Recommendation for spring coil USB A to C cable for car use

[galapogos]

Hi,
I'm looking for a spring coil USB A to C cable for use on my car. I have been using Baseus which I thought was a decent brand, but the connection becomes very bad after a few months, maybe due to the heat. Are there any better cables out there that last?

Go to Sim Lim Square Worldwide Computer at 6th floor facing lifts. Can't expect to last long if car is parked under hot sun.

get usb c to usb c instead. better built to charge 100w. should last longer.

My car USB in is Type A, so no point getting C-C. Also, I noticed that the Type C end is the finicky end (shake liao will disconnect). The Type A end seems to be fine (shake liao still connected).

How about just regular USB C cables that are rated for high temp usage?

No such.
But maybe you can try braided right angle cables.

To minimise cable clutter in the car.

Haha, I actually have this exact cable, but using it for my laptop instead. What do people use in the car then? Seems like regular cables don't stand up to high heat

If you are using CarPlay or Android Auto, i would suggest instead of coiled, why not a short cable,

i'm using a Baseus USB A to C... so far so good

Hmm why need to minimise?
My whole car can only see 1 cable lying around and that is the phone charging cable
Camera cable is hidden all the way
