Everyone, but the environment wins. Once I upgrade my phone and Airpods, I will have to throw out my pack of perfectly working lightning cables.

I'm sure there are more than a few people that would end up throwing out their perfectly functional accessories, only for the convenience of carrying less cables.



Why don’t you donate them to a thrift store or educational charity? Are there no non-profits who refurbish and reuse electronics in your community?


I don't want to burn fuel trying to find a place to accept used 5 year old Airpod Pros with yellow earbud plastic.

I don't want to ship another cable across the Pacific Ocean from China so I can have a cable that works on my devices.

I want to keep using them until they don't work and I can't repair them any more.
