USB-C charging cable

Hello,
High voltage USB-C charging cable for the New Macbook available only at Mikegyver.



We wanted to clarify that our USB-C cable for the MacBooks are high powered USB, meaning it'll charge from 14+v source.  It will charge about 25% per hour with Macbook off.  The current offering on the market such as this:
http://www.belkin.com/us/p/P-F2CU032/
Will take about a day to charge.  It uses old standard USB-A port with is only 5v.

Thanks!

Why we only sell Genuine Surface Pro 3 cables

Hello,

We acquired a Surface Pro 3 cable that was made in China.  For those of you who care about quality here are reasons why we don't carry them:

1) LED bleeds through the plastic, and Stays on all the time!



2) Plastic is rough and does not meet seams well, this is susceptible to break apart easily.




3) Wire can separate from connector easily. OH NO!



4) Does not fully attach itself without you having to push it in. That means it’s not the right size!


Bottom Line, you are 10,000 feet in the Air, would you want this happening to you?

We strive for the best quality.

DIY: How to replace your Apple TV AC power Supply with our DC to DCpower adapter.

For those of you who wish to convert your AppleTV to pure DC power so that you can use it in Cars, boats, etc. read on!
Warning: Below is to be performed by knowledgable persons and handy with soldering, etc. WE accept no responsibility for any damages that might happen to your AppleTV, or anything related to this modification.
Our DC to DC board can be found here

Once again we don’t like to re-invent the wheel, so we’re going to refer you to ifixit.com for dis-assembly.

Pictures are curtesy of Guy H. He had requested us for the DIY option and we decided to go ahead with just selling the DIY DC to DC board instead of doing it for you.

1) You will need to re-use the connector cable from the AC board. After removing the AC power adapter from the Apple TV, if you peel back the coverings you’ll see that three wires are bundled with white shrink wrap. Those are the positive leads. The other 3 bundled wires are Black and they are the negative leads. The other two wires, leave open.

2) Solder the connector on to the DC to DC power board like so:




3) Position the DC to DC board where the AC power adapter used to be. Be careful to position the DC to DC board approximately 1mm away from the outer edges as the bottom cover needs room to snap back on.
Push through the DC power connector and fasten the input power connector where the AC plug used to be. Don’t forget to remove the fasten nut first.


4) Finally snap back on the bottom cover. It should seat normal and should not bulge. If so, the DC -DC board is in the way and you’ll need to re-position it.



Plug in the Car cig plug and have fun!

Thank you!
