Car Charger? - Nexus 7 Accessories

I'm thinking of getting a Nexus 7 to replace my in dash OG Samsung Galaxy Tab 7. This means I'll need a car charger that outputs enough juice.
In my tablet experience, HTC Flyer/Asus Transformer/HTC Evo View/OG Galaxy Tab, only the OEM chargers put out enough juice to keep it charging under load.
So, what are the requirements, and has anyone found a suitable car charger that should meet those while wifi/Bluetooth/GPS are active?

I wad just thinking to use the same Motorola charger I have for my phone
My life for Aiur

The stock charger looks like a 2A/5V charger, much like the iPad
I use this for my iPad in the car

I have gotten away from using cigarette lighter chargers, and now just use a good converter. All my existing chargers and toys, including laptop, just plug into it.

Thanks folks.
Now to see if otg and charging can work together to solve the last problems.
No room for an inverter in my dash unfortunately.

I just ordered this http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320779506851 from ebay
Its the cheapest one that I could find that specifically stated it has 4.2 amps max output (2.1 amp for each port).
With shipping, it was a little pricey at 20.00 but if it performs as advertised I'll be happy.

That charger should be fine, but in general believe no specs you see on EBay. A lot of cheap (this one is not) chargers made in China just flat lie. Listed as 5V 2amp - well yes, just not at the same time. You can have 5 volts or two amps, just not at the same time. Even a good brand name does not help you - there are a lot of fakes. Look at the construction, and run some simple tests if it matters.

what is a converter going to do?
You mean inverter.

I also used an inverter, but my alternator kept failing...Not sure if there is a connection...But I don't think its the most efficient way to utilize the 12volts DC, converting it into AC and then the AC power cord converts the juice back into DC. Seems like a waste.

You wouldn't happen to have any pictures of your in-dash tablet setup would you? I'd be interested to check it out bro.

When this same question is asked for most 2amp devices lately the answer has been this ^ Although it's only 950mA
Especially for those wanting to use their phone's in the car with GPS turn by turn navigation, streaming and bluetooth enabled.
The Genuine Original Motorola Rapid Rate Charger is the only one that has really worked.
http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Vehi...&keywords=original+motorola+car+quick+charger
YMMV, Now to find the vendor that sells the real thing..

I've just ordered one from Amzon, is a dual usb port one, 2.1 amps on 1 port, 1amp on the other, gets good reviews saying that it charges power hungry devices quickly and only a couple of quid!! http://www.amazon.co.uk/TRIXES-Char...VSRK/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1342262522&sr=8-2

2 amp car charger?

So, I know the Note 2 uses a 2 amp charger. Are there any good car chargers that can output in 2 amps? I currently am using a Motorola one, and I think it's just 1 amp. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
I found a 2A car charger on the shelf at Wal-Mart for $8. Works fine for me.
If you have a 5 Below near you, they have a 2.1 amp dual for 5 bucks

The charger I bought for my Captivate charges it, I'll have to look at it to see what amperage it is.
I have this charger from my previous iPhone and it works like a charm! It is 2.1amp but I don't think it hurts the phone since it has smart technology to direct the power as needed!

The motorola one you have is still a beast when it comes to recharging. I have a few of them, one in each car and an additional one for business trips. While running gps, streaming music, and the screen on, my battery still recharges. I have other 2.1 mAh chargers, but always come back to the motorola one. Especially since they are around $5 on amazon.

Hope it wasn't the one I found. It SAYS 2A on the box but it has 2 USB ports and thus feeds 1A PER PORT.
The Samsung OEM car charger for either the tablets or the Notes is a 2A unit.

That's the exact one I use as well. To give you an example, the Note 2 just can't be charged via standard USB port. 450mAh is not enough. I will see if I can do some testing to show you the differences visually this week.
Driving 45 min to pick up the last 64gb microSD card for sale in TN at radio shack (for $39) I had bluetooth on, sharing my data connection with my wifes tablet via foxfi, and using gps, the motorola still can charge the battery while all that was running. At my office, we would call that FM, because I can't really explain how it works just as good as my $15 2.1mAh charger.
What app are you guys using to measure charging rate?

I use a 3A charger in my car, but it's all wired in. Got myself one of these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DC-DC-Con...plies_ET&var=560164310799&hash=item3ccbaa5de8 , a 3 way switch, 2 'add-a-fuse' things and wired it all up behind the dashboard with just my Micro USB cable poking out in the drivers side of the dashboard, which plugged into my old car cradle when I had the HTC Sensation. The switch is mounted in one of the blanking plates down by my right knee (right hand drive) and lets me choose between off, on and on-with-ignition for the charger. At the moment I have to plug it into the bottom of the Note 2 myself but I'm planning next to de the wireless charging mod, and integrate the charger into the cradle I have, with NFC also in there to activate car mode when I put the phone in the cradle for (IMO) the perfect solution with no wires trailed all over the car, and my lighter socket free for other things
It was all pretty cheap as well, and an easy mod to do - even though the cradle is on the opposite side of the car to the fuse box and I had to pull out the whole radio and centre console to route the wires... all hidden away now though.
I'll be doing the same on my next car as well.
I was looking at *low profile* dual USB ported chargers but it appears from my lack of knowledge that these are all wired for iPad charging and without a specific charging cable they will only supply max 1A to the Note 2. Can someone with more technical knowledge of the vagaries of USB power please clarify in simple terms?
I would have thought the iPad would take a higher current than 1A

Nexus 6 Car Charger?

