[ADVICE NEEDED] Best way to color-code cords so it's easy to grab the one you need quickly?
Like all of us, I have a lot of cords to charge various devices. And of course, most of the cords are black. I had the bright idea to color-code the cords so it would be easy to grab the right one. For me, I did blue/USB-C. yellow/micro-USB. red/Garmin, etc etc... The idea is, you can quickly ID the cord without having to pick it up and examine the end... I've tried a couple different ways to mark the cords, but nothing has quite worked yet. First I tried cutting small strips of colored duct tape and using that as a little flag. It worked at first, but then sometimes the tape would fall off and leave behind a sticky residue. Then I tried small stickers. Basically these small round stickers I'd gotten off amazon. That worked at first, but they tended to fall off because they are not super sticky, and the cords don't provide a clear surface to put them on. I'm thinking maybe ... nail polish or paint? Anyone have bright ideas? submitted by /u/sozh [link] [comments]
