Cable Conundrum

My mother managed to somehow break her charging cable for her smart watch. Because these cables aren’t usually long enough and most plug sockets are nearer to the floor rather than at table height, things that charging are usually left on the floor which becomes a bit inconvenient if you’re sitting down in the space at the same time and inadvertently step on the cables. So the wire was OK apart from the connection between the metallic points. The smartwatch wasn’t a branded one so we had to order it direct from the retailer, but when it arrived it didn’t conduct any electricity into the watch. The metallic connectors were the same size and distance, but it was the magnetic clamps that were slightly smaller which didn’t provide us with any action. Looking at the reviews, a lot of people had the same problem, and when I requested a refund the seller didn’t even bother asking for it back.
