What are some good external batteries that support quick charge 2.0?
Sent from my XT1254 using XDA Free mobile app
The Power Pack Micro is a good one - supports quick charge and functions as a key / phone finder with the Motorola connect app. Here's the link - http://www.verizonwireless.com/accessories/motorola-power-pack-micro/
Also, I saw a couple other quick charge Motorola Power Packs with larger capacity at my local VZW corp store.

well, here's this one:

that has 2800 mah, and is half the price as the other one posted.

Most external battery packs are fairly similar internally.
The most important thing to consider is that it has a high output current.
Many only output 1A, which may reduce you power drain, but one charge under heavy use.
Ensure you get one with the 2.1 Amp output, you will be happier.
Consider the length of cable you will use to connect it.
I prefer a super short micro USB cable and to hold the powerpack behind, but this changes with the curved back of the turbo.
If you will use a cord and have the power pack in your pocket, consider length.
I would avoid a power bank with a built in micro USB cord as it is likely to wear out if move around like hing, camping, etc.
Otherwise, get the most capacity in MaH you can afford and are willing to carry.
Cheaper chinese ones are available but may not reach their stated capacity or efficiency.
I was able to obtain a small quantity of Quick Charge 2.0 battery banks directly from the distributor. I am keeping a couple and selling the rest to recover my costs.

Hmm those seem to be quite expensive at $50 a piece.... I hope you're able to make your money back, but why would you not just buy ONE reasonably priced one on amazon?

They don't sell any with Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 anywhere yet. Incipio has one in the works but even theirs is priced at $89. I was able to make most of my money back.

I'm looking for a backup battery. Has anyone come across any that have enough juice to put a good charge on the nook? I know those little 400mah batteries can charge the nook but how long will 400mah last? I'm looking for something that can give it a 50%+ charge
This what you are looking for? That would get you about 1.5 charges.
This would give you about 1 charge.
The Zagg one would be perfect but its $100! I dont want to spend over $50 guess I should have said that.
I will look into the other one you posted thanks
EDIT: The energizer one looks great!! I am probably going to order one. Thanks a lot!
I didn't notice an amp output on the energizer. NC is looking for 1900 mA for proper charging. That first gizmo is dead perfect but 100 beans is a bit outside my budget too. I have a 4400 mah battery that does 1000 mA output- i wonder if that would add a few hours to my NC? I take very long flights often.

If I remember right The stock nook color charger is rated at 1.9A which is 1950mah. The energizer website lists the battery linked above as 1750mah which should work great.
Check out Brunton Chargers:
http://www.rei.com/category/40006509
I went with this unit, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0038VQET4/ref=oss_product
It's under $40 and provides a full charge.
What is the recommended way to test the time-to-charge? There are two issues that I see in capturing this data.
1) You really shouldn't run the thing dry - I mean it won't even boot with the power adapter plugged in until it has a little juice in the battery. I suppose youl could to drain it to 25% then charge from there. Then add 25% to whatever your time-to-full is?
2) how can you tell how long this thing takes to charge if you're asleep. Is there a log file which gets updated with charging events? Or some specific app for such things?
A little big but if you want to keep your mobile devices running for a long time try this:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003ZBZ64Q/ref=oss_product
It charges my NC and G2 3 times each and change. Especially useful when using the wireless tethering on the G2 to keep the NC online.
I've been running my NC entirely from a Tekkeon MyPower MP3450 with the MP3450-10 add-on pack for two full days of heavy usage (probably around 18 hours or so of actual use) and the MyPower is only drained down half-way while keeping the NC topped off at 100%. I'll be back with an update in another couple of days when I expect it to be empty.
Edit: Yep, I got four days of heavy usage (probably equivalent to four full recharges of the NC) from the Tekkeon pack. I bought it to keep my laptop running on long flights, but it's nice to know I'll be able to read if the power goes out for a few days.
Will using a standard usb cable with these backup batteries still only charge at .5A? If I use the stock nc cable on the energizer battery linked above will it damage the battery?
Have you looked at Monoprice? They have battery backups. I haven't personally ordered one of these (yet...need one for my evo) but I've ordered lots of stuff from them and everything has worked very well.

That's a decent price. Have you had much of a chance to test the unit?
With the NC's built-in battery rated at 4000 mAh, this battery should be able to completely recharge an NC. Or give you an additional ~8+ power-on hours.

I have a version of one of those, works fine except it's hard to keep in place. If you get one, also get a M-F cable as well.

When I bought mine, I just Googled "buy micro usb extension." I just did it again and found this in seconds...

A Micro B male fits both Micro A and B female, which is why nobody bothers selling Micro A male cables... It would be less compatible with nothing to gain.