Anyone have a good recommendation for a car charger for the Nexus 6? I drive a lot, and need to be able to give it a quick charge.
I'm open to cheap and expensive options, I just need a good quick charger.
Well, I used the Nexus wireless charger for my N5 in my car. (Some cars support USB natively. For those that don't, any 2A Auto-to-USB -- or even better, Auto with corded microUSB -- adapter will work.) The magnets keep the N5 locked in place, so it doesn't bounce off, and there were no cables to fiddle with when placing the phone on (or taking it off) the charger. True, you had to get a bit creative if you wanted it mounted, but that usually wasn't too difficult. Personally, the N5 with charger fit perfectly in my center console, so mounting issues weren't a concern.
We'll have to see whether or not the N6 will support the magnetic mount for wireless chargers at all, and if it does, how well does it stay in place? If it works as well as the N5, then the Nexus wireless charger would be my top recommendation for a car charger.
As is posted in another thread, there are Quick Charge 2.0 certified accessories available, or will be soon.

Very interested in this. Ironically I could care less about quick charge at home... I always plug my phone in when I'm driving, and I work out of town so it's a lot. I wonder if using quick charge daily for am hour or so each way would hurt the phone... my phone already gets pretty hot driving with streaming music and navigation/waze.

From what I hear it could mess with the battery. I only charge to full and only when I really need power I will charge it for a short time.

Not for $30 With this battery, I can likely work all day and make it to the gym afterwards where I listen to music while working out and watch play movies/netflix while I finish up with cardio. My normal car charger will likely be fine for this.

That's actually the cheapest of the quick chargers I've found so far but yeah $30 is pushing it. I have found myself with a low charge on the OPO before where a quick charger would have been helpful. Instead I've had to use a NewTrent battery pack with it and the phone stuck in my man purse.
I use the Scosche USBC242M it's a dual port charger. Each port is 12 watts(2.4A). Its pretty fast, I believe the certified quick charge 2.0 ones are 15 watt ports.

The Ventex choice may be worth keeping an eye on to see if pricing drops (currently out of stock at $19.95 + ship).

Looks like it's a more flush fitment too, whereas the rest are much taller.
I've used some Pure-Gear cables before. They were not manufactured well at all. They were also mislabeled as to what type.
Remember everybody, if you use a 2A car charger, which now seem to be widely available, you also must use the proper cable or you won't get the full current.
This Mediabridge is my favorite charging cable:

I can vouch for the incipio car charger, acts very similarly to the turbo charger and definitely charges faster than any car charger I've personally used. Pricey, but the tradeoff is worth it
...
....
I ordered the neobits charger that was linked earlier. I like the idea of the new turbo style charger in the car. Price is deceptive because the cheapest shipping option is $14...

It works and everything but it isn't as flush mount as the design would seem to indicate. It sticks out a little which kind of annoys me. It is more minimal than any other car quick charger I have seen though so I guess it's ok.

Anker Quick Charge 3.0 (Charger Review)

*Disclaimer*.....the S7 does not support Quick Charge 3.0. It only supports 2.0 but I may be picking up the G5 or HTC 10 which does support it.
I needed a new/extra charger so I figured I'd get something that supports the latest Quick Charge technology.
The charger itself feels well made. The prongs fold in for traveling purposes and it doesn't block the outlet/outlets sitting next to it. In regards to noise this charger makes none of it. Those who have used cheap chargers know the humming/buzzing noise I'm referring to. It's extremely annoying.
Now onto the part that really matters. I haven't had the time to compare this charger to the stock Samsung charger in regards to really putting them through the paces but early results look promising for the Anker.
I started the charge process with quick charge enabled at 5% and started a timer for 30 minutes. The stock Samsung charger was able to bring the battery to 43% while the Anker charger brought the battery to 52%.
Within the next few days I will do a test from 5% to 100% both with quick charge enabled and disabled.
On a side note I also picked up a 6 foot kevlar wrapped Anker micro USB cable. It feels well made and the connections are nice. I probably wouldn't have bought it if it wasn't on sale but I needed a new long micro USB cable.
So far I'd have to say that if you need another charger and you want Quick Charge 3.0 for another phone then go ahead and grab one. If you don't really need another charger or don't need Quick Charge 3.0 then I wouldn't waste the money on one unless you really want the slightly faster charging for the S7 Edge.

No, it will charge at the same speed as a QC 2.0 charger since there S7/S7E don't support QC 3.0
That's exactly what I asked, re qc2.0 but thanks for clarification, I wasn't sure if qc3.0 was 'backwards compatible' kind of thing

It is backwards compatible with QC 2.0. I did a test of those chargers QC 2.0/3.0, Wireless, fast wireless that you can see in my signature. The charge times are identical as you will see.

