Essential Cables You Can't Live Without

Cables. Seems like a pretty boring topic - but you'll be surprised! Here are some must-have cables that I carry with my all the time. Some of these may be more for teaching and presenting, but many of them are must-have cables that you will definitely NOT want to leave at home!

You can find links to many of these items (and more) on my Amazon Store:

I'm a student and I have gotten myself into the habit of carrying my cables with me, so this video is very useful! You never know when you will be able to pop down and have some study time.

Nice video! I carry a 6 ft retractable cable that has usb a, c, micro and lightening all in one. Of course, only one is active at a time.

Plus a couple blank usb drives😊

Might as well carry a coax with you! I refuse to buy any device that doesn't use USB-C at this point. I stopped carrying an ethernet cable around 2018 because I hadn't used it since 2016 and I really can't think of a single time when I was disappointed about it. I carry a 6ft 100watt USB-C, a backup 6in USB-C, and an external battery. I can charge my laptop, phone, iPad, headphones, battery etc., all with the same cord. If I need to plug my iPad or laptop into the external displays at school, I use Apple Airplay or a USB-C connection. The only electronic that I can't charge is my Ti84, that still uses mini USB

Awesome! Which portable charger are you using? I really need a laptop or something for on the go. If you need any more copyright free music that’s what I do.
