Thanks for compiling this. I emailed Anker about the Astro Pro2 ad unfortunately it does not support Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0. They said that PowerIQ is different and doesn't charge as fast. I think the only ones that will do Fast Charge are ones certified as such.
That being said, I'm in for the Aukey.
I've been looking to buy the Aukey but its unavailable from Amazon right now
is the usb cable has to be different as well? couldnt be a normal usb cable to do fast charging??

i don't believe the wire has have anything to do with it.
which is faster, 9v 1.67 amps or 5v 2 amps? also, anyone come across a powerbank that has wireless charging AND fast charging?
one question that it seams i dont find in numerous searches i did, does the wall adapter from samsung lights any green light when starts to give fast charging? because i did see something similar but maybe was not the samsung wall charger.
thanks in advanced.

I have a Mophie, Powerbrick XL (12,000 ah) or something or other. Not cheap but it puts out 2.4X2.4 (two usb outputs) simultaneously. As I said not cheap but telling the ol lady her phone will have to die while she watches mine charge on the airplane is simply not a place I want to visit.

I believe it has to be a "charge and sync" cable. I have some charge only cables that came with small micro-USB powered devices that fail to fast charge, but a generic USB cable does. The charge-only cables don't need to pass data because the devices they came with only use them for power so it looks like you have to have the data lines intact.
I also got some nice micro-USB cables at Best Buy that have nice LED lights in them. The Pt brand one with just an LED light at the micro-USB end was able to fast charge, but got extremely hot. The other brand (Modal) that had LED lights all along the length of it failed to fast charge. I'm guessing that either the drain of all of those LEDs or the fact that they are powered by a chip on one end of the cable means that they force the USB connection to only supply the basic power. Both are going back to BB.
I found a nice USB "charge and sync" cable at Walgreens that spring coils into a housing (the round housing has a regular USB plug coming out one side and a micro USB plug coming out the other end and if you pull on them they extend equally - pull again and they retract together to lie flush with the housing). That one does fast charge. It is replacing (along with a cheap 2.4amp car charger that was almost as fast as an QC2.0 charger) an old cheap retractable car charger that I used to use on trips that failed to even keep up with the power drain of navigation on the S6edge or my S5. The retractable cable is not listed on Walgreens web site and I found it behind the photo counter in a bin of USB chargers and cables.

E-filliate brand Retractable Charge & Sync Cable for Micro-USB
Model #1311653 (?)
UPC: 8 26341 02003 9
The Walgreens web site shows other E-filliate brand cables in bright colors, but not this one. It was not in the case with the other phone accessories, it was behind the photo counter in a plastic bin full of an assortment of colorful chargers and cables that looked like the kind of thing you'd find on the counter next to a checkout stand. It's only 2 feet long fully extended, but it packs nicely. Unless you are looking for something that packs away nicely without tangling, I would think you might find some nicer and cheaper cables elsewhere, although this one was only $10.
I'd buy the Anker. Can't go wrong with them.
My own issue is I have too many of them!
Got the 15Ah on sale for $30 earlier this year.
That new one is 20Ah, ridiculous capacity!
But needed on excursions with ipads, etc.
Not a big deal if it doesn't charge as fast. I'm tempted to buy it and use galaxy charge current and compare rates with the included wall charger. Of course current doesn't mean squat if we don't know what rail it's on, i.e. 1.5A at 9V is better than 2V at 5V.
EDIT: How about LUDICROUS capacity for same price as the older version?

I have 3 different quick chargers around and none of them charge at a different rate with the different cables I have laying around except for the long cables. I use them generically between the chargers, pc, various devices.
As to the long cables (3 plus meter) charge times slow down on the few I've tried. Not huge but noticeable.

