[Q] Charge cable - Asus Transformer TF701

Just a question for people who also have the TF700.
Is the charge cable the same of the TF700 or is it a different one?
I'm looking to buy some extra charge cables since i like to have one in my car and also a sync cable at my desk but at the moment it's not easy to find accessoires for the TF701, so i was wondering if the charge cable is the same as the TF700.

No, definitely a different cable. I have not seen them for sale yet. But as always I suspect the Chinese copycats to not be too far behind so they should arrive within the next few weeks. And original.... well, if they would cost less then 5 euro/dollar, sure, anything above that, I'll buy a copy with free shipping.

I guess owners of older transformers ( i have a TF101), will just need TF701 USB cable as the existing Asus Wall Plug should work.
I'll confirm this when i get my hands on a TF701. Hopefully not long now.

Thanks for the info, will wait till i see the cables for the tf701 popup online.

I can confirm this. The charger of the TF101 will work on the TF701 but you need a different cable because the connector on the Tf701 is different compared to the TF101

Charging cable is definitely different but the wall adapter looks to be the same. I'm using my tf700 adapter with the new cable as we speak.

My charger is still in the box, the TF700 charger looks identical and is working fine. Regrettably they changed the connector, at a guess I'd say so you have to buy a new dock.

Just got my TF701 and the platic cover (part that you hold when plugging/unplugging) came off the first time I unplugged it so now I have to be very careful with it.
Still can't find cheap clones of that cable online, hope they pop up soon.

I'm looking for a cord too! My cat just ate mine.
How am I supposed to charge my TF701 now?

The new connector is smaller than the one on TF101. I guess it is because the new connector is USB 3.0 instead of 2.0.

It has the same connector as the Vivo tab.
Maybe you should look on the web for a cable for that because it is much longer on the market.
For example:
http://www.tvc-mall.com/details/OEM...ivoTab-Windows-RT-TF600T-TF810C-1.5M-MCH-967/
or here:
http://www.asusparts.eu/en/Asus-14004-00860000

Thanks for the advice!

No cables anywhere yet
This is bogus, I can't believe they don't have a decent supply of Tf701 proprietary USB cables out yet, WTF.
If anyone's interested I guess you could snatch up a big supply from China and resell them to make some nice bank, aliexpress . Com has a bulk 200 for $820.

Nexus 7 Car Charger

I was just wondering if anyone here has spotted a Nexus 7 car charger? Does it not matter if it's not specifically made for the Nexus 7? I'm trying to find one to buy online and I'm having some troubles. First post here I think I came to the right place though. :laugh:

Clicked thanks on accident lol. Any USB car charger should work, but I would make sure you grap a 1 amp one just so it has enough output to charge the tablet at a decent rate.
probably better with a 2amp one. samsung makes one for the tab2, about $12 on amazon, and just use your own microusb cable to connect to it.

Yup, go with a 2Amp one. Most of the cigarette lighter usb chargers are 2.1A.
Avoid the cheap Chinese 2+Amp car chargers, they can be so badly made they cause enough interference to wipe out your FM radio.
/edit 1Amp will be fine but don't go lower, the N7 would likely burn it out.
FYI I tried a 5v 1a wall charger and my gnex7 said f u wouldn't take the charge. 2a or nothing I say

Do you already have the Nexus 7? If so, can you take a look at the charger and see if rated at 1A output and/or try to charge it with a charger that came with your phone?
I am just curious if it can actually charge with less than 2A. The charger listed in the Play Store outputs 2Amps and I thought most tablets require 2A to charge.

