Purchase extra cord?

Any recommendations on where I should buy an extra charger cord for my V? Does it matter...are they all pretty much the same whether OEM or off brand? TIA!
 
Any will do. I got a super cheap one off eBay as an extra to use with my computer so I don't have to swap the original one out of the wall charger.

How about any of the retractable cables? I like that concept...

Does it matter if a cable is advertised for a specific phone or brand that isn't ours? All the micro cables look the same...but what do I know? LOL

I would think that as long as the receptacle fits snug and the voltage output is correct, then it's all good.

USB Cables

Look under the "USB 2.0 Cables - Regular Type" section.

This is just the cable. They also have the USB Car Adapters and probably Home Outlet Adapters to plug your home ac into usb voltage. Could not find those but you got one with your Optimus and they will be sold somewhere.
 
ebay. I got 2 for $2. My kids use the same ones for their phones so one's in the kitchen and everyone has one in their own room.

I've used a retractable cable for my iPod and at first I liked it, but the retractable nature requires the cord to be much flimsier than a standard cord, so after a while the wires inside get bent back and forth with use resulting in spotty connections. Any convenience ends up being nullified I think.
