soldering Lightning Cable

Used it to replace some old 1/4 speaker cable ends. They work great and no soldering.

Opened it up. Soldering looks quality.

This is a really good pro grade spool of speaker cable. Rubber holds up VERY well to soldering heat.

I love having the option to feed an xlr cable through these things (some cable soldering required). Very sturdy, there's virtually no sag, and I'm using a large diaphragm compressor mic (AT-2020) which is pretty heavy. I never have to reposition/adjust this thing once I set the arms to where I want them to be, and the height of it is awesome. There's more expensive boom arms out there that offer little-to-nothing more than what the Samson MBA38 has to offer, so if you're considering a more expensive option: save your money and get this! No regrets from this buyer.

Having relied on others' XLR cables on numerous occasions until I got one with bad connections and no soldering kit available, I decided to get my own cable for audio recording on film shoots. There are lots of cables out there, even cheaper ones that are good enough to get the job done, but I chose this cable because of the different colors available. Every location I've been, it's always black XLR cables, but to see a different colored one, blue, in this case, it's easy to spot my cable and for it to not get mixed up with someone else's kit. I inspected the soldering on both ends and it looks solid. The piece that clamps onto the cable housing when tightening the cap on the connector really clamps tightly causing a depression mark on the cable housing as opposed to some knockoff brands I've seen that allows it to have some play when tight eventually causing separation of the soldered wires. I figure they call it Star-Quad because both ends have dual wires soldered to each tab and one thicker gauge wire soldered to the ground tab. The clamping piece also separates from the 3-pin housing allowing for re-soldering if necessary, but I doubt I'll have to do that anytime soon. Glad I got this.

The most needed tool for soldering jobs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Belkin International - BOOST↑CHARGE™ Lightning to USB-A Cable works perfectly. A few days after obtaining the charging cable we went to Mexico and my boost cable worked perfect. I had no issues with charging my iPhone and the charge was unbelievably quick. I left my device was properly protected and the cable length is great. Finding the right cable these days for me has been a challenge but this Belkin International - BOOST↑CHARGE™ Lightning to USB-A Cable is sturdy, the heads fit the charging ports with no force.

Easy soldering job and worked great!

Using the 6 foot cable to power my lightning charger on my nightstand. Excellent cable.

I use this product to carry my lightning shutter acctuator and cable and it fits perfect.
