Why would cables, notably USB C cables, work differently depending on the power source? I've got a few (4 pack) highly rated cables that work fine as far as fast charging when used w/ all of the QC3 rated wall chargers, but don't always work well when used w/ QC3 rated power banks. Note that I have other cables that work just spiffy w/ those same power banks and phones. Ain't all electrons the same? FYI, the various cables are mostly different colors in my attempt to color code them in different locations for spousal unit's benefit. The many swaps make it clear that something goofy is afoot, and I'm hoping y'all will be able to explain it.
GRAY USB C cable works fine for QC3 everywhere... no issues, but already using gray for micro USB cables on 6 port wall charger, w/ white for USB C and red for Apple lightning cables.
RED USB C cable works fine w/ all single and multi-port QC3 rated wall chargers and devices. Also works w/ BLACK 20KmAh QC3 power bank,
but not w/ WHITE 20KmAh power bank, or black 10KmAh power bank, w/ QC3 phones, but does work w/ QC2 phone.
For cable rationing, I want to use the red USB C cables w/ all of the QC3 power banks, but this color coding system has gone awry.
Why, oh why, oh why???
Thanks.
