USB-C to USB-C Cable 2-Pack vs Cable 100W USB-C to USB-C 2.0 Charge & Sync Cable: which is safer?
These two grade almost identically. Pick on price and preference; neither has a PFAS edge.

Where these two actually differ
- We flag Copper conductor corrosion and oxidation, Thermal degradation of PVC jacket and Microplastic shedding from jacket wear on the Anker and not on the Mophie.
- We flag Jacket material leaching (PVC/TPE), Connector contact degradation and Microplastics and end-of-life breakdown on the Mophie and not on the Anker.
- The Anker is PVC outer jacket, copper conductors, standard connectors where the Mophie is PVC or TPE jacket, copper/aluminum conductors, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- These two are level, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.
Both products run through the same public rubric, which covers materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
