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 Mous.
  • We flag Adhesives and coatings (unverified composition) and Colorants and dyes in aramid weave or surface treatment on the Mous and not on the Anker.
  • The Anker is PVC outer jacket, copper conductors, standard connectors where the Mous is Aramid fiber (Kevlar-type synthetic polymer), 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 →
