This community is for discussing topics related to USB-C and USB-PD.
Primitive connectors like USB-A and Micro USB are not offtopic, but may elicit a smug sense of superiority.

I have tried a few. The ones with full connectivity had poor charging ability but the ones for charging only performed better. You should make sure to check the current they can handle before you buy.
I stopped using them on my phone but I still use them for my earbuds and a few other devices that I don't need to charge quicker. I work around a lot of fine metal dust that would get into the charging plug, so that may be a consideration even if you don't expect to be around metal particles(sand and dirt may have iron dust).
The Volta one's a linked claims 100W charging ~ but I can't find any reputable testers who've independently proven this. Is the slow charging speed the only reason for moving away from it?
The ferrous accumulation was an issue along with the charging.
I ended up only charging my phone wirelessly when I got a new phone.
