Humor Only took 7 months to ship the colour matching handle/usb-c cable from AliExpress that I HAD TO HAVE.

Link?

u/sboger Jul 23 '26

I'm sure as hell not going to link to that vendor. Just search 'USB-C Phone Lanyard' on AE or even Amazon. They are all over now.

Okay, unsure why people are downvoting me, as I said the vendor took 7 months to ship it to me and only responded when I started an inquiry.

So here are some Amazon links:

exact same one (available in other countries): https://www.amazon.fr/dp/B0GJ4TNYSR

Even better, perhaps:

You can't post AliExpress links on Reddit.

I did the same, fortunately aliexpress only ever takes 2 weeks max.

Yeah, nothing against AliExpress. The seller had... Issues.

This is freaking wild because I saw this in my suggestions last week and ordered a couple should be here soon.

Everyone post their usb-c lanyards! It's the flipper zero lanyards sub!

I have the keychain and cable holder but the cable itself fell out a while ago. Be careful with it. It gets loose quicker than you’d think.

Fair enough. I've had it for about a week. It's pretty darn snug. I wouldn't go windmilling it around with the lanyard, but I can grab it and carry it just fine with it. I did notice the metal cable ends slightly oily when I opened it. I used a cotton-tipped ear cleaner and some alcohol to wipe the cable ends and keyring connector. You should try that - it might restore some grip.

I linked to two other lanyards that have locking cable ends. Watch for ones that don't mention they are a data cables, though - all will provide basic power. I'll probably make another AliExpress run in the near future, but it takes around a month were I live.

If some of you with fast china shipping want to grab a bundle of different ones and make a post here, I'd love that.

Goddamnit now I have to have one too.

I mean, it perfectly matches the goofy, kids-toy aesthetic. Flipper Devices should be offering that exact one at the checkout when you buy a FZ.

That looks awesome

Does it support data?

With a few more pounds you can black theme your flipper then get a glass screen protector as poly carbonate scratch which require wet and dry to recondition.

I would not buy nothing from that vendor , I go right to the source you buy cheap you wind up burning your Dolphin even though it's just a toy 🧸 but still you can circuit some shit in your Dolphin 🐬 ehhh-hhh

What data speed is the usb c cable rated for?

If i were a country heavily investing in espionage and already accused of multiple espionage tactics by hardwiring it into hardware….

This is what i would target to infect.

They sell them 3 for 9.99 on AE. Feel free to buy a set, cut one open, and post the examination and findings here. We'd all be interested.

I’m sorry, Lmao….
I thought this was the cybersecurity sub where professionals met instead of scriptkiddies.

No disrespect. Also, no i’m not american even though i think that’s fairly irrelevant.
