Mini USB cable charging problem
Discussion
I bought a Nextbase DAB radio adaptor for my car, works pretty well to be fair.
But I really want to move it, but need a longer charging cable.
It says is 5V, so I bought a long cable, but nothing happens-no charge. tried a few other cables at home, 1 out 4 worked.
My question is, what do I need to look for when buying a longer USB charging cable? To be honest, i thought they were all the same!

There must be something more technical to it, but perhaps thickness is a gauge.
I bought a cheapo USB extender cable to allow my mobile broadband dongle to hang outside the double-glazing where it has more chance of getting a signal, and it didn't work. Then I bought a better one, which at the same time as being retail packaged was also noticeably thicker, and it works perfectly well.
