Plantronics Micro Usb Charger

[3' / 0.9 m] [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm so glad I chose this micro USB charger from Belkin. The length of the charger is perfect for my needs, not too long or too short. The best part is that it charges extremely fast which is a big plus when charging my devices. This is a great product from Belkin!

[Yes, on Boom] Purchased this to attempt to upgrade an old Plantronics USB headset with foam ear pads. I liked the foam pads because it didn't isolate outside noise too much which means sidetone isn't quite as important. Comparing these to those, these are more comfortable, but I haven't fully adjusted to increased isolation yet. The adjustment on the headset was pretty loose on one side and would adjust the height when taking the set off. I ended up removing the screws on that side and bending the metal piece to add some stiffness. It's lame that I had to do that, but it now works perfectly. Overall, I don't think I could have found a better headset for my needs, which are conference calls and music.

[Omnidirectional] It offers both a USB connection for my computer and a headset jack for my phone. I downloaded Plantronics software for my Windows 10 PC. I am very pleased with this product

[Micro-USB-B] Micro USB cords are common everywhere. Glad to have this gizmo which functions just as well as my OEM adapter but the fit is more firm, secure. Very useful bc a lot of my devices take micro USB which I always have on me. Always great to have options. Plus OEM and some Lightning charge cords aren't durable. Inexpensive (3 pack price is great) to have these adapters on my micro cords or in bag. Naturally paranoid and cautious, I have yet to try data sync with it. Still trust OEM for that specific job. *(This is no directive, I’ve evaluated for what worked from my experience, your needs and results may differ. Engage at your own risk.)

I have another review that I wrote about this mic, but B&H's website doesn't appear to let me update that review. I've now been using this mic almost daily for over a year. The audio is crisp and clear, background noise is kept to a minimum, and people on the other end of the meeting/phone call give compliments on the detail that this mic captures. I used to use a condenser mic, but that also had the annoying feature of picking up a lot of 60Hz hum. This mic doesn't do that and I didn't have to make any adjustments to the room either. For the person who mentioned they couldn't fit it in a shockmount, it has one internally. That is why the mic is the size that it is. For those complaining about the USB port, mine hasn't had any issues. I accidentally bent the micro usb connector on the cheap cable they shipped with it and the mic survived just fine. The cable, on the other hand, was useless after that. I solved this problem by finding a 90 degree USB adapter so that the connector isn't pointing straight out the back of the mic. It now sits mostly flush and swiveling the mic is more likely to cause the adapter to disconnect at the other end. If your laptop, like mine, is usb-c only, don't try to buy long usb-c to usb-c cables. They are crazy expensive. Instead, try to buy a usb-c to mini or micro usb-b cable. They are much cheaper. My setup is usb-c to micro usb (10 feet), then an adapter from micro-usb to usb-c (1 inch), and then finally a short usb-c to 90 degree micro-usb adapter (6 inches).

[14.8 Wh] I love that it can work with either micro-usb or USB-C cables. The LEDs provide a nice monitor of your charge progress. Really like this little charger.

[0.03 lb] Needed this for charging from a micro-USB cable. Works great for that.

[0.9 oz (25.5 g)] Besides compact, it also has USB-c and micro-USB ports for charging! It was excellent!

[ 5 VDC at 2 A] I like this charger just a little better than the one I got with my gimbal because of the usb c type connection
