    That’s what USB-A to USB-C cables are for. Most of those outlets don’t provide any fast charging anyway.

      Wait. I thought they were saying it’s annoying that there are now USB-C outlets replacing USB-A, which would be a waste. They actually want USB-C outlets?! I’d guess at least half of all USB-C cables are USB-A to USB-C. There’s absolutely no reason to switch from A-outlets.

        I still run across them that charge at 1.0 speeds. I’m pretty sure if my phone isn’t turned off they can’t actually keep my phone from dying at idle.

        So you plug an A to C cable into them (or hang an A to C dongle off the end of your usual cable) and charge from them.