There are 2 things to note here. The phone will say whether or not it is fast charging and it will also show a prediction for how long it will take to get 100%. You can actually get a reasonably quick "time to full" estimate on a basic charger that supplies higher amperage, but I believe you will only get the "10 minutes for 4 hours" boost from an actual QC2.0 accessory that successfully negotiates the QC protocol with the charger. The QC2.0 protocol involves not just higher amperage, but higher voltage, which likely makes the difference for that boost.
So, when you say you have 3 different "quick chargers" around, do you mean "officially Qualcomm QuickCharge 2.0 accessories", or a charger that is higher amperage than normal and so uses the words quick and charge on the box.
Having said that, I've seen basic 2+ amp chargers that are fairly common where the phone predicts a total charge time to 100% that is very close to what I get on the adaptive charger or whenever the phone claims it is fast charging (only ever on an official QC2.0 accessory with the right cable). I think the only real difference is offering the initial boost of 4 hours for 10 minutes, but in the long run "actual QC 2.0" is not that much better than any high amperage charger for a full charge because the charge rate is not linear as the phone approaches 100%. This is the same reason why DC charging for EVs never lists the time to full because they'll get you to 50-80% in half an hour and then take another 2 hours to get you to 100%. The speed enabled by the high voltage is only an initial boost and matters little for a full charge.
The reason I would want an actual QC2.0 charger for the car or for an external battery pack is that I often jump in the car for a 10 minute trip when I'm getting low and it would be nice to get a significant charge during that time. With an external battery, having QC2.0 would mean less time having to keep the phone tethered to a brick. Otherwise, if you are only looking for a full charge then an official QC2.0 vs a high amperage charger isn't that big of a deal.
I'm an engineer. I have three qualcomm quick charge 2.0 chargers, one Oppo charger with their competing (and better ) technology, and uncounted random chargers from unknown past phones. Some more potent and some less. Yes, each of those qualcomm quick chargers will respond to the embedded controller on the phone and provide quick charging, the phone will note such when plugged in and notify to that effect. Yes, they make quick charge 2.0 car chargers and I also have one of those and yes it charges at the same rate as the 120 chargers in the house.
I'm a bit of a slut when it comes to these things.
That's great. Keep in mind that the only reason I asked is that there are plenty of packages out there that use the term "quick charge" in a generic sense and so I usually specify QC2.0 when I mean QC2.0 to differentiate.
But, back to the original question - you were indicating that all of the USB cables you have tried all seemed to charge at the same rate. I will reiterate that I have found micro USB cables that do not pass QC2.0 and the phone will back off to a nominal rate when they are used. Usually the cable is special in some way, for example:
two cables that I believe came with my Chromecast - they have one of those "ferrite core" style bulges in the wire (pictured below) and were only originally intended to provide minimal USB power to the Chromecast (no data)
a Modal LED lighted "charge and sync" cable from Best Buy - since the LEDs animate to show power flow, there are obviously some electronics in the plug/wire to sequence them, and whether or not that was the reason, they did in fact prevent QC2.0 from engaging (the phone did not show a "fast charging" status).
As such, I'd look for cables that include both "charge and sync" (most do) and I'd avoid anything active in the cable, like an LED light. Having said that, the Pt brand lighted cable (also from BB) that has just a solid white LED only at the micro USB end did seem to allow fast charging, but it got very hot so I didn't really like it in the end - but it does show that there are some non-passive USB cables that will still work with QC2.0.
Chromecast cable:
I went to a couple of Samsung shops here in Taiwan and they were out of those new chargers for fast charge. They were only selling the regular chargers from before. Salesmen also said he heard something about the new chargers causing damage to the smartphone (sensors). He was not sure he said but has heard about this issue. He could not confirm for sure said but he was pretty sure.

Frys has a large selection of retractable micro USB cables. I picked up a 2-pack of 3 foot cables yesterday and the phone indicates "fast charging" on them:
http://www.frys.com/product/6630234
Longer than the Walgreens cable and cheaper for 2 of them, but the cables on the Walgreens model seem a little beefier (which is likely why they only fit 2' of cord in the same retractable package).
I bought the Anker without reading the description well enough. :silly: It arrived and is almost the size of a Tablet! I returned it. So, don't be "underachieving Rob Lowe" and carefully READ before you buy!

