USB Type C to Micro B, need help

[Steve.604]

Just picked up a Pixel XL, absolutely love the phone but I'm having a problem.

 

I'm a mechanic and have a couple of cameras I plug into my phone, a borescope and a thermal camera that both attach via Micro b usb,

 

I've bought 2 different adapters from Micro B to type C, both claimed to transfer data and charge, the Pixel won't pick up the cameras when using the adapters

 

I've seen some OTG hubs for type C with micro USB ports but looks like they are mostly for charging not data transfer.

 

I'm currently pulling a Kevin Gates and rocking 2 phones, I would like to sell my old phone, pair it down to 1

Already tried a 5 or 6 year old Samsung Galaxy (wow we've come a long way), no OTG capabilities, won't pick up the cameras either.

 

Can anyone recommend something they know works? Can I get some kind of dongle, or is my best bet to pick up a cheap tablet or phone to leave at work?

Have you tried these two? They both have data transfer numbers.

I'd want a separate phone at work though just to make sure I didn't screw up my daily.

Not those exact ones, both are fairly similar to what I have minus the cable,

Should have mentioned, when I hook to my PC the adapters work fine, PC can see the phone, transfer files etc.

 

Its only when the cameras are hooked to it I get nothing. I think it's because of the OTG, I know it's different but not sure how.
