All of a sudden it's become $2.83. Unless you want to buy from a seller with a 77% approval rating. Also, no current is listed, so, thanks but no thanks.

I ordered anyways since it was so cheap. Should receive it next week and will post how it works.

HTC AC Adapter

Anyone know how to get my hands on a second HTC-brand AC Adapter for the EVO that plugs into N/A wall outlet? (MODEL TC U250)
Would like to know this as well since it works reliably and is high power.
I like the HTC branded one too for it's power and size but here is a really good travel charger to consider.
http://shop.sprint.com/NASApp/onlin...ID=PGU3838R_C&topPageNumber=0&subPageNumber=0
It has a battery built in so it can also function as a backup battery when you're traveling and need a quick charge. With a 25% off for being a premier customer it's $29.99.

I'm pretty sure I saw some on Amazon
I found a kit for the iPod and iPhone that provides a 5V/1A car and home charger that allows the device to work properly (no wonkiness with the screen). They're both USB plugs and then you plug in a microUSB cable that you've provided (it comes with an iPod cord). The phone doesn't unfortunately recognize them as anything but USB BUT they are higher current so they should charge faster than the typical devices.
It's made by Philips and says "Fast charging at home & in the car" on the front. The part number is DLM2264/17.
This is the same thing on Philips' website (though on this link it's branded DLO and the one I bought is not).
http://www.p4c.philips.com/cgi-bin/dcbint/cpindex.pl?ctn=DLM2264D/17&scy=us&slg=en
I believe it was $35. I found it at Staples.
i was looking for one too and found this seller on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/HTC-Desire-O...Accessories&hash=item255c9d25ac#ht_2798wt_733
they are OEM HTC models and dirt cheap (US $9 inc. shipping). just placed an order!
Enjoy waiting on that ac adapter for a month.
I've gotten two from Florida, took three days:

Recommendation for a portable auxiliary power source

I'm looking for a "small and lightweight" auxiliary battery or charger that I can use when I have no access to an AC outlet to preserve the phone's battery charge. A small device that I can connect to the microUSB port of the Captivate with a short USB cable while I watch my movies. Preferably with a built-in rechargeable battery, but would consider a device that can take AA or AAA rechargeables. I know I can get a couple extra phone batteries with a charger for a few $$$ in eBay, but I want something I can take out of my briefcase and in a second connect it to the phone without the inconvenience of having to remove my Amzer Argyle case and the back cover of the phone. I'm afraid I'm going to stretch my phone case out shape by taking it off and putting it on, mess up (loosen) the locking mechanism of the back cover or will end up, somehow, bending the simulated carbon fiber back cover. Not to mention the fear of dumping my coffee on the internals of the phone while it sits with the back exposed on the food tray of a plane/train/bus or on whichever surface I happen to be having my coffee. The icing on the cake would be if this auxiliary power source could also serve as a phone stand.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
I ordered one of these - there are other variations; but this is 4000mAh (so almost 3 times our current battery), The USB port is a full 1A, and will also charge my camcorder battery. They do make one with 2 USB ports:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0029U2WTG/ref=oss_product
It was $25 when i ordered it last week - now it is more.
Tekkeon MP1550
I've been using this to charge several usb devices on the go. i had it for several years now. its better if you pair it with sanyo eneloops.
its $14.99 @ newegg $22.30 on amazon
Many thanks for your suggestions... but is there anything smaller? That Energizer XP4000 looks like an excellent option at $25, but at $50 it is a little too big an expensive.
Edit:
I just ran across the Duracell Powersource Mini.... Anyone using this with a Captivate? Also, does anyone have any details on the specs of the battery in this powerpack? I could not even find any details in the Duracell site.
Amazon
Duracell
I also found this one, but for $1.49 I don't know if it'll end up killing the phone. But it could be nice rechargeable AA batteries.

