Are any of you having issues with the female end being too tight? The cord I bought has this problem - not sure if I should return or exchange.

Hey D., I don't think I've needed to use it yet! I bought it last Summer to extend/hardwire some photographic lights, but haven't needed to. Sorry I couldn't help.

I have had the same issue w/ some Bose 20i headphones. The male it won't fit completely in the female end. I'm not sure if it's defective or it's just too small.

I didnt have any problems with the cord (besides the fact that the design doesnt accomodate being able to plug into an iphone case)

I had similar issues myself. I just messed with the cord a whole and it started back working. This was a waste of my money.

So sorry, I wish I could help, but I didn't have that issue. Mine stayed on very snug. It didn't help much, but it did stay on tightly...under my tights and over top of them as well sometimes.

I just checked mine and there seems to be a tiny bit of stretch. Given the price and how well they work, I would give them a whirl. Good luck.

My cord broke too. I need to send mine back to the seller. If you were to get a replacement cord it would only break again.

It could be that where is connect to could possibly be loose. I have not had that problem. But its said to be after much movement the cable tips could go bad

I have not had any problems with mine. But maybe you are twisting it the wrong way when you plug it in.

Did you pull the cord hard enough? The first one I had we had to pull the cord really hard. I wound up exchanging it for another. The new one I received was much easier to pull.

mine is very snug and perfect for my use...I do not know why yours is off and perhaps you should exchange it for one that is not defective

The only suggestion is to find a plug end that fits and give it a try. The cord I have is very short and plugs into the wall outlet. The only other option is to find a vendor online or on Amazon and contact them. I just looked at my cable and it's not marked at all. I will say this, if you are able to charge it, keep your fingers away from the metal strips on the side. Yep you guessed it and it hurt like heck and it didn't even get the full dose as I released it as soon as I felt the jolt. It ached for a good 3 hours afterwards so I wouldn't and don't want to know what a full dose would feel like. good luck The only suggestion is to find a plug end that fits and give it a try.

I had the same problem it has a lot of tension on it. I had to loosen everything that was connected to this wire before it was able to be fit into it's position. If you study it long enough you will see what to do.

I dont know why you are having that problem, i had no such issue. Once i plugged it in using the cord that i received with it, it picked up just fine and i was able to open it. My advice woukld be to contact the seller and explain the issue you are having.

I put the male side of the cord though one of the holes that has the second small hole on each side and kind of "clipped" it there. If it wouldn't stay then I would hold that end of the cord there and just start winding it around. Hope that helps.

I had the same problem and have not found a good solution yet. I even tried using a knife to narrow the 3.5 mm plug with no luck. This is a big drawback to the Maxboost. Please let me know if you find a good solution.

I am having the same issue. The cable seems to have a kink in it. I am going to splice the wire or cut it & then reconnect it with the two freshly cut ends. Don't know if the sale just the cable

I just tried mine for the first time and had a miserable experience. I hardly think these wires are "extra short," I feel like all I have is the extension cord, but what do I know? I just got them. I tucked the cord beneath the goggle strap just above the ear and still had cord everywhere. The buds didn't stay in (yes, I used petroleum jelly as recommended). What am I doing wrong?
