OMG YES! My way Around that, I bought a USB-A Female to USB-C Male adapter this way I can plug my #Anker lightening 6 foot cable into it, and the adapter is plugged into a power strip I have that has a C port. Is it the same, no, close enough for now, for me yea lol.
What products are on your wishlist for Anker to make next?

Install Grammarly for Chrome as an extension, it doesn’t just do spell check, it checks to see if you’re using the proper Grammer as well!
There are very few descent cameras available that can film the interior of the vehicle, especially at night. and the few that do exist are usually crazy and expensive and made by completely unknown companies. In fact I’d even take a camera that just did interior, as that’s the most important for me.
Thanks!.
Bonus points:
Be the first to create a triple camera! Front, Rear and Interior for the truly paranoid. (but seriously make the interior cam/dual cam first as soon as possible)
Yes a dual camera would be good. Front and rear cams can miss important information
IPhone max cases, qi battery phone charger, car qi charger, and an Airplay 2 speaker
Definitely a few more varieties of wall chargers or even PD capable powerstrips. Also an Anker SSD would be an awsome thing to own.
A GPS tracker similar to Tile would be great!
Anker has many Qi chargers and a car Qi charger is going to be released soon.
my wish list from Anker would be these
Product 1
USB type C cables should evolve into magnetic USB type C cables for the safety of the mobile ports
LIghning cable should evolve into magnetic Lightning cables for the safety of the mobile ports
Product 2
large power banks should arrive with built-in fast wireless charging for wireless capable devices attached with 2 or 3/ 5V 2.1A USB type-A ports
Product 3
large power banks should arrive with built-in fast wireless charging for wireless capable devices attached with 2 or 3/ 5V 2.1A USB type-A ports and having 2 different inputs such as lightning input and USB type C input in case of an emergency or have an alternative way to charge it

Why you like the cable have magnetic feature?
Here’s a thought, As an adventurest/expeditionest we’re always searching for off the trail ideas. I’ve been having trouble with my Viair compressor as its seen better days… So would Anker be willing to create a portable air system which could be plugged into a power port or even a portable solar panel.
Along with this, why not have a power generator which uses the wind. A magnetic mount which looks like a small squirrel cage, could be placed on the vehicle while driving, the wind would be forced into the blades which turns a small generator leading to a small power bank or storage system, thus creating a recharging system or station.
Also, seeing how I’m going to be purchasing a new camera, I’ve always had issues with charging any camera I’ve ended up with. The camera companies give you a box which the rectangle shamed battery fits into for charging. I’m needed a new way to charge my batteries or a whole new battery for the Canon lineup.
Then there are ths issues of wanting to keep the photograpghs rolling without having to stop. Most cameras today, you need to shut off the camera, remove the battery, mount the battery int he charger and install an allready charged battery back intot he camera. I’d like to have a system when if the battery does get low, I can simply a portable/mounted charging station to the camera and keep going. Sort of like the motorized advance setup with the old 35mm cameras.
but would this mean that Anker would have to create these types of new charging setups for all brands of cameras… I suspect so and may not be worth it. However, it seems that Anker has isolated themselves by create products just for the iPhone or so I’ve noticed.

The biggest problem with magnetic connectors is the connection between the tips and the cord. They get extremely hot and some can even burn you if you touch them. Heat has and is still the biggest issue for magnetic connectors, even the old macbooks with the mag charge cables got hot…and heat at any charge point is detrimental

Thank’s for the hint.
Of course I have such an oldie. 
I will check this when I will use:
Only to “feed” my old IPOD and my old IPAD via ITUNES.
I could connect the IPOD and the IPAD via LINUX as well.
But sometimes it works, the other time failure.
Try & error, plug & pray! 
Oh! Also Anker HDMI, Display port cables!

This isn’t so much on my wish list, but it’s something I’d certainly buy if made available in the Anker brand:
Portable home phone with Bluetooth- so that I can use as a home phone and/or use it LIKE a home phone, but connected through my cell phone instead. That would be especially useful for times when I’m charging my home phone, or when I want to talk on my cell without having to huddle into the one spot in my house that gets cell reception, being all of 2’ square!
Now that I’ve thought about it a second, it’s is on my wish list!! Get to it @AnkerOfficial

(Panasonic makes one, so it can be done!)
by having magnetic charges would prevent damage to the port
much faster to connect to the device
and it will help you with carrying less cable by having one cable that supports multiple tips such as USB type C micro USB and lightning cable have provided a link to by amazon that shows what I am trying to explain
ive had a magnetic charging cable for 3 years and still working perfectly
I have provided a link to the cable that I have been using
That’s great you havnt had any problems,but there have been numerous complaints and issues with people using those types of chargers. As I mentioned before, heat build up being the biggest complaint followed by slower charging speeds. You want this in USB-C? Then it must have a 56k ohm pull up resistor as to not draw more power than it should so it doesn’t damage your phone and this also adds to the heat issue.