Thanks..I am surprised Monoprice doesnt carry it. Anywho, after shipping + cost of that cable + 2 x 2800 mAh, it was cheaper to buy the one from Amazon.
I am on travel very often and my last experience with my Desire was that when working on the phone with no possibility of charging it, I was left with very little or non battery late afternoon. Any suggestion for a good Travel Battery Pack anyone? One extra charge will do. Thanks
Probably better off getting a spare battery, and charge it up, most easiest way i think instead of carrying aa batteries and charge cases, leads etc.
Just look on ebay and click cheapest first.

i use solar charger it has built in 3000Ma battery you can also charge it from pc or adapter and ready to go with extra power. Have it from ebay for $29
Did anyone test any spare batteries from ebay? Thought of getting some, but not sure if it is worth it or not (the charge should at least be as high as the stock battery's) .
Got this few days ago from a china online retailer. Good construction and nice pocketable size. Slightly heavier than LG2X & about 20% thicker. Comes with 0.5A & 1A USB output.
So far, on 0.5A output, no in-charger lock ups yet - which I do get from some AC chargers.
Priced upwards of US$35. Google for "5000mah Power Bank".
will LG come out with an extended battery for the Optimus 2X ?
If they made 2 models. one like we have with a 1500 battery and one that is 1.2-1.4X thicker with lets say a 3000 battery I think almost everybody would choose the slightly thicker 3000 battery model.
These devices are small enough as it is, they should now stop trying to make them smaller as they are surely limited by the screen size, and make them last longer.
I had a Del Axim X50v a few years back that I brought an extended battery and battery cover for, this actually made the device feel better in the hand.
I think the future is not far... for batteries that are either running on gas or like these ones which can be fully charged in less than 3 min. http://green.autoblog.com/2011/03/23/new-battery-technology-electric-vehicles-recharge-minutes/

Only tested twice from over 70% to full on 0.5A. Took longer than using AC adapter. Tried it once on 1A but got a bit hot quite quickly, so I switched over to 0.5A. Also, it takes a while to charge the pack itself from partial empty to full on 1A AC adapter - so I am guessing the 5000mah claim is reasonably accurate.
I bought this item from DealExtreme.
2200mAh Rechargeable Portable Emergency Power with Phone Adapters

It works fine, but the input broke after some uses and I had to fix it.

Alright, so I have a review for the Quick Charge External Battery / Power Bank from TechMatte. I was provided a free item in exchange for my unbiased review that I post somewhere on the internet. Alas, here I am.
So, with this quick charger and my LG G4, it's pretty simple. I charge the quick charger (takes an hour or so to charge it up) and then I just plug my phone into it. It registers as fast charging, and I just let it go from there.
From almost dead, my phone charged to full in about an hour's time. The first half hour was the fastest-- it went from 10% to 60%, and then it slowed down a little.
I have been able to get 2 full charges on the power bank, and then I recharged it.
Pretty basic design; small for it's size. I can easily fit it in my purse, or if you're a guy, you could easily fit it in your pocket.
I would highly recommend check it out-- it's probably going to be a lifesaver for me in the future.
Thanks for the free sample!! BTW, I follow them on twitter-- they post stuff for free from time to time in exchange for a review (like this). It's totally worth it.
Thanks for reading, and patronize this company!

What model phone do you have? The Aukey brand quick chargers definitely did not work with my T-Mobile phone.
I saw this one on Amazon and it caught my eye because this smaller than every other 10000 mAh portable battery (who actually needs thst much juice?). I'd like something I could keep in my pocket without being so aware that it's there.

I have the Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 battery. I got it on Amazon for about $25. It has a 5.2 amphour battery. It is tiny and it works well.
Using the Q-port I can charge my LG G4 from 15% to full in just over an hour. I 've also used it to charge my tablet, my wife's G3 and my daughter's Nexus 4. The standard port provides up to 2 amps which gives good charge times for any device that can use the extra power.
All in all, a nice, well made and handy device. Well worth $25

Its not 10000mah, its 5600mah.
As to why 10kmah is needed there is at least 25% efficiency loss. So your 10000mah is now 7000mah. Enough for two full charges. Whatever figure you see, knock 30% off of the main figure and depending on which brand maybe another 20%.

I meant OTHER power banks being 10000 mAh, not this one.
I still think 10000 is more than enough. Who needs 2+ full charges in a single day? Being able to top my phone off while in the office or being able to swap to a full battery, it's not even necessary for me to ever require a full charge. I like the idea of this particular charger because it can sit in my pocket and keep my phone topped off when not in use.

I don't see the need for a power bank at all when there is the option of replaceable batteries.
There is no need for a 2 charges in a single day unless you're into heavy gaming. otherwise its handy when you're away from a power source for more than a day.

it weighs as much as the phone. a spare battery is a fraction of that and would fit in your wallet.