Yes, quick charge 3.0 compatible with all qc2.0 supported devices, like S7 edge.

Wired. I have no use for wireless chargers.
Once you go wireless you don't go back. lol I hate wires. I have four wireless chargers. Three were pretty much free. With T-Mobile Jump (phone junkie) I just sell my fast charging cablez and headphones for a few bucks since I don't need anymore. So why didn't Samsung put 3.0 charging in the S7 Edge?
I guess they designed the phone before quick charge 3.0 was available? Maybe it hurt they're bottom line? I don't know but whatever the reason it was a stupid decision.
The reason I don't like wireless chargers is because the only time I ever charge my phone is either in the car or while laying in bed. In both places I like using the phone while it charges.

No, QC has it as part of the SoC, si its supported technically but Samsung chose not to use it for an unknown reason.
They disabled it in the Snap dragon version because the other phone with their own SOC wouldn't support it so to keep the 2 on parity they disabled ours.

Which powerbank should i buy?

Hey, i'm happy with my N5X battery, but i'm gonna need a power bank for my travels.
So can you recommend me one. Is there any powerbank that has type C USB port??
There still aren't many USB Type C devices out there, your best bet is still probably a power bank with plain old USB type A ports, so you can charge your phone (with a type A -> type C cable) and other things as well. I just got this one because it is integrated with an AC charger, so it's one less thing to carry: http://plugable.com/products/pb-wa5k. It quick-charges the N5X.
Here are a few power banks with a Type-C output of 3A. So it will fast charge your Nexus 5X.

that one won't rapidly charge USB-C devices, both due to its total output and due to its lacking USB-C port

I haven't had the opportunity to experience their customer service but I agree on the quality of their products being nothing less than top notch.

If you ever need to deal with them, (Anker) you won't be disappointed. I thought I had received a bad charger from them (not 100% sure though), and they sent out a replacement as we spoke on the phone no questions asked. Then emailed me a prepaid shipping label to return the old one. Now that's great customer service.
I own the Anker USB C power bank, as well as several others of their accessories. Truly top quality stuff, plus their customer service is exceptional.
Look at the powerbanks of anker mabye they van het you hooked
Hey I had a quick question about the GMYLE power bank . Is the link that you provided the same thing as the one I found on Amazon but cheaper.I can't link it sorry but you have to search GMYLE on Amazon, it is the 10 dollar one . Also will this one work for the nexus 5x and say "rapidly charging". Thanks
Every power bank which gives at least 2,5 A should allow fast charging.

If it's their type C bank then it's definitely fast charging to stock wall charging capabilities 5V3A)

If not, a 5V 2.4A power bank still does a decent job. My Anker Battery bank does 15% to 80% in one hour. Stock wall charger gets to 90% in the same time.

Wireless charger type?

Hello all.
I've never messed with wireless charging since it's relatively new. I pre-ordered my Note 7 yesterday and have decided it's time. What kind of charger do I need? I checked out the Samsung site and it doesn't explain much. Any recommendations on cheap quick chargers?
Thanks!

I've tried plenty of different wireless charging pads and stands for the S6 edge and S7 edge. Most of them either don't charge unless you take the case off, some of them stop at 100% and doesn't keep it charged at 100%, some you have to place just right or it will keep pausing and charging over and over, then you have some that charge extremely slow.
I would advise just to get the Samsung Pad or Samsung Stand wireless charger. So far it's been the best at charging wireless for Samsung phones vs 3rd party chargers. I myself use a Samsung Pad for my room, which is not the fast charging version. Charges at a good speed, even with a thick or slim case on it. Worry Free. You should be able to find on Amazon for under $30.

Do you think it'll charge through a case with a flygrip? I figure I'll have to pull the case off but I was just hoping I could, lol.

There's a high possibility that it won't charge with the flygrip, since it will elevate the phone from the charger. But until you get it, you won't know for sure.

I've gotten it to work with an Otterbox defender case with the clip on the back. So most likely, yes. But I can't confirm with a flygrip.

no need to overthink this any samsung charger or simply check amazon reviews to see whats good for others. I m using a choetech that I got on amazon which worked great with my Note 5 but was a little picky with my S7. But it was a fast charger I only paid $20 for but I was truly happy with it.
Like I said in the beginning dont over think it either get a good cheaper fast charger or just get samsung versions. fyi - I got the free samsung wirless chargers with my note 5 free gifts and they are terrible too me
What I found is that Galaxy Note 7 supports fast wireless charging like S7/edge. I tested with Tronsmart Chocolate fast wireless charger, maximum 10W output power (9V/1.2A). And it works well with other brands Quick Charge 2.0/3.0 power adapter, not only Samsung AFC adapter.

Did you ever test a wireless charger with a Flygrip? I use one on my Note (no case), and I'd like to get a Stand version - so in addition to the 1/4" thickness of the flygrip, I also need to see if the bottom of the stand has a wide enough lip to accommodate.
