It is 2024 and a leap year!
I’m looking forward to 366 days of 2024. There are a lot of important things happening this year. You know what they are.
Hope we can get through the year without a scratch. Let’s get back you our primes!
Edward Van Halen, Funko Pop with 1978 Eruption Guitar
Can you tell that I am a Van Halen fan?
Just delivered yesterday, an Edward Van Halen Funko Pop with 1978 Eruption Guitar.
Correction, it is 1978 Eruption Guitar, not 1976.
This is how I CarPlay with iPhone 15 Pro Max
If you need USB-C to USB-A cable to use CarPlay and iPhone 15., make sure it is a data cable.
There are some USB-C to USB-A cables that is designed for one way charging, which will not work for CarPlay.
I prefer thin and braided USB-C to USB-A cables.
Now I want Wireless CarPlay.
UGREEN USB-C to USB-A Cables for iPhone 15 and CarPlay
I just received a few UGREN UGREEN USB-C to USB-A Cables today.
UGREEN USB 3.0 Fast Charging Cable, 3.3ft
UGREEN USB A to USB C Cable, Type C Fast Charger Cable 6.6ft
UGREEN USB C Cable 2 Pack USB C Fast Charging Cable 3A USB Cable 6.6 ft
All of the cables are braided and thin, as the 6.6ft versions are thinner than its 3.3ft counterpart.
All 3 cables can be used with iPhone 15 and CarPlay in cars that only have USB-A ports.
In previous post, I tested an Anker PowerLine II UGREEN USB-C to USB-A Cable for iPhone 15 and CarPlay compatibility. Yes it is compatible, but the cable itself is thick and a bit too stiff. I’ll be using this cable as USB-C data-transfer cable with computers.
iPhone 15 and CarPlay: Anker PowerLine II USB-C to USB 3.1 Gen2 cable
If you’re looking for iPhone 15/iPhone 15 Pro and CarPlay compatible USB-C to USB 3.1 Gen2 cable, you might want to try Anker PowerLine II cable.
I happened to have a braided Anker PowerLine+ II USB-C to USB-A cable that I bought back in 2018; which is no longer available for purchase. It works with iPhone 15 for CarPlay; for CarPlay-compatible automobiles that are still equipped with USB-A port.
I also have some other USB-C to USB-A cables. Almost all of them are not CarPlay compatible as they are primarily charging cables; not for data transfers.
I just received Anker PowerLine II USB-C to USB 3.1 Gen2 cable; it works with iPhone 15 and CarPlay.
I’m ordering a few more cables to test if they work with iPhone 15 and CarPlay.
Trying to figure out which side the gas is on.
Can someone help me figure out which side their gas tank is on?
Going to the Car Wash
T-minus one week to Apple September 12 special event.
I finished setting up the laptop that I had been working on throughout the weekend. Hard-drive is encrypted, VPN is set, and it is ready for deployment.
By the way, I did go to the Car Wash since my car needed one.