I won't buy anything that I can't find tech specs on - so the Duracell unit could be 1000mAh or 3000mAh - for the price i would say it is around 1000. The 2 AA chargers have to up the 3V to 5V and so the best available power is about 1000 mAh (i base this on the altoids chargers specs using 2 2500mAh AA batteries).
If all you want is a 1000 mAh in a small form factor, Target sells one (the Energizer XP 1000) in the store for about $20 with a bunch of tips. Keep in mind that our batteries are 1500 mAh so you won't get a full charge.

The Duracell appears to be the exact same device as the Xantrex Technologies 852 2051 Xpower Mobile Mini. If this is the case, then it appears to be a 3000mAh device. I like this charger because it has a built-in mini USB connector and a separated regular USB which makes it very convenient. I wonder who the OEM is... Duracell or Xantrex?
I also came across the IOGEAR Gear Juice Mobile, but based on some of the users' reviews it appears to have have 2000mAh rechargeable battery.
I saw that one that looked like the Duracell but i could not be sure. Wherever you buy make sure you can return if it is not what you want.
It seems hard to find much that is 1500 mah or larger without getting to big.

It is good enough;
The good news is that Xantrex makes both and they are 3Ah. The only down side is that you are limited to .5A charge - same as USB. I picked the Energizer as it is capable of 1A output, although our phones only draw about 700 mA max.
Wait one other downside - miniUSB not microUSB so it won't fit our phones without an adapter. This must be an "old" product as the spec sheet says it fits "New Motorola phones such as RAZR and ROKR" neither are made any more.
Given that the Xantrex appears to be an old product I have continued to look around for an auxiliary power source. I found the Kensington K38056US which has a microUSB and a MiniUSB output connectors and uses a regular built-in USB connector to charge. So the element of convenience is very high given that it can also be charged with the Captivate charger. Only thing is that the battery is 1200 mAh, but it appears to have an output of up to 1000 mAh. Amazon has it for $30. The specs sheet says that it started shipping on 5/1/10 so this one is a "fairly" new device.
In terms of power I have not yet found anything that matches the Energizer XP4001 for its size, but it is a little heavier than the Kensington (5.4 onz vs. 4.0 ) and you also have to carry an additional AC adapter.
The search continues...

hey...sorry for irrelevant posting...but your name sounds familiar ..! are you from Pune?
btw Splash Intense 5400mAh should work with captivate, 5400mAh is lot of power, i guess it can recharge captivate at least 3 times considering its 1500mAh battery..
Well, I just received the Duracell Powersource Mini which I ordered from Amazon as it's on sale for $19.50 down from the MSRP of 59.99. The [URL="http://www.amazon.com/Xantrex-Technologies-852-0251-XPower-Mobile/dp/B000R9T3T8/ref=pd_sim_ol_4"]Xantrex Xpower Mobile Mini [/URL]which is the same device is still selling for $45.50.
I added a music CD to my order as the Powersource Mini is eligible for free shipping on orders of $25+. Given the Powersource has a Mini-USB male connector and a regular USB female port built-in, I also got a shorter 2.5ft USB to Micro-USB cable from ebay for $2.99 to use with the Powersource Mini. (Also with free shipping and it fits perfectly in the Captivate) This short USB to Micro-USB cable will be used to charge my Captivate and the built-in Mini-USB connector will be used to charge my MP3 player and Camera. The Powersource Mini comes with a USB AC charger and a USB Vehicle DC charger adapter which gives me added flexibility.
The only issues I have found, so far, is that the DC input port of the Powersource is proprietary, so you always need to carry the 4.5ft USB charging cable and "possibly" the AC adapter. The USB AC adapter that comes with the Powersource is just a little bit bigger than the USB AC adapter that comes with the Captivate. A very negligible size difference, but I'd be afraid of using the Powersource AC adapter on the Captivate for prolonged periods of time as it "might" damage the phone. In the description of the AC Adapter of the Powersource it says that it is a AC/DC "Switching" Adapter. This "might" mean that it's designed specifically for the Powersource to switch off when it's fully charged. Also the output specs of the Powersource adapter are 5.5 volts 800mA compared to the 5.0 volts 700mA of the AC adapter that comes with the Captivate. I'd be nice if I only had to carry one AC adapter. Any thoughts on these USB AC/DC adapters being interchangeable?
Edit: In a previous post it was said that this device might be old because it had a Mini-USB instead of Micro-USB connector. A sticker on the device says that it was manufactured on 09/26/2008... So it is a bit old, but not extremely so.