Still waiting, should only be a couple of days now though...
I know this is something most people never do...but if you read the manual for the Nexus 7 it says you can charge it on a standard USB port with the Nexus 7 in sleep mode (no doubt because the power draw is much less). Standard USB ports are typically .5A...sometimes less. I would say that's the actual minimum. For the fastest charging 2A is what you want though.
The ASUS charger that comes with the N7 is rated at 2A (10W). I tested an old BlackBerry 0.85A (~4W) micoUSB charger and it seemed to work fine and the N7 didn't complain though I didn't do any scientific tests against the charging rates.
The 0.5A (2.5W) chargers probably won't even charge the unit if you're actively using it.
Cheers,
Kermee

Yeah...read my previous post...the manual says you can charge on a standard usb port (0.5A sometimes less) but only if the Nexus 7 is in sleep mode...ie you're not actively using it. If you can't charge it while connected to USB and it's in the sleep state...then your usb port is probably a low power USB port (<0.5A).
For those looking for a good backup battery charger for it...I recommend this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005NGKR54/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00
works perfectly with my Nexus 7 (just make sure to use the correct USB out port on it as only one of them is 2A)
DealExtreme Charger
Saw this one on DealExtreme, even come with cable:
http://www.dealextreme.com/p/car-ci...-port-for-google-nexus-7-tablet-146751?item=8
Will be ordering will update when arrives. Also they're carrying Nexus 7 Cables in Pink, Green and Orange.
Was using a Sprint micro-USB plus charger (model PVX8823) with attached cable and standard USB port for 2nd device that I was using for my phone. Output is 0.65Amp which isn't sufficient and will slowly drain the N7 battery while in use. ~$35 at Sprint retail store. Wouldn't recommend for obvious reason.
Fortunately, had a spare Motorola SPN5400A 1Amp I bought with some screen protectors from Amazon because it was cheap like ~$5. 1Amp is sufficiently to maintain the charge while in use at near worse case running 3D games like Dead Trigger, Shadowngun, etc. So, 1Amp is minimum threshold.
You need a charger that:
1) Is capable of 2A (1.5A may be sufficient, 1A is a little too low)
2) Shorts D+ and D- together - This rules out most iPad chargers.
If it says it is made for iPod/iPad it will not work without modifications or adapters.
Samsung tablet chargers will work.
If you take an iPad charger, open it up, and short D+ and D- together, it will work.

Most chargers for android phones will work. I use my HTC charger for ,mine and I bought a car charge that has the standard micro USB connector but also has another USB port so I can charge 2 devices at the same time with 1 charging unit. You droid razor charger will work just fine. You just need to locate a charger that is capable of charging 2 devices at the same time such as this one

Check out this oem charger from Sprint. Its a dual port charger with a 2a output and you dont have to worry about buying a knock off charger that may or may not perform as expected. It also can be used as a wall charger. Good price too....
http://www.ebay.com/itm/130712043019?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_1459wt_1399
So are any of these confirmed 100% to work? the one a few links back (GTMax) says works with iphone, and I thougth that meant would NOT work with N7. So I am confused on what will work, and I am already on my 2nd Nexus7 being I blew out the USB trying a bunch of differnt chargers for the car.
I would like something that is small and can have multiple USB plugged in, but not a show stopper, just hope to find something on Amazon (Prefer Prime) so I can oder with my case today. Really want to use this in the car more (GPS\GoogleMusic..ect.), but with no power not a great option.
Thanks in Advance,

Second Charger

Has anyone found a wall charger that they're happy with? I have an Amazon basics 2.1 Amp one that charges OK and shows up as an A/C charger in the battery stats, but it's not as fast as the stock one (which already is slow).
I'd post a link to what I have, but the forum still sees me as a newbie even though I've been lurking around for a few years now.

If you don't really care about super fast charging time almost all usb wall chargers are the same because of the limitations of a usb cable. Just color, shape, and size might vary
I'm using the my hp Touchpad charger. It seems like it charges faster than the original charger. I'll have to test and see though.

I bought a pogo charger so it won't take up the micro usb slot and also safer charging with pets (or kids). If I'm lucky it will charge faster too.
the pogo charger uses the original samsung ac adapter though.. it doesn't come with one
I just use any random charger I have (I think I use an old Kindle one right now) and leave it charge while I sleep. I have no complaints and have a POGO on order.
I ordered the Powergen chargers for both the wall and my car. They supply 3.1 amps so whatever the max is that the N10 will take, it will get it.
Search for "powergen 3.1" on Amazon and you'll find both.

