Tiny USB C Gadgets

Here are four cool portable USB devices that are also very useful. I will provide a brief overview of each. If you have any devices to add, please let me know. I am always looking for cool little USB gadgets like these. However, they must be of a different function (IE. Not a SSD, Crypto wallet, DAC or Password wallet).

The first on the list is the Ledger Nano.


 This tiny device is used as a hardware crypto wallet to store bitcoin, litecoin, ethereum and other crypto currencies.

Next on the list we have the Sabrent Rocket Nano SSD.

One of the smallest USB-C NVME SSD's I have ever seen. It's fast, and feels solid in the hand, well built and feels heavy.

Then we have the Mooltipass Mini.


 Never trust your passwords to online cloud solutions, they could get hacked at any moment. Saving them on your desktop or phone is also not a good idea in case the device is infected with malware. One of the best solutions is to use a offline digital encrypted password device such as the Mooltipass Mini. You use a smart card and pin to access your credentials.

Finaly the HiBy FC1

Now many of you may not know this, but the headphone controller on your phone/laptop/desktop is usually of the cheapest quality. A tiny USB C Digital to Analog Converter (DAC) device like this HiBy or Earmen will sound (results vary) leaps and bounds better than the headphone port built into your device, even with regular headphones (non Hi-Res headphones). So imagine with high-res headphones!

There are other devices I did not cover, such as the Corral AI Edge TPU shown below. If you know of other cool or useful mini USB C devices, please comment and let me know.
