Tez Cables E-Series Custom CoiLED Aviator Keyboard Cables (5 ft, Black, GX-16)

I used it for a few days and it randomly just stopped working. waiting for this cable around a month and it just stops working. Sad#

OK, so I’m not gonna lie I really didn’t need this, but I like the look of the cord and I probably should have spent a little bit more more but I decided to give this a shot and as soon as I installed it, I noticed it dropped but since I haven’t moved it, the keyboard has been working so I guess you’ll have dropping issues if you constantly move your keyboard but my set up is so far working, or if you’re just looking for cleaning up wires and having a cleaner look, then I would go with this, just be aware that there might be a drop issue, but mine was only again due to moving. I think the connector at the USB-C is the culprit overall give it a B+. Only reason I give it a B+ is due to the shrink wrap at the USB-C end.

The white, slim, no coils connector is my third or fourth cable from Tez Cables. Construction is perfect and price is great. Looks great against my Zoom65 with Ivory Cream/Anodized Rosegold.

This is my 2nd tez cable. I have had a white one for a few months and it’s still in perfect shape.

Pretty decent isn’t worth 35 but what ever

For those not in the know, these are cool-looking cables that work as they normally would any other USB-C cable but look cool. These are usually used for custom keyboards on a person's work desk or PC gaming setup. The reason these are so cheap is that they're premade and very small compared to custom aviator cables. You're limited to the colors shown here instead of customizing the color of every part of the cable; allowing most people to match the cable to the exact colorway of their keyboard, deskmat, and other electronics in their setup. More expensive custom aviator cables tend to retain their shape better but I think that there are so many options out there that that's pretty inconclusive. A few vendors are also willing to make massively huge (or just longer) aviator cables if you're willing to pay for them.Honestly, there's a lot of dumb things in the custom keyboard hobby but massive aviator cables have to take the cake. At the end of the day, you can just buy a regular, straight cable and a cheapo plastic, mechanical keyboard and I think we all know that. If you're wondering what the big deal is; it's no different from buying $2-$300 sneakers because they're in a specific, limited edition colorway and another manufacturer comes out with the same colorway for $75; that's basically what's happening here. Most aviator cables are $50 - $100 from most e-tailers and online designers for the reasons explained. I actually like collecting these cables (as silly as it is) and happy somebody out there is forcing prices down. I'm also impressed with how many cable colors Tez Cables is churning out.I do want to mention that the ACTUAL use of aviator cables is so you can connect USB-C, mini and micro USB to the end by detaching and re-attaching different cable parts, ideally reducing the number of cables you have to buy and store. Maybe Tez already has those options but it may be worth looking into, to get more use out of these kinds of cables. I would do more research and shopping around though.Thanks for reading.Sam C.
