New Vortex Race 3! Suggestions for a cable?
« on: Thu, 18 July 2019, 01:05:26 »


Got my first "legit" mechanical keyboard earlier this week and am absolutely loving it.  Vortex Race 3 with MX Silvers.  Got custom keycaps on the way as well.
Prior to this, was using a Corsair K70.  It worked well but took up way too much space on the desk and was a bit of an eyesore.

Since this keyboard connects via a (flimsy) Micro USB, I've seen several people suggest using a magnetically connected cable.  I bought one from Amazon and am really unsatisfied with how it looks (it just looks cheap and bulky).  Anyone have suggestions on a really low-profile, 90-degree / Right angle magnetic Micro USB that doesn't look like cheap garbage?  Scoured the internet and haven't really found anything suitable.

I'm a big fan of these magnetic cables. I use "NetDot 7th Generation Nylon ..." cables and they don't look cheap at all - at least the ones in all black. But I think they don't have angled versions.

I gave up looking for a magnetic cable after being disappointed with the one i got much like you were.

I instead got this off ebay or alibaba. Fast and simple to use, and keeps the keyboard port from being used up.
