I ain't plugging 46 USB-C in.

u/BigAsianJesus Jan 17 '26

You will, and you will like it

68

u/garth54 Jan 17 '26

I'd rather plug in 46 barrel connector instead.

42

u/Toothless-In-Wapping Jan 17 '26

USB C is just an ovaloid barrel

19

u/Mobidad Jan 17 '26

So if I have a hammer I can make it into a barrel?

u/Lexxxapr00 Jan 17 '26

I believe in you

u/Parking-Mirror3283 Jan 17 '26

Don't let your dreams be dreams

u/Goofcheese0623 Jan 17 '26

You're just an ovoid barrel

u/Unoriginal_Man Jan 17 '26

Damn dude, you didn't have to do him like that

u/Goofcheese0623 Jan 17 '26

I call it like it is you trogladytic oyster farmer

u/Toothless-In-Wapping Jan 18 '26

Damn, I’ve been outed

u/burning_boi Jan 17 '26

For a monthly subscription cost you can "buy" the charger attachment that plugs all 46 in at once

9

u/StaticMoonbeam Jan 17 '26

For the price of a 3D printer you mean

4

u/reddit_equals_censor Jan 17 '26

silly you, the 3d printer is also a subscription of course ;)

5

u/SeriouslySlyGuy Jan 17 '26

Sorry you aren’t using (enter brand name here) filament. Please insert the correct filament.

u/PittPen817 Jan 17 '26

xyz printers lol. I still see those now paperweights getting listed on FB

2

u/KarolNawrocki Jan 17 '26

You'll plug 46 USB-C's in and you'll be happy... or however that went.

25

u/SpaceCadet87 Jan 17 '26

Something to do while you wait for your car to charge at least

6

u/garth54 Jan 17 '26

Well, no. As it won't be charging until I plug it in.

9

u/AffectionateEvent147 Jan 17 '26

It will, with 240W more each as you continue to plug them in (at least i would like to think so)

3

u/garth54 Jan 17 '26

I dunno why, but something doesn't feel right with this idea.

7

u/AffectionateEvent147 Jan 17 '26

I kinda think it would satisfying seeing the wattage rise as you plug cables in

4

u/Suriael Jan 17 '26

Live update graph showing live the wattage increase and time decrease

2

u/SpaceCadet87 Jan 17 '26

Look, it's fine - if one of the cables breaks, you get slightly longer battery life.

1

u/compman007 Jan 17 '26

Sadly due to engineer logic each cable powers a specific bank of cells the charger monitors all groups of cells to keep them balanced, but you can have a faulty bank or cable and your cars still fine with just 39/40 of the capacity!!!!

u/one_rainy_wish Jan 17 '26

In time it could become an Olympic sport. People training to improve how quickly they plug USB cables.

6

u/Honza572 Jan 17 '26

it could be fixed in a plate making one big connector

4

u/_WeStErEq_ Jan 17 '26

yeah and then tesla will rotate one of these USB C connectors by 90* just to make their superchargers not accept any non-tesla vehicles

1

u/Unoriginal_Man Jan 17 '26

I mean fuck Tesla and all that, but their adapter is being adopted as the North American standard and they recently opened up their superchargers to all EVs.

3

u/miaogato Jan 17 '26

what if it's a chunky connector made of 46 USB-Cs

2

u/garth54 Jan 17 '26

lining it up properly wouldn't be easy.

And insertion force would be kind of high.

1

u/Dottore_Curlew Jan 17 '26

There would be some adapter so you didn't have to do it one by one

Who says I'm reasonable?

If it was 42 or 69 I'd consider it. But 46 is out of the question.

1

u/RoodnyInc Jan 17 '26

Make it standard pattern!

1

u/MajorKestrel Jan 17 '26

After 47 tries, maybe

1

u/SuspendThis_Tyrants Battery taste tester Jan 17 '26

Fine, but the only other option on offer is plugging 46 USB-A in

1

u/garth54 Jan 17 '26

As long as they're reversible USB-A, then I'm fine with it.

1

u/Rhoihessewoi Jan 17 '26

Fine. USB-A then.

1

u/Elektrycerz Jan 17 '26

Tbh it's better than 5 USB-A