I got the Anker E6 and it's a beastly size, but it completely charged my S6, from 5%, in ONE HOUR! I'll deal with the weight!
It's not the weight - I want pocket sized.

Hello, Long time follower, first time poster.
I cannot post the link, but if you search "Juiced Systems 4.2 AMP" in ebay it's the first item under "Best match" and it's $19.99
Has anyone tried these chargers that claim 2.1A per USB port? Or does anyone know of any similar car chargers that charge 2 devices @ 2.1A?
I just want to buy the best charger that isn't going to blow up my phone, and a dual charger would be excellent if possible.
Thanks in advance.

If it's the same one here from amazon http://www.amazon.com/Juiced-System...dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1 it appears to be apple only.
The one Android customer from that Amazon link said:
I bought this assuming it would charge my Droid DNA at an AC rate. Unfortunately, it charged at a USB rate and could not keep up with usage while driving.
It sounds like with that particular device, in order to get an Android phone to charge at an AC rate is to either modify the charger (through soldering) to short out the data pins or use a USB charge-only cable (DIY modification of an existing cable or purchased one). The Android phone should then see the charger as AC instead of USB for, hopefully, full and faster rate of charge.
I know you are looking for dual port, each with 2.1A - but I wouldn't hold my breath this one will output dual 2.1A without throttling down one of the ports. Its impossible to fit quality circuit in a small cigarette lighter package where due to excess heat the efficiency of your converter will decrease. And even if they manage to produce 4.2A you will either blow your fuse or melt your charger. Just think about it, you won't have any air circulation to even cool it down.
I only trust dual port chargers with 2.1A/1A rating. I reviewed one before - HERE from iSmooth which does work! Also, to my surprise, iSmooth charger was actually made for iPad/iPhone but it WORKS perfectly with Note 2. I can't voucher for other Apple converters, and as a matter of fact I have another one with a separate Apple and Android ports and Note 2 doesn't charge from Apple port. But the one from iSmooth I'm using right now works perfectly for Note 2 and also looks awesome in the car with a blue glow light
Anyone know of a good quality usb charging cable that will charge the phone at full power, isn't super expensive, and is longer than the stock one? The one that comes with this phone is just too short for me. I even tried my galaxy nexus usb cable, but it the phone says it is charging at a slower rate.
I'm using my Charge's cable with the LG adapter and the charging is quick as heck. BTW, I went from the Charge to GNex to G2 as well lol. Loved each upgrade!!

Quality is awesome and they are about 1.5m long. Stable for data and charging. :good:
I'm just using a cheap USB extension cable inbetween the LG charger and stock usb cable. Works fine, charges fast, doesn't give the "slow charge" notification.
I agree with the USB extension cable. I really dislike the durablity of micro USB, so I would rather use the stock cable with an extension than a cheaper built long cable.

I have an HP Touchpad, and it comes with a cable that looks identical to this. When I try to charge my phone with it, I get the "not compatible" message and charging is disabled to prevent damage... The cable may be different on the inside, but I would think the tablet cable would allow faster charging than the phone.
Alright... so far I have come across 3 different charging scenarios.
Charging with fading red LED - fast charge
Charging with white LED - medium charge
Charging with white LED + message "slow charge" - slow charge
I hope my interpretation is correct. So far I'm using my 2A original Asus charger from transformer prime and USB2.0 Palm-pre cable (which I posted above) and I'm getting fast charge (red glows, super speed). Now I only have this setup at work.. so I'm bearing with medium charge at home.
Trying not to use the original charger/cable, so I can have high resell value

Yeah seems like usb 3.0 cables have an extra connector that is not compatible with the G2. Can you possibly confirm that the cable you recommend will charge at full speed with the OEM LG charger? I'm wondering if it's either the charger itself that needs a certain cable or if there is something specific to the cable itself like the gauge of wire that is affecting charging speed.
I think you have to use the charger> 1.5A with good cable

Alright.. one thing I can confirm is that the charging speed depends on the charger.. not the cable.
I tried my fave Palm pre cable which I recommend into a slow charger and the message "slow charging" did come up.
And I also used this cable to the port that gives me medium speed.. and true enough, it was charging with white light, without the "slow charging" message. It is clearly following the charger, not the cable.
Electrically I don't see how cable should affect this. I know Samsung devices charges faster if the data+ and data- pins are shorted. Not sure about these LG ones. However, charging happens simply on the +/-5V lines.. it can't get any more complex than this.

