Lately i have had 3 usb c cables burnt at the tip.

1st cable - cable that came with xiaomi hair clippers. Connected to ldnio socket hub but no device connected.

2nd cable - cable from daiso. Connected to same ldnio socket hub but no device connected.

3rd cable - cable from daiso. Connected to ldnio charger (diff from the above) and was charging my vape overnight.

What could be the problem?

Easy question. The constant factor are your LDNIO products. Get rid of it.

dont you know that USD C transfers more power, thus faster charging?

Change the charger.

I have been using a lot of Daiso Cable. So far no issue on burning / melting like yours.
