Pixel 7 requires a whole new charging infrastructure

[dckc]

It kept saying "charging slowly or not at all". I discovered it needs a new charging standard with usb-c to usb-c cables, so all the fast chargers and magnetic cables I had are no good.

Car charging

I wonder if my charge car charging equipment suffices:

• IMDEN Bluetooth 5.0 FM Transmitter for Car

The Pixel 7 says charging but not charging fast. But it doesn't say that it's charging slowly or not at all yet.

I got a USB-C adapter for a recent road trip, but the rental car we used had a USB-C port, so I didn't get to test it:

• LISEN 54W Car Phone Charger USB C, Cigarette Lighter Adapter

Removing Magnetic Cable Tips

Getting it out of my phone it was difficult. A pen did work but the actual pry tool would be good to have. Ah... now I see that I have it stored in a tub with batteries.

Also my standard kit doesn't seem to include a small screwdriver.