I just tested my McKal 2.1A charger, S3 original charger 1A and HTC original 1A charger.
All of these did not say slow charging, but they didn't have the glowing red LED (fast charging) either.
I guess I'm lucky I have my Asus transformer prime charger to get fast charging..
I know this Asus charger is a USB3 one, BUT only Asus propriety cable for the Prime tablet uses the USB3 pins. I'm sure that my cable is not a USB3 one.
I would like to know specifically a charger I can buy on Amazon prime preferably, that will fast charge... (car charger) I don't want to guess... so who has one that works- that you own and use and KNOW works.

I hate to argue with you, but that's not what I am seeing here.
Using the LG charger and cable, I get fast charge.
Using the LG charger and any other cable, it immediately gives me slow charge. I've tried about five different USB cables. A BlackBerry branded one, a Duracell one, the white Amazon Kindle one, an old HTC one, and my old GNex cable. The only one that gives me fast charge is the LG supplied cable.
I bought a USB power dongle that has selectable modes of operation (Samsung charge, Apple charge, and "data pass-through") and will deliver 2.1 amps from a standard USB port. It's Chinese made so I know there might be danger of blowing the power on a USB port, but it's what I've got to test with. I can't get this phone to fast charge in any mode at all. With the GNex, it charges fast. With my iPad, no sweat.
I can confirm this. Charging speed definitely depends on the cable. Here it's the same as with you - the only cable that delivers full charging speed (approx. 1600mAh according to BMW) is the supplied LG cable. The worst one (100mAh) is an old Kindle cable. All other cables I have are somewhere between that. None is "faster" than 1000mAh. The main visible difference between the LG cable and the other cables is the thickness. The LG cable is the most thickest. From my other cables, the ones that reaches approx. 1000mAh are also quite thick (but not as thick as the LG cable).
Then I received my free LG PD233 Photo Printer today (amazon preorder offering). It comes with a 1200mAh charger (the G2's charger has 1800mAh) and a very similar looking cable. It's a bit shorter and white. With this cable I have the same full charging performance.
So obviously LG spend some more cents on better-quality cables. However, given that there are plenty of high-power wall and car chargers (with 2000mAh and up) available on the market, one should assume that there should also be cables available that can be used with this chargers. I just didn't managed to find one yet.
I use a USB extension cable to charge the phone battery takes 5 hours, while normal rechargeable battery takes only 2 hours

I completely agree, I've also noticed is that the LG supplied cable is unusually thick gauge wire compared to other micro usb cables. It's 20 gauge wiring and fairly short, which means that it has extremely low resistance to current. I mean unusual, in that I literally cannot find any micro usb cables that thick for sale and I have been searching online. Part of the problem is that cables are usually not listed online in terms of the gauge of wire, which combines with the fact that micro usb cables that thick aren't common, yet. That's probably the reason that no cables that people are trying are working with the stock lg charger at full charge.
If anyone can find or knows where to buy 20 AWG micro usb cables or thicker, please post the source here.
The cable for the G2 is a lower gauge because of the higher amperage charge rate. Which is why the GNex (what i upgraded from too) cable charges slower, its only guaged to be sufficient enough to carry a .15A charge rate. The G2 charge rate is .3A, hence the reason why they used a larger cable.
So, the G2 can recognize the resistance and slow down charging on lower-gauge cables it seems? How very UA-approved of them...
Now, the hunt is on to find heavy gauge micro USB cable...
Perhaps this?

