The LMcable is the charging cord that can plug into both iOS and Android devices, kind of like the technological counterpart of the One Ring.

Simply put, the people who own a mix of iOS and Android devices are going to benefit from this neat cable. It basically provides a convenient solution to the trouble of keeping two types of cords around to power up every gadget.

Touted as the "world's first iOS and Android common connector," it really is a pretty clever idea. Users will find a Lightning connection on one side, and when they flip it over, they'll have a micro USB, making it the perfect 2-in-1 cable.

The LMcable is capable of providing fast data transfer and delivering 2.4A fast charging output. It's also covered with stitched leather to prevent tangles and to keep it in tiptop shape, not to mention that the design gives a premium feel to it. On top of that, the tin-plated copper wires inside are "10 times more durable than the regular wires."

At the time of this writing, the Kickstarter project already has 2,450 backers and $83,239 AUD (approximately $60,105 USD), and the figures just keep on rising.

The only options left are to pledge about $21 AUD ($15 USD), $45 AUD ($32 USD) or $1,400 AUD ($1,010 USD). The highest price out of the bunch will provide users with 100 pieces of LMcable and the choice to choose from a combination of designs, including Vintage Brown with a gold metal plug, Sunlight White with a silver plug, Cowboy Blue with a silver plug or Moonlight Black with a dark gray plug.

It's also worth noting that The Verge got in touch with the people behind the cord. The creators told the news website that they don't have any plan to get an Apple certification for the product in question. In other words, it more or less comes with some risk in charging iOS devices.

That doesn't change the fact that the LMcable shows great promise in making everyone's lives a little bit simpler - when it comes to juicing up different devices with only one cable at hand, that is.
