Hello! Got my PT2 earlier this week but have already misplaced the charging dongle and the backup charging dongle I ordered was delayed / out of stock. If there’s anyone nearby, I’d greatly appreciate borrowing a charging dongle overnight so I can keep my PT2 running until I find mine or my backup arrives. I’m in the Woodstock area. Thx! ---

Hi, why don’t you just buy one on Amazon for cheap money? There is a good amount of choices in terms of lenght, colour and build quality available on Amazon at least here in Germany. ---

Compatible with the new Pebble Time 2? I thought the only ones available on Amazon were compatible with the original Pebble Time. Off to check… ---

Well I am using the original cable that came with the first Pebble and it works like it should, so why not giving it a try? ---

I tried a pebble cable I had, but it’s not charging my PT2. Just ordered another that will come in two days. Hopefully that one will work 🤞 ---

Everything Pebble Time and newer will work with the PT2. Pebble Classic and Steel have their own chargers ---

I once forgot my charging cable for my PT while on a trip. I stripped an old USB cable to the bare red and black wire and used two laundry pinches to keep the wires pressed to the contact points on the watch. worked like a charme. Don’t recall though what was plus or minus 😉 ---

Outer magnets are minus, inner pins are plus. Doesn’t matter which one of the two, charging is symmetrical ---

Received the new cable I ordered yesterday, and it worked perfectly. The old aftermarket cable was a bit spotty with my old PT, so I think the pins were just too short. Thanks for the help with this!