I've been looking for a 24/20 AWG micro USB cable for a while now. I haven't been able to find one.
Interesting find you guys..
Guess I was wrong after all. Also something to note is that with my fast charging cable directly connected to the phone, all is well. When I run it through my Samsung S4 charging dock, it slows down.
Perhaps it's time to email LG about this? Would be a valuable question..
Also, I still stand by the fact that my palm-Pre cable is capable of fast charging, at least with my Asus transformer prime charger. I haven't even started using the original charger/cable..
This is the exact package which I ordered:

I've managed to find some chargers (both car and wall) that will charge with 1800mA (according to Galaxy Charging Lite app).
I have not managed to find an aftermarket cable that will charge at more than 1amp. Anyone know of an aftermarket cable that actually is capable of 1800mA? I've tried nGear and monoprice, and while they are very well constructed cables, they will only charge at 1amp or less with the n7100
Thanks for the help in advance, but please only respond to this if you've actually tested the cable with with the Galaxy Charging app or a current meter of some sort. I'm not interested in cables that only work anecdotally.

I'm breaking your rules (gasp) but as far as I'm aware, it's not the cable that manages the charge, it's the power adapter that feeds the usb, right? I've used all sorts of random cables on my travels for work, but always sticking to my 2+ amp output charger, and they've always worked.

Find a very short cable and you'll see rates up to 2100 ma (as measure by battery monitor widget). I use the short usb cable that came with my jambox combined with the the phones stock charger. The charger gets so hot due to the high current that I worry if it might burn out. The cable is very short, like 6 inches. I use this one when i need a quick bump before going out.
At this low of voltage plus high current, the shielding on most cables is not enough to protect against the voltage fluctuations caused by the high magnetic field. The longer the cable the more shielding is needed. Additionally, the cable shielding gets less effective as the cable gets older due to general wear. My original usb cable can only due around 740 - 1250ma, where it used to do 1800ma when new nearly 2 years ago.
If you could find a cable where there the positive and negative wires are separated in parallel strands like traditional AC power cords, it would also help. I have a cheap charger with built in cord like this and it charges consistently fast.

Most USB cables will work with the charger, but some cables (usually longer or smaller gauge wires) will restrict the charge to a lower amperage. I still haven't quite figured out how the phone knows what cable is being used, because, realistically, in a simple DC circuit, the consequence of using a cable that is too small is heating up or burning out. A cable that is too small alone will not prevent too much amperage from going through itself. This is why they invented fuses. Somehow the phone detects the gauge/length of cable being used and restricts the amperage being pulled from the charger by changing its own resistance on the circuit.

I suspect you're right. The impedance of a cable is the only thing that would change over a period of time that would result in a cable that could once pull 2A to start pulling less than that. Still, it would be nice to have a list of chargers/cables that consistently pull 2A before dropping $15-$30 on one of them. There exists such a list on this forum, but it is filled with comments like "It's good enough for me", without any real data as to what performance they are getting. Hence my rules above.
The charge rate depends on your kernal not the cable. I use Agni and get over 2 amp charges from a USB cable I paid 12 cents shipped for on eBay.
I purchased this cable about two weeks ago and it delivers!! I can charge my 9300mah Zero Lemon battery from 0-100 in just under 4 hours. Stock battery in about 1.5-2hrs. Of course I'm using a 2.1 amp charger, but NONE of my other cables come close. I'm averaging 1800-1900mah charge rate with it. Next highest rate cord only gets about 1200 max. I plan on ordering 2-3 more. $5 and change with PRIME.

Thank you! This is exactly the type of review I was looking for!
:laugh:
Check this out. http://voyager8.blogspot.com/2013/04/how-to-choose-good-usb-data-and.htmlI found it while looking for the 6ft cable I used to use until it shorted from heavy use (bending a lot) and I got a pack of 10 short flat wire style 3ft cables. My 6ft one has a ferrite end and printed on it: 28agw/1p and 26awg/2c. It could handle 2A just fine, but this requires any wall outlet adapter that can output that amperage. The oem outlet adapter that comes with the phone says 2.0A output, but you can fine any 'reliable' one that has 2.0A output.
if the original cable is not 1800mA, there must be a reason
Get one of these

some fake cable limit current.
Got similar problems as the OP. I wanted to charge my phone in my car and using the phone as a navigation device without depleting the battery (which occured a few time).
Tried several usb cables, even did some mods like shorting the white and green data wire in the cabel at the phone side, but that all didn't help.
Then i came to Kopi who sells usb cables which can deliver a full current.

