Switch Hitter USB Connector
There is a new kid on the block when it comes to USB connectors, it is “The Flipper.” The concept is so incredibly simply you will laugh when you see it. The Flipper is a USB connector that will make correct contact with the host USB port regardless of how you insert it.
Granted it is not that hard to figure out which side is up and down…and I will admit [openly] that if you have trouble with that – then you are an idiot.
So if you are having trouble here is a tip: Seam is the down side, seamless is the up side.
So The Flipper will help the idiots who can’t figure heads from tails.
I do say, there was a design flaw in the first place with having an up and down position, it should have been universal and hopefully The Flipper will catch on and thus change USB forever…or at least until USB 3.0 takes over.
