Magnetic Lightning to USB Cable for iPad

What is the best brand magnetic Lightning to USB cable to buy? I have a Gen 2 iPad Pro and plug/unplug the charger several times daily (every day) and just want to save wear and tear on the charge port connection. Thanks in advance.

iPad Pro, iPadOS 13

.... magnetic charge cables have a little dongle that plugs into the charge port. The charge cable attaches via a rare earth magnet, so no more “plugging” into the charge port on the device. The more expensive ones will also transfer data. If anyone has a recommendation on a good brand they’ve used I would appreciate the input. Thanks in advance.
