So far using ugreen products(cables, chargers, etc). Good stuff and affordable. Comparable if not better than original. My go to brand. Other brands: usams, mdodo, dodocool.
Of course Anker, Aukey, Tronsmart if you got extra budget.

good recommendations!

at/inside that burnt part is a resistor . to limit current flow.
my guess is poor quality . overheat, and burn/melt.
so you can see these cables are a FIRE risk.

my xiaomi c cable die on me. no charging . must be poor quality too.

get a better branded cable like UGREEN.


your ldnio is also a suspect
MY guess is your ldnio is faulty ..its not regulating the current ...and pumping a very high current. the cable cant handle this and burnt out.

from google...

I threw away my LDNIO charger once i saw that article. Lulz, i always charge with the original charger that came with the gadget, third party chargers can provide higher charging speed but not necessarily better quality.

That said, inferior quality power strips might cause problems too.

lucky didn't buy, b4 that searching to buy

buy original, buy cheaper cable is most dangerous
