Any Idea what type of charging port this is, I thought it was ye old Mini B, but its too thick. We’re having a clearout and found our old Camcorder, the model is a Luminox LXDV750 12.0 MEGA MAX, can anyone help me find this port?

    “USBC will replace everything!” but then they made a dozen different unnamed USBC specs that not every cable supports

      Yeah but the port supports the specs. I’d rather 5 usbc ports that can do all the things than 5 random plugs with their own cables that (also) don’t support the specs of each individual plug.

        Not necessarily! There’s multiple types of USBC ports unfortunately. It’s a damn mess.

          Okay. Provide a new port then. In the interim can I suggest a plug of some sort to put into your butt?

                I wouldn’t call it weird, I work in an industry that has to deal with it almost daily lol

                Its nice that it’s one plug size but it’s frustrating that they had the opportunity to truly standardize with it and we wound up with this. Same thing happened with HDMI but this has even jankier results.

                I’ll also give it credit that laptop docks are 1 cable but my new work laptop requires the power cord for maximum power so it’s less exciting now
