For decades now, iPhones and
Android phones have been using different cables to charge batteries. Apple requires the Lightning cable and one
needs a micro USB cable for an Android device. But now there’s a single cable that
connects to both.

The LMcable, which is picking up significant traction on
Kickstarter, works in Lightning and micro USB ports by having a reversible male
end with two differently designed sides.
One side of it connects with the
Lightning port’s pins, while the opposite side connects with the micro USB
port’s pins. At the other end of the cable is a standard USB male connector.
While the LMcable can physically connect to
other devices with those ports, the cable cannot transfer data. The cable only
has the ability to charge different devices, so you won’t want to throw away
all your USB to micro USB cables.
LMcable doesn’t look like a standard cable; it is wrapped in leather and
has a brass buckle to keep it neat for when you want to coil it. It comes in
four colors — white, brown, black and blue.
It will soon hit the market, and it is
expected that the price of it may be around $21.
