Hello 👋 !

While trying out this project we found out that USB C 2.0 cables with Power Delivery only work well.

I'm opening this issue because we have read the warning about SS cables, and we thought ours was but it wasn't 😂 We scratched our head until we understood that this cable had the required CC pins for high power charging. Those cables are a bit less expensive than the real USB 3.0 type C cables.

Thanks for the awesome tool ! ❤️

It's not just the CC pins. The reboot stuff will work with any compliant USB cable (which should have the CC pin), but the serial port requires the SBU1/2 pins. Those are typically only present on SS cables.
