4-Pin Magnetic USB Charging Cable – 60 cm with Secure 0.1-Inch Connector

Description

If you love power adapters or toys & gadgets that have magnetic connections, you can now experiment with these futuristic connectors easily. This is a DIY “MagSafe-styled” USB cable, with four 0.1″ spaced contact pogo pins that feed to a standard USB-A connector on the other side. Each pogo connects to power, ground, D+ and D-.

Connect with another 4-pin half and the embedded magnets attract, making a firm connection and assuring that all the pogo pins make contact. If you try to connect the contacts backward, they will repel! If you’ve ever owned a MacBook or a littleBits set, you’ll find the functionality familiar.

Perfect for USB power/data connections on any microcontroller or maybe a keyboard?

Note: This product only includes the cable that has a magnetic connector on the end. You do not get the matching connector. The cable matches up with the four contact pin DIY magnetic connector set which needs to be purchased separately.
