    It allows you hook up a USB device to your tablet. USB memory stick, USB mobile broadband modem, USB joypad etc.

    I would have only one of those above, but could i use it for a usb charger in a cigarette lighter, it says it needs a cable, would this do?

    No, you need male USB to micro USB.

    Is this one suitable or are they available in Dealz, but either would suit as how long is delivery from there?

    Still in stock here?

    Must be the timer that it has on the site as it runs down from 4hrs & probably resets itself.

    Just got one. Can't really lose out at that price. You don't think there'll be customs or the like?

    Not a hope of customs on something so small

    Can you hook this thing up to a printer? And like... you know... get a printer app on Android... and print an image directly? Or am I living in a technological fantasy land?

    I'm pretty sure printing is possible from an Android device. Not sure what the story with drivers are but there seems to be apps and the like to facilitate that.

    The most realistic way to do it is wirelessly though.

    Price has gobe up. Paid EUR 1.22 for mine (worth it though!)

    Thanks OP

    This is the RRP for most Chinese / Hong Kong retailers. For those that missed out, you can still pick it up a lot of places for that price, e.g. here for €0.72.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 813 ✭✭✭IrishStuff09


    Just wondering if anyone has actually got theirs yet..I know it's only 75c but, you know :pac:

    Still waiting on mine, but I'm going to wait until a month or so has passed before worrying.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,227 ✭✭✭Sam Mac


    Still waiting on mine too. Not too worried - it was only 75c and I'm in no rush to get it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,227 ✭✭✭Sam Mac


    Received mine just there in the post. Works great!

    Thanks OP

    mine also came today. My tablet doesn't look to picking it up though. I've tried a second one and still the same.

    what tablets are you using?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,873 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    Bought 3 and two are fine, one is loose when connected so isn't as stable as the other two.

    LG G-Pad Google play version. I haven't rooted it yet but I'd say I'll need to to get this to work. I have plex running on it so I'm not that worried.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 265 ✭✭innocent_lover


    I will say we need a app like nexus media importer for this cable to work, but is there any free app available in play store?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,451 ✭✭✭blastman


    Generally you need to root your device or pay for an app to use these (with Android, anyway).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,873 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    €3 seems a fair price if that app would work.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,734 ✭✭✭J_E


    My cable and mouse both arrived this morning! Cable working fine with an Xbox controller out of the box on my Moto G 4.4, will try USB later.
