◆ Photo review
This is the package of "InfiniteUSB".


On the side of the box, InfiniteUSB color type · length is written.


Also, on the side of the other side, the logo is affixed with a petal so that you can see that it is a project of Kickstarter.


So, I tried arranging InfiniteUSB which I got immediately. From the left with orange, green, blue, pink and gray, the left two are 120 cm cables, the rest are 20 cm cables. Green and gray are Micro - USB terminal, the rest are equipped with Lightning terminal.


The one with 120 cm has a band for bundling cables.


The band is elastic type with elastic material, it can be handled easily.


The terminal part contains "VOJO +" like this with letters.


Depending on the thing, the terminal part may be dirty ......


Parts around the terminal were dirty.


A flat type is adopted as a cable.


The terminal to be inserted on the USB port side is the core. This time I purchased InfiniteUSB for USB Type C all.


Looking at the Type C terminal from the front. You can see that both sides are reversible.


Type C port on the back.


Magnets are embedded in the terminal parts at both ends of the cable so that they can be fitted perfectly as shown below.


◆ I actually tried using it
So, prepare a MacBook equipped with a Type C port ... ...


Insert InfiniteUSB.


If you insert the Lightning terminal into the iPhone, you can successfully charge the terminal.


It is here from InfiniteUSB to demonstrate its true value. Insert a new InfiniteUSB into the Type C port attached to InfiniteUSB.


Since the second InfiniteUSB used the one of the Micro-USB terminal, I tried charging the Kindle.


The charging lamp on the bottom of the Kindle is lit in orange and you can confirm that the terminal is securely powered.


I just tried charging the iPad mini using the third one of InfiniteUSB ......


In the iPad mini's battery gauge, the letters "Not charging" has been displayed.


InfiniteUSB is charging from the same USB port at the same time from the left three iPad mini · Kindle · iPhone, although charging Kindle and iPhone can be charged, iPad mini was not able to charge.


At this time, when looking at the screen of the MacBook, a warning "Please disconnect devices with high power consumption to re-enable the USB device" was displayed. As a result of trial and error, when charging a tablet with high power consumption such as iPad mini, it seems that up to 2 terminals are connected at the same time.


InfiniteUSB 's Type C port ......


I tried connecting the power adapter of the MacBook. However, it can not charge the MacBook.


Furthermore, add InfiniteUSB of Micro-USB terminal ......


IPhone · Kindle · iPad mini · When I tried charging Nexus 5 at the same time, I could not charge iPad mini only. We succeeded in charging the other three at the same time.


Furthermore, I tried connecting the USB memory from the Type C port of InfiniteUSB ......


MacBook firmly recognized the USB memory.


Although I actually used it, I could charge up to 4 units (3 smartphones / 1 Kindle) simultaneously from one port without USB hub, though the number of terminals that can be charged at the same time is limited due to the problem of power consumption. InfiniteUSB seems to be the best USB cable for those who normally carry mobile terminals, such as people who carry smartphones and tablets, and people who want to charge smartphones, routers, and e-books at the same time.

InfiniteUSB is sold on the following page, and it is 99 dollars (about 9900 yen) for 5 sets and $ 29 (about 2900 yen) if it is 1 piece. However, it is necessary to be careful that all those sold are not compatible with Type C ports, but are compatible with ordinary USB ports.