I agree with you on that first point. I have a power bank, but haven't really touched it since I upgraded from the Nexus 5 to the G3 and still don't need it while I have th G4. I pretty much use it only to charge my spare G4 battery after I swap or occasionally charge my Nexus 7 when I'm carrying it and it's low charge.
I'm really into the idea of getting a power bank that is wireless charging compatible, though. Have my eye on one from Mugen. I like the idea of just keeping my phone in a pocket and it keeping a charge.

in a pocket means it will move around. these wireless chargers can be quite particular about positioning.
a wired power bank would be more reliable.
i like the idea of wireless charging on a flat surface and having a number of them around, unfortunately in the market where i live the dual sim G4 variant does not support it.

It would be a tight fit, though, not leaving much space to move around.

I'm looking for a replacement battery for my 910T. I remember Samsung had a battery and external charger for the spare battery...?
Anyway, wondering if anyone can suggest a good place (price) for a genuine Samsung battery.
Thanks in advance.

This is probably the last genuine battery available.

After these are gone all the rest found on will either be questionable copies or third party ones like Anker.

I tried waiting at Samsung web site for over 3 weeks for a battery, with no response, I have 2 note 4, black and white for me and my wife...
my 4 older Samsung batteries and 2 charger kits and they don't hold a charge anymore, from about 10 - 15 percent left, they shut down...
I just bought anker batteries on ebay with a charger for about $31, they hold a charge to 1%.. about 2 weeks ago.
they are lasting much better than the samsungs. and buying Samsung batteries on ebay or amazon.. u might be getting these fake batteries that don't last..
I've always gone Amazon. They were OEM batteries. I always check the feedback to make sure they aren't pulling a bait and switch.

The ones on Amazon are 99% fake knock offs which risk fire. Any story you have read online about a phone catching fire is usually either a result of a cheap knock off battery or adapter.
The only two places that have Note 4 batteries still are 100% legit.

and the Best Buy kit I posted earlier in the thread. Anywhere else is questionable.
If a big box store gets them like B & H they will be legit too.
Amazon's inventory has been proven to be compromised. Several have posted online about their batteries even "shipped and sold by amazon" had been clones.
In case you didnt know this happens often on Amazon. The SD Card market and perfume market on Amazon even from Amazon is also like this.
I'm using the Zerolemon 10000mah battery, also if there is a Batteries+ they stock standard replacement batteries for most phones.
Im very happy with Anker bought on Amazon.

I definitely recommend the anker batteries. You can buy them on Amazon.

Hey DeeXii, really appreciate your information. But the Samsug page directs you to purchase it from Amazon. It says it is shipped and sold by Amazon too. Do you think this one is legit as long as it is sold by Amazon? Cause it is heck of a lot cheaper than the BestBuy one...

I would recommend the one from Anker, same capacity as OEM from a reputable brand that makes batteries. It also comes with 18 month warranty and a bit cheaper than OEM one. If you still want the OEM one make sure it is shipped and sold by Amazon.com and you should be fine.
I ordered 2 anker and a external charger on eBay for $35
I hope they're real.

1 battery can last me one day, sometimes down to 30 percent, depends on what I am doing, other times, down to 20 and under.. but it makes the day, then I swap and use the other, but only when it drains to 1 2 or 3...
they are better than all these knock off, I think I paid $31.. but they are better than all my old ones put together, wait till my wife come back from vacation, she will definitely take 1, then I will have 4 old batteries. then I have to test the old batteries and anything that shuts down from 20 or 15 percent is getting retired, junked out..
maybe I will have to buy another set to be happy..

I just Re-read your post, you did say that. Well I got (hopefully) the same thing, I think I paid $32 to be exact. Fingers crossed.
I'm waiting on these in the mail. I wonder if they will be good? Ebay item 201375415018 How would I tell if they are fakes?
I'm waiting for my anker package with 2 batteries and an external charger myself.
I read in another thread, they blame the quick charge 2.0 puck for damaging the batteries. Saying the increase voltage pushed to the battery for fast charging is what kills the life of the battery.
So my question is, those who have replaced Samsung with aftermarket batteries, are you still charging at night with the Samsung qc2.0? Or just using a 1amp or 2amp charger?
Help appreciated.
Mostly use the old 2A charger to prolong battery longevity. Need a quick boost? Adaptive fast charger or turbo charger from moto.
I unlocked your mum's bootloader.
Well I disabled fast charge option on the phone so it should be charging at a "normal" rate now and not the high voltage charging.
So far these anker batteries seem excellent, at least compared to my very degraded original samsung batteries. A deal for 2 Batts and a external charger Imho.
The more I use regular charging, my battery appears to improve and return to normal. All this only supports my reservation towards devices with sealed batteries.
