Slowly transitioning all my tech to USB C standard. Ideally I want every thing to charge USB C to USB C. A lot of USB C wireless headphones can only charge USB A to USB C. Does anyone know of headphones that can charge USB C to C?

Review/Comparison between Choetech USB Car chargers QC3 USB (Tc002) & USB C (c0051)
(Note this is tested on HTC 10 with a choetech USB C cable)
USB QC 3 charger (Model tc002)
This is a nice little charger, small form and built well. It has a little led in the middle to let you know it has power/is charging. It also comes with usb c cable which is a nice addition.
It has 2 ports, one with a blue strip around it to let you know it’s the “main” QC 3 port. This port gives off 9.1v with 0.83a. The phone recognised this as QC3 and displayed the “charging rapidly” sign.
The 2nd port has no strip around it. It gives off 5v and 1.9a, so will charge slightly slower but still for an in charge charger will charge most phones well.
USB C QC 3 charger (Model c0051)
This is a nice little charger like the above, very similar build wise the only difference being the ports themselves. Please note no cable was provided with this charger. The led also changes from blue to green when charging.
It has 2 ports, 1 usb c and 1 normal USB (USB A). The normal usb port also looks reversible which is a nice added feature. The usb C port requires a USB C to USB C cable.
The normal USB port gives off 8.8v and 1.5a. The phone did recognize this as QC3 and displayed the “charging rapidly” sign.
The usb c port I was unable to read due to not having the right connector to read volts and amps, so I used an inbuilt amp to read the charging speed (Ampere). This read as 1800mA which as comparison is around the same as the official HTC charger that came with my HTC 10. The phone however did not display the “charging rapidly” sign
Conclusions
Both are very good chargers and both available at a reasonable price. If I were to pick one I would pick the 1st USB QC 3 charger (tc002) simply because I feel the double usb a ports give you more options when charging
I would like to be able to plug a USB cable into my pixel xl on my car and be able to charge the phone and play music.
My idea was to use a USB c hub with pd passthrough power. Plug in a DAC to the hub and a USB c charging cable to a cigarette USB c fast charger.
There are lots available for the Macbooks but will they work with the pixel? Does the pixel allow other devices whilst receiving power?
Hey mate did you find anything like this? I'm after something similar for my 6p to use in my car

It sounds like you need a kernel capable of 'USB OTG plus Charge'. I have only seen this on Nexus devices. Look in your favorite kernel's forum thread and see if there is support.
Pretty sure this is feasible, though I'm not sure if Android 7 has anything that could pose a restriction.

Does anyone know if you can host a device over usb and charge at the same time? I wasn't sure if USB C would factor into this or not.
Just bought usb type c to jack cable and i can't get it work any help., What should i do
Don't believe these support USB-C audio.
Yep, no audio via usb-c support.
I am struggling to find a USB C male to USB C female extension cord for my charger.
Will using a USB C male to USB female adapter like this still have super fast charging capabilities with a different charging cable?
