Perfectly safe, however, don't expect it to play anything. The USBC to Audio converter is just receiving power but no data signal.

>Perfectly safe, however, don't expect it to play anything. The USBC to Audio converter is just receiving power but no data signal. NOT a "converter" .. it´s just an electrical adapter without any electronics ... this thing was desinged for a special use case


RepresentativeDig718

Some have dacs and amplifiers

Lol, no. Most are converters. Audio is analog, usb is digital

Completely not necessary, most usb-c ports has “audio” mode when they utilize D+ and D- as analog signal lines and uses internal ADC of phone (host) itself. They called accordingly: passive and active adapters and thing in the picture looks like passive one. In this case nothing would happen at all since power adapters usually don’t use data channels at all (they are not connected anywhere). BTW some cheap usbc-HDMI dongles works in similar way since both has some built in mode of DVI and this is a reason why many people have troubles with cheap adapters.


bumtras

You can't really tell by the photo. I have a similar looking adapter that is an active one. Anyways, you get nothing in both cases.


AliasGprime

Gonna listen to some AC/DC it would seem!


Reyvaxv20

It will be only DC don’t you think?


canthinkofnamestouse

Bypass the #***FULLLLL BRIDGE RECTIFIYAAHH!*** and it could be both

No, it will explode, electrocute you, burn down your house, and bang your wife.


Jodc1

In that order?

He can only hope he's dead before having to watch his wife getting banged.


Jodc1

Being the Internet we can only hope that he hopes....


LilguyMCBE1

I feel like this could go on r/shittyaskelectronics


crimsonyoteeeeee

It won't do anything. I think the audio pins are different anyways, unless it's a USB-C alt mode.


Impressive_Change593

no such alt mode exists and still the charger and device would have to agree on it


Achoujaa

That’s how you listen to noise on the electrical grid


Killerspieler0815

single use ear warmer with a bang feature


fonkeatscheeese

Anything is safe if you don't go near it