Thanks everyone for your input. I ended up ordering the Powergen 3.1 charger suggested above. I'll report back on what my experience is. I did note that one of the reviews of that item at Amazon says it charges the Nexus 10 well, so my hopes are high.
Next question - anyone know what happens if you plug in the POGO charger and a USB charger at the same time?
Your charger isnt going to make a great deal of difference in charge time. An updated and/or custom kernel will help a LOT more with that.
The AC wall unit isn't a charger, it's the power supply for the charger inside the N10.
Me and another N10 owner measured how much current the N10 draws from the PS and it was less than 1A, so the device isn't even asking anywhere near the max that the PS can supply. Unless there is someother reason and there very well could be, a larger PS "might" be a waste of time/money.
I think the N10 charger uses a special usb protocol which allows it to charger faster than most

I'm intrigued; how is that? More importantly, does such a kernel currently exist? I started this thread in search of a second charger that just worked as well as the original one. I'd be happier if could find something that did better than the OEM.

What I can tell you is that both powergen units charge the N10 fine.
What I can't tell you is whether they charge the N10 any faster than the stock wall unit. I haven't done any testing.
I'm expecting my pogo cable any day, maybe I'll do some testing then.
There are so many differing theories here, who knows?

Yes so many, maybe if someone would write to Mr google and ask him he would explains it to us hehehe
I have seen some dual USB port PS that are rated "total" for both "not" each port. How is this PowerGen 3.1?
Just check and it's listed as "shared", so that's 3.1A total.
The description clearly states that each port can supply up to 3.1A. If both are used at once, the 3.1A is shared.

Confirmed Working USB cables

All,
Just wanted to post this up since we have been having trouble with chagrining on our phone. I resonantly ordered 4 cables off amazon, all are confirmed working.
Here they are post up all your working UBS cables. Remember the charger needs to be at least 1.8amp. I suggest a charger capable of at least 2.0amp for best results with different cables.
OK so they problem I was having was that it would show charging but would not actually be charging. After being plugged in all night the phone said 80% charge. Restart the phone and it says 100%. Not sure what the deal is but a simple restart solves it.

I have a Nexus 7 that came with an Asus charger and accompanying cable. This works with proper charging on my VZW LG G2(non slow).
I have also found a way to have charging (non slow) in my car using Ibolt Xpro dock. You cannot use the cable that they send you however. I have a VZW official car charger and plugged into the usb port on that is the usb cable that came with the LG G2 phone and voila it works. How is that for confusing.

Tf701t Mains Adapters

Hi guys,
I had more than one mains charging adapter for my TF700 as it was more convenient to leave one plugged in permanently on my desk and carry another around in my laptop bag for out of house charging.
Had a look around and can't find any charging adapters or usb cables available. Has anyone seen any anywhere?
I sent an email to Asus Shop and had the following response:
"Dear Owen,
Thank you for your interest to our e-shop
Unfortunately we don’t have this product in our shop but that does not mean this product in not available elsewhere. ASUS Shop is an outlet for refurbished ASUS tablets and notebooks – the range of accessories offered in our shop is rather limited.
You should be able to obtain this product from following Asusparts site. Or please contact ASUS Support Team for a list of retailers."
However, they don't list the TF701 yet
Damn Asus for changing the proprietary charger!!!
I remember from when the tf101 released, it took months before there was official acessories available from asus.
I dont expect to get a spare charger for a good couple of months.
I think if you already have a wall plug from your tf700, you could probably get away with just getting another tf701 USB cable and plugging it in to your TF700 wall plug.

Wall plug for the TF700 is identical so you can use it without a problem.
Problem is, there are currently no USB cables for the new, slightly smaller connector that the TF701t uses.
Have been looking for a spare one already, just in case No luck so far.

I looked for a charging cable with TF701 connector on Amazon and Ebay but no luck yet. I bought a while ago one for my TF700 with a lenght of 2 meters that comes handy at airports.

What you plan to do with the Micro USB cable since the tablet has no Micro USB connector? (I now it comes with the adapter)

That part number works on my TF701.
I just want to verify that the Ac charger (not the cable) from my TF101 is okay to use with TF701.
Thanks

the "chargers" are all the same: a wall wart with a usb3 connector, 5V out as default, 15V out on transformer connect.

Anyone knows which brand of batterypack offers a 15V out by USB to charge the TF701 (700 also)?
Did quite some searching on this but can't find any.