Bought a few for 6 dollar each and am now a happy camper.

I just saw it. Why don't you email them and ask about availability? I had contact with Victor Leung ([email protected]).
So I am back again asking about power.
Since switching to my Nexus 5x I have had to redo all of my power supplies. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on the Google wall options but now I have a request for something portable.
What I am looking for is a battery pack that can output the 3amps to quickly charge the phone, I dont really care if it charges quickly itself. The reason being is I have a solar panel that can push 1-2 amps and I was planning on strapping it to the back of the bike or leaving it on the tent to charge the battery over time and then using the battery to charge the phone.
I actually just purchased this

I got it for $21..99 on a lightening deal. Haven't tried it yet, but it outputs 3amps
I have an Anker Powercore 21000mAH external battery, using a USB A to C cable, Ampere reports charge rates up to approx 1700mAH. The lock screen reports charging rapidly.
The cable is a Pecham one, It appears to be good quality, nice and thick, braided cable and a positive fit at the 5x end. I was happy with the charging speed, having just read the google cable reviews thread not so sure.....

Ill be curious to see what you get. My concern is they dont mention the specific output of the ports, just the overall 3 amp. I suspect its split across teh two ports in some fashion like most (where they can do 2 amps on a single port but then 1.5 across both)
I have a 2 amp charger but I am hoping for a 3 to get that max performance. The idea is I could use the phone for music, navigation, etc on the motorcycle and then get a very quick top up while breaking for lunch, etc.
You need a type C connector at both ends.
A USB type-C to type-A cable cannot and should not allow charging at more than 2A (0.5A for USB 2.0 standard), because that is the most allowed in the USB spec as mentioned by the Google engineer that's been reviewing Type-C cables on Amazon. In order to support 3A rapid charging you would need a battery pack with a type-C port on it that supports rapid charging. Even if a type-A port is capable of supplying 3+ amps, the phone will only charge at up to about 1.7A without the type-C port at both ends. I don't know of any battery packs that support the type-C spec yet, although I'm sure they're coming.
That is why I am asking. I dont care if it charges itself at 3amps because my sources wouldnt provide that anyway. Im looking for the battery pack itself to pump out 3 amps. Im holding out for one of those and until then I will work along with my existing ones.

