we need a usb type c extension cord and have no idea where to get one
looking on amazon no reputable brands seem to make them (i think they're against the usb standard but we do need one) so i'm not sure what's a good quality one
-F
@Felthry hubs aren't against spec
@noiob a cable with a USB C plug on one end and a jack on the other without a hub chip though? because that's what we're looking for, just a plain wire
-F
@Felthry that's definitely against spec, and might severly impact transfer speed
@noiob don't care about transfer speed, just need it to work for charging with PD
-F
@Felthry why not just get a longer cable for your existing charger?
@noiob it's the one that came with the steam deck
i'm not sure what the advantage of gan is in things like that honestly? does it get marginally better efficiency or something? wide bandgap semiconductors mostly excel in high voltage and high temperature applications, and this is neither
-F
@Felthry it's smaller
@noiob dunno if it needed to be but sure, I guess?
(we work for a company that makes SiC stuff, we're a little biased against GaN)
-F
@Felthry personally I think a charger that's half the size of my existing one is a significant improvement
@Felthry well, that's just bad
they do make nice GaN ones these days though
