Split Charge And Data Wires Of Micro Usb

I use this to split 3-Pin DMX lighting data.

This is my first non-Fuji autofocus lens. I researched the crap out of various new 3rd party lenses before making this purchase, and was *still* pleasantly surprised by the image quality, low light performance and rendering. I love shooting at night and this lens does NOT disappoint. Both manual and back button focusing are a breeze, and the autofocus works quickly and quietly. The only negatives: A stepless aperture ring on a fly-by-wire lens is useless on a Fuji camera -- especially for video, as exposure changes aren't smooth.. ever. But that's Fuji's issue, not the Viltrox. The ring is stiff enough to avoid accidental changes most of the time.. but I would have preferred incremental half-stop clicks. The other negative is purely aesthetic -- the Viltrox doesn't look as cool/retro as Fuji cameras and some of their primes.. so in a way this lens looks *decades* newer than my X-T3! Also, when updating firmware, be sure and purchase a USB micro *data* cable. I have about 10 USB-micro cables around the house, but NONE worked because they're designed for device charging rather than data transfer. I almost returned the lens before I figured this out.

You dont have to throw out your old USB wires. You just need to get an USB C adapter and your electronics will charge faster. This product does the trick.

I bought two from B&H, both match in color. However the USB C charge wire on one is garbage and won't charge. The one garbage wire looks like it works but the unit never shows anything but charging at two bars and turns off. I don't think it is charging anything. Both lights work fine when charged with the good wire. I should take off a star for the bad wire, but I like them too much to be that petty over an inexpensive wire. I just ordered two new replacement USB c charging wires to replace the included ones. It is a shame manufacturers include garbage wires. If I hadn't had a second one to test, I'd probably have returned the light as not working- a complete waste of everyone's time. I got the light modifier accessory kits to go with them. Useful and well made. The storage bags for the lights and accessories are also very well made. I took out a grid I wasn't using and replaced the light unit in the slot so I don't have to carry two cases.

Brighter than the F12 and very useful. Downside is the charge port is old style micro-USB and not USB-C

This is a warranty exchange from its predecessor with the micro USB charge port and it's definitely brighter and charges faster. The only downside I noticed was the switch. It is recessed and can be problematic to turn on and off. Also it gets hot while on high, don't know if it's normal but will be checking into this. Otherwise it's good.

not much to say. these micro USB cables are accessories to charge and sync my iPhone through the mophie charger (iPhone 6s)

Full Disclosure: Coast provided me this ZX600 battery in order for me to test it out. But, everything I will talk about in this review is my own opinion. Coast Portland was not given copy approval nor any editorial input in this review. That means, they're reading this review for the first time along side you. These are the topics I will cover. Skip to whatever corresponding number in order to read about that specific topic and find what you are looking for. 1) Overview 2) What I Dislike 3) Charging Port/Charging Indicator 5) Charge Time/Battery Satistics 6) Thoughts The Individual Topics Begin Here: 1) Overview: • The ZX600 battery is desighned to fit in place of 3 AA batteries • It is a lithium-polymer battery • It has a hard casing and can be inserted only one way with large marking denoting positive (+) and negative (-) 2) What I Dislike: • I dislike the use of a Micro-USB port to charge the battery instead of a newer USB-C port • Recharge time is ridiculously long 3) Charging Port/Charging Indicator • There is a Micro-USB port on the front of the battery • There is a charging indicator to the left of the Micro-USB port • A solid red light indicates charging and a solid green light indicates the battery is fully charged 4) Charge Time/Battery Satistics: • The battery was tested from completely dead Rated Capacity: 2100 mah Tested Capacity: 2241 mah Charge Speed: 450 mah Time: 5 hours 34 minutes 5) Thoughts: I really like the concept of this battery. I love how it is designed to just fit in place of where AA batteries normally go while still allowing the use of AA batteries if necessary without any fuss. I do wish they would make a generation 2 of this battery adding much needed improvements. Overall, it is a genius solution.

Lightning and micro usb are very convenient! Charge lasts extremely long! Wish it had a USB port, but was going to use this for Apple products and micro usb products anyway!

If you have an Android smartphone, you probably use a micro-B plug to charge it. With this adapter, you can take a USB drive (thumb drive) and plug into this adapter and then into the phone. Now you can copy all those pictures from your phone onto the USB drive. I hope this helps!
