Tame your MacBook charging cables with this ingenious and beautiful wrap

Posted on by

We’ve all been the victims of tangled cables, not just at our desks but especially in our bags. Not only does the mess of jumbled wires make us lose time when we need to quickly plug in our devices, we also lose items in our bags simply because this clutter gets in our way. Cable management solutions exist for many desks, but people on the go are often left at the mercy of hastily cobbled-up bands, ties, and whatnot, none of which are effective, let alone elegant products. You don’t need an elaborate and complicated mechanism to keep charging cables in check, as this innovative wrap for MacBook chargers proves, providing an easy and quick way to tame those unruly wires while looking good at the same time.

Laptop charging cables are a necessary evil for us to be able to work these days. But even the minimalist designs of the MacBook power adapter still fall prey to the problem of getting tangled around not only itself, but everything else in your bag. This costs you time and peace of mind whenever you need to take it out, especially when in a hurry.

TAIM is a cable management solution that looks so simple that you might wonder why it didn’t already exist. It attaches snugly around a MacBook charger and provides a way to let you wrap the cable around the block, and then secure the cable so that it never gets loose until you actually need it. It’s efficient and fast, so you spend less time managing cables and more time actually getting stuff done. Whether you’re at the office about to head home, at home about to rush out the door, or enjoying a freshly brewed cup of coffee while hammering away at that report, TAIM is the perfect solution to save time and reduce frustration.

The ingenuity of TAIM comes from a robust hook and loop attachment that lets you quickly fasten or unfasten the wrap; no need to fiddle with buttons or complicated mechanisms. A machined metal “grab tab” with a beautiful satin bronze finish also makes it easy to see or even just feel the end of the wrap so that you can quickly release the elastic retention band in a flash. Simply pull the tab and let the cable drop free, ready to plug into your MacBook for a quick charge.

Best of all, TAIM is made with high-grade materials that not only look and feel good, it will last you a long time. Durable elastic is used to wrap around the charging block and the captured cables, while custom Merino wool felt adds a luxurious texture to the product, a fitting quality for a design made to match Apple’s high-quality products. Made specifically for single-port USB-C Apple MacBook power adapters, TAIM frees you from the stress of dealing with unruly cables and lost time, providing a design that not only works well but looks striking to boot. Stand out of the crowd, and start crafting your image today with TAIM by BAIR.

This innovative 6-in-1 cable is the one charging and data cable to rule them all

Posted on by

It’s easy to underestimate how much time we lose each day looking for the things we need, whether it’s our glasses, writing instruments, or charging cables. All those little pockets of time add up, costing us precious moments and making us miss important opportunities. Making matters worse is how we seem to need two or more cables for different devices that use different technologies, and we end up losing even more time trying to untangle them from each other. You’d think that at this point in time, someone would have thought of a better solution that meets all of those needs. Fortunately, someone finally did, and now you can enjoy a hassle-free digital life with a single cable that not only replaces six cables but can also hang nicely on your keychain.

Although it would seem that our world is slowly moving towards a universal USB-C connector, it’s moving very slowly to the point that we now have to contend with four different connectors rather than just three. That’s not even considering how there are different kinds of USB standards with different charging and data transfer speeds, and you’re pretty much cornered to bring a matching cable for each of your devices. Admittedly, there have been attempts to have a single cable that can “switch heads” to fit any device, but their implementations leave plenty to be desired.

Whether it’s a MacBook that uses USB-C, an iPhone with Lightning, or a Kindle with Micro-USB, Zeus-X Go has it all.

With Zeus-X Go Keychain, carry the right cable for every device, always.

Enter the Zeus-X Go Ultra, which, like its namesake, is a god among charging cables. Its innovative swiveling and rotating mechanism lets you easily change the connector type to mix and match what you need, whether it’s USB-C, Apple Lightning, or old-school micro-USB. It practically replaces six cables of different combinations, so you need to bring only one and be confident that you can connect any of your devices to any charger or computer in a snap. You can even connect one phone to another to share your phone’s battery in an emergency.

Most adapters obstruct your hand or the charging port.

Most 2-in-1 Lightning/Micro Adapters tend to be loose or even damage your charging port.

What makes the Zeus-X Go Ultra different from the hydra-like designs of the past is that the adapters don’t take up more space than normal cables, making sure they can fit even in the narrowest of charging ports without connectors dangling off to the side. At the same time, the adapters lock securely in place, so you don’t have to worry about loose connections and falling devices.

180° swivel mechanism & 360° rotatable.

The Zeus-X Go Ultra isn’t just a 6-in-1 cable, though. It’s also the fastest 6-in-1 cable, delivering 5 times faster charging speeds thanks to its 240W Power Delivery (PD) capability. That means it can charge a 16-inch MacBook Pro to 50% in just 30 minutes and support some of the fastest chargers in the mobile market to date. Even better, its support for the USB 3.1 Gen 2 standard not only means fast data transfer speeds of up to 10Gbps, it also means that you can use this same cable to connect a laptop, a tablet, or a phone to a USB-C monitor.

The Zeus-X Go Ultra doesn’t skimp on aesthetics and design quality, either, with a zinc alloy construction that ensures the longevity of the adapters while also giving it a stylish, futuristic appearance. The two ends clip together with magnets, so you can easily hang one from your keychain and never worry about forgetting or misplacing your charging cable again. And for those with longer needs, there are options that can reach up to 10ft! Never lose time again looking for the right cable for your device with the Zeus-X Go Ultra, the single cable solution you’ll ever need.

Look, I have the Zus Kevlar MFi Certified Lightning Cable, and I think it’s awesome. I even did a review. And while today’s deal isn’t a deal in the sense that you won’t save anything from the MSRP of $19, if you get yourself one through the link at the bottom, you’ll be supporting this site in the process.

Stop re-upping on low quality charging cables that tear after just a few months. The ZUS Cable can bend over 15,000 times, 50% more than the nearest competitor, and is covered by a lifetime warranty. That’s how confident ZUS is in their cables. These cables are built with the same aramid fiber technology used in aerospace and military applications so normal wear and tear just won’t affect them.

– Cables are tangle-free thanks to the nylon braiding
– Each cable comes w/ a complimentary velcro tie to keep the cable further organized
– 90 degree plug provides a slim fit in narrow spaces
– MFi Certification means your iPhone is perfectly safe to charge

This is legitimately a great cable. It’s tough as nails and feels premium. At $19, which is cheaper than Apple’s own charging cable, it’s a no-brainer.