Neat thing about this, you can use the OEM 5v 3a charger to charge it. Interesting to see if it charges faster than other options.
mysterious posted in the other thread that he/she ordered it. Im waiting with baited breath to hear the results. This might be the perfect all-rounder (dont really need the other ports but they dont hurt anything).
Could charge with my solar panels, could charge with the stock adapter and hopefully the phone quickly on a lunch break.
I love how none of these products ship to Canada, except the official Google stuff which is no out of stock.
[Review] Tronsmart QC 2.0 Dual & Quad Port Car chargers, 3 Port QC 2.0 Wall Charger
Tronsmart Quick Charge 2.0 Product Reviews
Disclaimer: I was sent these items in exchange for an unbiased review.
I will update this OP with any changes, issues, or other information as it comes up.
Tronsmart 3 Port 42W Quick Charge 2.0 Wall Travel Charger
Overview
I have accumulated a lot of devices that for better or worse need to be charged during the day sometimes all at once. For this reason, I usually carry a small battery pack or multi-port wall charger, along with some cables, adapters, and various other things. Tronsmart made a nice compact wall charger that is ideal for people who travel or on the go. I usually have a mullti-port charger or two at home (Tronsmart Titan 90W 5 port hub on my desk), and another multi-port hub on my nightstand. I always need more ports for one reason or another hence why I like having the most compact, powerful chargers that I can.
What’s in the box
-Tri-port charger
-Documentation
-Micro USB cable
Build & Design
Tronsmart makes one of my favorite looking chargers out there. The edges have a glossy finish to them that leads you into matte colored body. On one side you will see Tronsmart’s logo along with a small LED light that will light up to indicate when you’re charging. If you look at the opposite side the rated inputs/outputs for each port are specified along with a label for which ports have VoltIQ, and QC 2.0. One of the best features of this charger besides its 3 ports is the folding plug which makes it ideal for traveling/on the go.
Charging
The Quick Charge 2.0 port will allow you to charge any compatible QC 2.0 enabled device at a range of voltages/rates depending on how low the battery is. I was able to charge my S7 Edge at 9V/1.67A just like the stock Samsung Adaptive Fast Charger does. Since the S7 Edge is only rated for 9V/1.67A (15.03W) it won’t charge at a faster rate than that no matter how powerful the charger. The other two ports use VoltIQ which is another way of saying it will tell the device to charge at it’s maximum 5V rate up to 2.4A. I tested this with my S7 Edge and was able to get ~5V/1.7A which is the same output as the factory charger at the battery level I tested. Since this charger is rated for 42W which means each port can output its maximum rate simultaneously for maximum charging efficiency with multiple devices.
Charging breakdown by port
QC 2.0: 5V/2A, 9V/2A, 12V/1.5A
2x Standard Port (with VoltIQ): 5V/2.4A each
Summary
This is yet another great charger from Tronsmart (I have a lot of others that were reviewed as well) that has a nice overall design. This charger has a lot to offer in a small package coupled with a solid build that should last for a long time.
Tronsmart 4 Port Quick Charge 2.0 54W Car Charger
Overview
There is always a time that I need to charge things as I mentioned above when outlets are limited. I have a dash camera in my car that occupies one of my power outlets, so I only have 1 other easily accessible place to plug in a charger. When I go on road trips it’s nice to be able to charge my phone as well as my wife’s along with a tablet or two thanks to the wide array of ports offered with this charger.
What’s in the box
-Tronsmart Quad Port 54W Car Charger
- 3.3[ft] micro USB cable
-Documentation
Build & Design
The charger is made from plastic, but it has a nice texture to it just like the tri-port wall charger. I’ve owned and used another Tronsmart car charger (Type-C/Type-A) since December without any issues. It has really come in handy over the past couple of months thanks to its versatility, just like this one will. While this charger is quite large it packs a punch with its 4 ports while still compact for what it offers. It’s not easy to fit a large number of ports in a charger that has to fit in a confined area, but I like the overall way Tronsmart designed this one. I had no issues fitting the charger in my car, and using all of the ports, but that depends on where your outlet is located.
Charging
I tested each of the ports simultaneously with 3 of my phones, and a battery pack to ensure the charger worked as intended. I had no issues charging all 4 devices from the charger making this ideal for anyone that needs to make use of their car charger.
Charging breakdown by port:
Ports 1,2,3: 5V/2.4A (Max)
Port 4 (QC 2.0) Quick charge 5V/2A, 9V/2A , 12V/1.5A (Max)
Summary
This large 4 port charger might not be for everyone, but if you need to power a large amount of devices simultaneously than it’s an ideal choice due to its large power output.
Tronsmart 36W Dual Port Quick Charge 2.0 Car Charger
Overview
This charger is a much more compact, but still versatile dual port QC 2.0 enabled (on both ports) car charger. The overall quality/materials remain the same as the previous 4 port car charger which is a good thing. I switched from my Type-C/Type-A 33W car charger to this one in order to see how it works, and because I can still charge both my S7 Edge and Nexus 6P from it. So far over the past couple days of using this one I haven’t encountered any issues, but I will update the OP if I do.
What’s in the box
-Tronsmart Dual Port 36W Car Charger
- 2x 3.3[ft] 20AWG micro USB cables
-Documentation
Build & Design
The ports are colored (green or blue usually indicate QC 2.0 on Tronsmart chargers) while the back ports are the standard VoltIQ. For this particular one, both ports are green which is indicative of a QC 2.0 charger. There is ample spacing between both ports to accommodate any size cable that I have including: Tronsmart, Choetech, Aukey, Samsung, Google, i-Orange, Asus, Anker and many others. I haven’t found a set of cables that won’t work side-by-side in this charger. Unlike other chargers, this one doesn’t sit flush with the outlet which to me is a good thing. I always find it hard to remove the chargers that don’t protrude slightly, so I appreciate that part of the design.
Charging
Each port is capable of a 18W output which is the maximum you will ever need on a QC 2.0 enabled device. The S7 Edge can only take 15.03W (9V/1.67A), so this charger will fast charge it at the same rate as the Samsung Adaptive Fast Charger. I tested both ports with my multi-meter to ensure they lived up to their ratings.
Charging breakdown by port:
5V/2A, 9V/2A , 12V/1.5A
Summary
I have no issues with the overall design or build of this car charger, plus with the added versatility of a second QC 2.0 port it has a lot to offer. Not all chargers offer their full power output while charging multiple devices, but thankfully this one does. I don’t see any reason not to recommend it because it’s been great.
Tronsmart Micro USB Cable 6 Pack (20AWG)
Overview
I always need more cables because for some reason I either misplace them, or forget to bring them with me. I like how Tronsmart offers a large pack of cables (6 in this set) in varying sizes depending on what you might need. I usually keep the shortest one (1[ft]) in my backpack to go along with an external battery pack I carry with me. The longer ones usually find their way onto my desk or night stand because it’s nice to have the extra length so I can keep all of my devices separate & not clustered together while charging.
What’s in the box
-1[ft] micro USB cable
-2x 3.3[ft] micro USB cables
-3x 6[ft] micro USB cables
Build & Design
These cables have a larger gauge wire (20AWG) which should decrease the resistance thus allowing for less current drop in the longer variants. The connectors work well with any of my 10+ S7E cases, and they are slightly smaller physically than the Samsung one. You won’t have any issues bending these like some higher gauge cables which makes wrapping them up for storage easy.
Charging
I tested each cable length via my multi-meter to see if there was any current/voltage drop while charging my phone. I did not see any measurable drop even for the longer 6[ft] cable, so you should be able to fast charge your phone with any of them without sacrificing cable length.
Summary
I’ve actually owned a pack of these for a while now before receiving this set, and I’ve enjoyed using them. I haven’t had any of them break, fail, or otherwise suffer from flaws during my 5 months using the previous set. I enjoy the large variety of sizes offered because it allows you use a cable that suits your needs rather than one that’s too long/short.

