so far EXCELLENT! LED is a huge win!!!
Charge WATTS are spot on! I have an Anker 200W combined battery and it'll charge at a true 100W with each USB C port and this cable keeps that specification perfectly, the transfer speed is also 480Mbos as advertised....I LOVE seeing how many watts a device is being charged at so I make sure the right device is charging from the right port! Super handy, nice and bright even in the day and the font size is clearly legible even at a glance despite the size of the plug (only one side of the cable end has the led so make sure to have that *up" so you can see the wattage being provided. Only one end of the cable has the led also so make sure the non led end is in the charger and the led end is "up" and going into the device for easy info at a glance...nice and bright and the cables handle the full charge capacity they're rated at,! Mine go up to 100W so they're doing their job!! :-) Couldn't be happier Hope they last but there is potential of display end breakage if you're not careful and run it over with an office chair or something so be mindful of that I use a huge 2 arm binder clamp like the ones to hold 200 piece of paper and clamp that to my desk edge and run the cable through the little handle on the clamp so it doesn't fall back through but stays in place at my desk level so I didn't t have to reach for it and pull it back up to the surface of desk Nice little tricky zi learned years back...the only thing that's silly is the pic of the hammer supposedly NOT damaging the cable end! LOL! A hammer could definitely DESTROY this but it'd take a few very hard strikes, it's just funny when these sellers show that, as if....but it US VERY strong too. Not cheapie metal that gets punched when stepped on or bumped by a chair wheel etc It's of Great quality for sure!!

Very accurate power measurements up to 100 watts
This USB C-to-C cable measures the wattage going into the connected device. The cable is very high quality with a braided outer covering protecting the cable from abrasions. The ends are surrounded in a rubber-like material to prevent the ends from breaking off the cable. This is a well built cable, NOT a cheapie.It's rated for 100W max and I've tested it by connecting a 100W Ankery charging block to an Anker C300 solar battery. The usual concern would be that the cable warms up with so much current, but this cable stayed cool to the touch for the 1 hour it was connected.The display is accurate, it matched what the C300 said it was receiving. I've purchased more, in different lengths, since I purchased this first set. Highly recommended if you want to see how much power is going to your various devices. You might be surprised at how little or how much power a particular device will use. I've been able to reduce charge times by pairing the right charging block to my devices with help from this cable.I liked the first couple of these so much that I've since purchased more, they are priced similar to high end USB cables that DON'T display the wattage. Highly recommended.

1ft Works for my MS Surfacebook and Cell phone, 10ft works for charging
What the product description doesn't tell you is the LED display will read power in either direction, charging or consuming (source/sink). Some other cables with this display require the display plug to be on the device consuming side (sink) to display anything.This 1ft cable provides power charging and transfer of picture data between my laptop and phone. My laptop can take up to 80W charging at (100W) 20V/5A negotiated supply setting, and phone 8W negotiated 5V/2.4A setting. This power display closely matches measurements taken with other devices I own.This cable appears to work with the USB Type-A→Type-C and Micro→Type-C adapters I purchased for legacy devices and legacy sources, Power & Data. Eventually, everything I own will be converted to USB-C.I bought 4 cables, 2 for work, and 2 for home. For me, this was/is a great purchase, and not much more cost than a cable without displays. I prefer the display, so I can see everything is plugged in and operating correctly. And for solar applications, very nice to see how much power is being consumed.Edit 5/16/2023 (for 10ft cable):I recently found myself in the hospital and discovered 6ft is barely long enough to reach the wall from the bed for my laptop. The 1ft cables worked so well for me that I bought the 10ft cables, thinking I'd get the same performance. Turns out 10ft has an issue worth noting for data rates. First the summary:Pro:- 10ft and 1ft will do USB-C PD and higher wattage (100W). My laptop can draw average 70W when operating and charging at the same time. The cable end with the meter gets fairly warm at 70W. Warm is not hot, but warm enough to make me wonder what happens at 100W(5A) if it gets this warm at 70W (3.5A).- 10ft is great for longer distance to sofa, hospital bed, etc. power delivery convenience.Con:- USB 2.0 speed: On the product packaging, it says 480Mbps, which is USB 2.0 speed. My laptop and phone aren't able to detect this USB 2.0 cable limitation and negotiate a higher speed, which the 1ft cable does work, the 10ft cable doesn't. I spent an hour wondering why everything was powered correctly, but I couldn't transfer pictures to my laptop through this 10ft cable, but can using the 1ft version. This is obviously a transmission line design problem. The vendor packaging is up front and honest about this limit if you know how to interpret what is said, and this 10ft performance detail isn't posted in the Amazon advertisement. So if USB 3.0 and higher are needed for data rates, this 10ft cable may not be right for you as an all-in-one solution.- The cable is thick/stiff, which I expect since it is going to need thicker wire to meet USB-C specifications for end-to-end maximum voltage drop (loss <1V). Not sure whether this is a con, rather a reality consumers should know. I'm all about proper performance, so it is what it is, and this cable does it right for PD level (high wattage) charging.I'll be returning one of the two packages for the USB 2.0 data delivery reason. This will leave me with one pair of 10ft cables, which can be used for high power charging in situations where a 10 ft cable is needed and lack of data can be accepted, like in a hospital bed.For consumers trying to "future-proof", this is an intermediate USB-C solution which works as described for 100W USB 2.0 data applications.240W USB-C (48V@5A) is close on the horizon. I suspect these 100W cables with meters will not be able to accept the higher than 20V voltages (48V) negotiated by 240W source and 240W sink with 40GHz data rates. The cables which can do this are currently scarce due to newness of the specification and currently nearly twice as expensive. If you plan to go to 240W later, you may want to only buy the 100W quantity you need now. For instance, I don't see 10ft 240W USB-C available anywhere, 3ft-yes, 10ft-no, and I do want the power meter like this cable provides.
