Can I charge the iPad Pro (2018) with the tizi flip USB-C cable?
Yes, the tizi flip USB-C is fully compatible with the iPad Pro (2018).
Is this cable suitable for recovering Macs with M1 chips?
For the recovery of Apple’s M1 Macs, it is necessary to use a cable without Thunderbolt functionality. The tizi flip USB-C | USB-C (2m, black) is compatible for this purpose.
The tizi flip PRO (100W) has Thunderbolt functionality and is therefore not suitable for the recovery of M1 Macs.

Charging with the tizi Schlitzohr
The tizi Schlitzohr is not suitable for quick charging via USB-C Power Delivery, as it works using a USB-A connector. It is possible to charge USB-C devices with the tizi Schlitzohr, but in this case, USB Standard protocol is used and the device will charge at a maximum of around 12W.

Why should I purchase tizi cables? There are also very cheap (China) cables on marketplaces like Amazon or eBay?
Cheap cables can only be produced by saving on the copper content in the cable. The copper content of these cheap China cables is therefore usually very low. Our test purchases revealed a sometimes devastating picture: at high charging performance, this can lead to heating of the cable and, in the worst case, to fire. It is therefore strongly advised not to save money when buying cables. For little money you always get little copper.
All tizi cables are characterized by a guaranteed high copper content, solid workmanship and official certifications such as Mfi from Apple.
I own a MacBook Air that is charged with USB-C and only with 30 watts. Can I also use a tizi USB-C power adapter that provides more watts?
The answer is clear: yes. USB-C devices use the PD, Power Delivery standard for charging. Here, the device, such as the MacBook Air, asks the tizi power adapter how many watts the tizi power adapter could provide at most. Then the charging controller starts in the MacBook Air and actively draws exactly the power it needs to charge. If, for example, only 30 watts are needed, the MacBook Air only draws 30 watts. A more powerful tizi power adapter can therefore never harm a USB-C device. The device itself decides on the power consumption.
What is USB-C? What do I need USB-C for?
USB-C is a new connector type, which largely replaces the previous square USB-A connector.
The advantages of USB-C:
- The USB-C connector is reversible, there is no longer a top and bottom
- With USB-C you can charge much faster than with old USB-A connectors
- USB-C enables faster data communication
- The number of different USB connector types is significantly reduced
Reversible:
The USB-C connector is flat and rounded on the sides. It remains largely symmetrical and can be inserted in both directions. With old USB connectors, such as USB-A or Micro USB, a special reversible cable like a tizi flip cable had to be used to enable reversible insertion. With USB-C, this is part of the technology. The connector can be inserted in both directions and thus protects both the connector and the socket from damage due to incorrect insertion. And it is of course much more practical.Faster charging:
USB-C generally enables faster charging than standard USB, but fast charging must be supported by both the end device and the power supply. The so-called USB-C Power Delivery or USB-C PD is used to charge much faster. With the previous standard USB-A, 12 watts were usually charged, with USB-C PD charging with 5W to 100W is possible. This also makes it possible to charge computers such as the Apple MacBook and other powerful devices via USB-C.Note: Due to the higher performance with USB-C PD, there is also a greater potential danger to connected devices. Therefore, especially with USB-C Power Delivery power supplies, it is important to use only quality products such as tizi power supplies.
Faster data communication
Generally, a USB-C connector also supports faster data transfer, but this depends on both the devices used and the connector and the cable. Fastest speeds of up to 20 Gbit/s can be achieved with compatible devices with USB 3.2 Gen2x2 and via corresponding USB-C connectors and cables.Only one connector for everything
The previous USB connector has various designs:- USB-A Male and Female
- USB-B
- Micro-USB A
- Micro USB-B
- USB Mini-B
- USB 3.0 A
- USB 3.0 B
- etc.
