Say Goodbye to Frayed Cables Forever with the Syncwire UNBREAKcable

If you’re a tech user, you’ve likely experienced your fair share of frayed cables and broken wires. Say goodbye to flimsy wires with the Syncwire UNBREAKcable.

This cable has definitely earned its “UNBREAKcable” moniker. This heavy-duty, hardy cable is equipped with a tinplate interior, TPE jacket exterior, and wrapped internal wires. Not even the 30,000 90-degree bends they tested this thing with can fray this cable. That’s why you won’t experience any friction or fraying, as the cable is roughly 30 times stronger than traditional ones.

Charge your devices without ever having to deal with snags and frayed fires. The Syncwire UNBREAKcable is available in Lightning, MicroUSB, and USB-C versions in the Technabob Shop, with prices ranging from $8.99 to $10.99 – a 33% to 42% savings.

SONICable lets you cut charge times in half for any gadget

SONICable

Gadgets keep getting better and more powerful, but our batteries seem to last less and less with each upgrade. And being that the foreseeable future this is going to remain this way, SONICable aims to at least cut the charge times.

If you use your phone as much as statistics say most of us do you’re very aware of the cruel reality of having to recharge it during the day. Aware of this, the SONICable team came up with an idea that is rather different from portable chargers and battery extenders: a cable that allows your gadgets to charge twice as fast thanks to some clever design decisions such asusing dual sided USB connectors with Aluminium tip.

The SONICable not only performs better than any other cable, but it’s also more durable and stronger than its competitors, according to the creators, and comes with either a Lightning connector for iPhone or micro USB for Android.

The way SONICable works is by using a switch that allows it to change modes. When it’s off, it’s just a regular USB cable, and performs all of the same taks, but once it’s on, it loses sync capabilities and uses all that spare power to charge your gadgets in a much, much faster way. Users interested in it might want to check their Indiegogo page and pledge their support.

ChargeCard is the Thinnest, Handiest USB Cable You’ll Ever Use

ChargeCard

Most USB cables for the iPhone are pretty handy enough as they are. But if you’re the type of person who’s always looking for something more (or something better), then your search for the thinnest, handiest, and most compact USB cable ends with the ChargeCard.

It’s basically a USB cable that you can use to charge and sync your iPhone or iPod, without the actual wire itself. It’s as thick as a standard credit card, so it’ll fit right into your wallet, pocket, or wherever easily.

Want it? Make a minimum pledge of $20 on KickStarter and get your very own ChargeCard delivered straight to your home, once it’s manufactured. (And it will be, because the project has already raised over $60,000 more than the intended $50,000 goal.)

Check out more images of the ChargeCard in action after the jump.

Insert Coin: Twig, the tiny iPhone cable that’s also a tripod (video)

In Insert Coin, we look at an exciting new tech project that requires funding before it can hit production. If you'd like to pitch a project, please send us a tip with "Insert Coin" as the subject line.

Imagine an iPhone cable that was only four-inches long, doubled as a tripod and could bend to your every whim? That's the idea behind Twig, designed by former WIMM engineer Jason Hilbourne, who wanted something sturdier, smaller and more portable than Cupertino's "limp noodle." In partnership with an iOS accessory maker, the cable's three sturdy prongs will transform into a dock, wrap around objects or create a free-standing tripod for your FaceTime needs. It needs $50,000 to turn from dismembered action-figure prototype to reality, with an $18 pledge enough to secure you one of the first to leave the factory. After the break we've got the pitch footage, which includes what happens when you start prototyping with your Speed Racer dolls.