This one even comes with an adaptor for the tf700. I don't own one but it has a lot of favorable reviews. I have owned other batteries by the same company and never had a problem with them. There's also a switchable voltage external battery on amazon that claims its 12V setting works with Asus tablets. Search amazon for 12v external battery. Other sites probably carry them as well but I only buy from amazon because returns are so dang easy.

When the tf101 was my main tablet I bought a cheap in-car charger off ebay. The seller claimed the circuitry inside boosts the voltage to 15V (cars generally run on 12V). Here's what happended: The tablet did actually try to charge, and it indicated it did. But as the adapter was a fake (I teared it down to find a diode inside and 11.2V output voltage), the voltage was way too low. The power supply circuitry inside the tablet converts the 15V down to whatever it uses (the 15V will be chosen because that way the current can be kept low enough for standard usb connectors) but the input was too low, and it whined. What happened is, even while displaying that it's charging, the battery drained. This all makes sense.
So if I can provide some advice here: 12V was too low to charge a tf101. The tf701 can, if switched off, be charged off 5V. I'm pretty sure in the worst case you'll see behavior like on my tf101, but will be able to charge if switched off. This is valid for in-car chargers and backup batteries. I wouldn't go for less than 15V. What I use in my car is a variable voltage multi supply for notebooks and a original asus cable soldered to it.

Sadly no adapter for the tf701 yet, but thanks for the find. Not too expensive by the way.

APLUS DASH car charger works

I had been waiting for aftermarket Dash charging products and found a car charger on Amazon listed for $17.99
It works perfectly fine and "Dash" charges.
It comes with a Dash charging cable as well.
There were a couple other identical ones by different names but this one already had some positive reviews.
Update: It looks like the"APLUS" ones are out of stock. However, these LULUTEK ones are identical, just with a different label. They have really good reviews as well.
LULUTEK Dash Car Charger with Super Speed Charging Technology 5V 4A for Dash System OnePlus 3 OnePlus 3T OnePlus 5 Dash Charging, Qualcomm 3.0 Quick Charge Devices, Huawei, OPPO, HTC and More
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B074V53TWP
76.93$ on Amazon Canada. Ugh. Sometimes I hate our Amazon so much.
Seems identical to the Baozu ones on Aliexpress, which perfectly too fyi.
Can I use any type c cable to get the fast charge capabilities, or does it have to be the red OnePlus made cable??

That's one hell of a markup.
Is it USB 3.0 ish female type-A port? I have a few QC2.0/3.0 branded car chargers and combining with a "magic" QC2DASH converter, dash charger comes from my car
You still have to use a Dash capable cable.
However, you can find aftermarket Dash cables on eBay and Amazon for like $6.
This one actually comes with a Dash charger cable. Not bad for $17.99

that was my first test after receiving the convertor and phone battery was 80%-ish.
Here is another test with Power bank output 18W goes into convertor and 5volt/3A into phone.
I do a lot of charging test and measuring for fun. and this suit me Better than Most common 5v/4A circuit design from eBay /Chinese knock off car charger in Low budget
Google : YZXstudio ( if you are interested in the convertor )
It seemed that most of the devices that would charge at 5V/3A via USB-C to USB-C cable on my Nexus 5X, would only charge at about 2.4A on the OP5T.

That's the official car charger by OnePlus correct?
I'm wondering if this APLUS one is a safe bet. The Fakespot on their Dash cable on Amazon has a C rating.
For the OP, is this APLUS one legit... or would I be better off looking into the VOOC chargers that I know are the exact same technology?

No, the silver car charger in the adapter is QC3.0 from ZMI brand, along with QC2DASH convertor and charging meter when I first have it tested.
So just in case anyone is interested, here is ampere on the OEM wall charger that came with my phone (1st picture 3300 mA) as well as the Aplus dash car charger (2nd pic 3440). Interestingly the Aplus charger seems to charge ever so slightly faster, with a little more voltage and mA. I haven't noticed any issues with heat or anything else so far. I'm pretty happy with it, especially for the price.
now, if they would re-stock them...
Link is not working for me.