A comprehensive review, the chargers' design are nice, I like the round edges and corners.
Gold-plated cables seems high-end, I will search and try one of those chargers & cables.
yes it is a pity that XDA doesn't like to paste the links in the topics but what if we would google them and find them ebay or amazon and they are clones or fake.
so when connected in the car with 12V it gives 1.5A to instead of 2.4A?
Is this as good as the ones from Aukey?

It is unfortunate, and as much as I would like to post them I can't without having the OP get locked like some others I've written up. Even when I buy products and link them it raises flags for some reason, bht thags neither here nor there
The input rating if the charger is different than the output. I charged a AC 2.0 batter pack at 12V/1.5A which is the highest 12V rate that the charger is rated for. I have a Power Partners 30W single port QC 2.0 charger somewhere that will output somewhere around that in terms of the 12V but I've never tested it.
so when used in a car with 12v sigarette lighter plug it will never get higher then 1.5A or is it only this one? Are there other chargers that get more amps though that 12v port then this one?
The reason I ask is because when my phone is connected to the 12v car charger it does not get charged while using it with max brightness, gps, 4g, 2 or 3 apps at the same time, ...

As I mentioned the input current will be at 12V from the car, but it can also output at 12V via the QC standard. I can charge 2 phones (1 on each port with multimeters connected) to see he max current I can draw which should be the rated 33W if I recall correctly.
Great info you have here. lol
