I know there are ve.direct to ve.direct angled connection cables, but is there one with the USB on the other end? From what I can find, there are no male to female ve.direct cables so I would need to USB to ve.direct with an angled end. -Bill

Is there VE.Direct to USB with angled ve.direct end?
@TTbb, if you check the connector dimensions on this, it's a very long way from being a VE.Direct adaptor.
Justin are you really assuming i would go and post some random connector that just kind of looked like it might be right? lol
@TTbb, not assuming, I just know the dimensions of a VE.Direct cable and the posted dimensions on the listing don't match. Posted listing for the connector says its (female side) dimensions are 8.5mm x 7mm x 3.5mm; a VE.Direct connector (female side) is 8.33mm x 4.76mm x 3.26mm.
Have you personally used this and know it to be effective? beta.ivc.no is hardly an authoritative source on Victron equipment, and certainly isn't Victron-approved, so I just question the veracity of this design, whether or not the plug actually fits, and whether the the data transmitted through non-approved wiring remains accurate and dependable. If you personally know that it works because you've done it, that's one thing, but if you're just taking an article from a random internet source and posting it as a viable solution to a problem, it's another... thus my question.
Thanks @Daniël Boekel (Victron Energy Staff) and @TTbb, I will update my thinking to reflect this! Always happy to learn something new :)