Its only a 1500 mAh, but its pretty compact and it fits around your wrist.
Seems more convenient than a typical power source.

Did you ever buy this? I'm considering one for some travel and wondered how it worked out.

I have both the XP2000 and XP8000 and both work very well.
I can't link but I bought a "Satechi icel 5200mAh" batter extender off amazon. It will charge my phone 3+ times before I need to recharge it. I use it to travel. Works great with all my portable devices as long as they use a USB charger. If I could take pictures I would show the size against a phone. I've put them both in a jacket pocket before without worry

I have a portable charger with capacity of 1900mAh. Its lightweight Its output is 4.5 to 5.5v 800mA Max. Though the charge time is around 2 to 4 hours, it would be rite for your need and purpose. I am not sure of Thinkgeek, but if you can check gadget store Chinabuye, there are more ranges of power charging, you can check and choose the better one, I ordered it from them at reasonable rate.

Car charger?

Before this forum was made, I was trying to find a car charger that would actually work. The majority of the ones sold on Amazon are just micro USB chargers, which obviously don't work for the a100. I found this one on another forum, so I bought one:
mobile.walmart.com/ip/Car-Cord-Adapter-with-Polarity-Switch/15050431
But when I tried another similar wall charging product, I had to exchange my tablet for a new one because the battery stopped charging entirely. So my question is, is this product (with the proper voltage settings, of course) safe to use?
This is the thread I found the product on:
acertabletforum.com/forum/acer-a100-general-discussion/1168-car-charger-2.html
A few people there claim it works, but I trust xda a lot more. Can anyone help me out?
Thanks, and I'm anxiously awaiting, like everyone else, some custom roms on this nice little device.

Since I didnt get any responses, I decided to just try it, and it worked fine. So if anyone else was looking for a car charger, this one will do the job.

It seems that the eBay one is better. It has 3A output vs the 2A from Walmart.
If you are using the A100 in the car it is better to have a charger with a higher capacity.

Car charger specs
After several calls to Acer, I was able to have then confirm that the maximum voltage that should be applied to the A100 is 12 volts DC.
Your car is capable of producing 13 to 15 volts DC while running. Failure to use a REGULATED 12 volt charger could fry your tablet. Your tablet will draw aprox 1.5-1.8 amps while running AND charging. Anything that is capable of delivering 2 amps or better will be fine. A charger rated at 5 amps will Not ham your unit, it is just capable of delivering the required power with room to spare.
NEVER attempt to charge via USB, there is NO physical connection between the USB port and the battery charging circuit.
I have not been able to get the size specifications for the charging plug from Acer. If I can find my caliper kit I will measure mine and post it here.
Hope this helps.

i just bought an extra wall charger and use inverter. i have a 800watts inverter lying around. and it works fine.
So does anyone have a lead on a 12 volt regulated car charger?
I used an 85 watt converter and watched a 90 minute movie with no problems except the converter was rather hot when I pulled it out of the lighter socket.
I picked up a +12V voltage regulator from Radio Shack and soldered it into a cheap Chinese charger I found on Ebay, and it works perfectly. The regulator is only rated at 1.5A, but I'm never using my A100 while it's charging in the car.
Considering the minimal voltage change, I doubt that additional .3 amp draw would overheat the regulator anyhow.

Cheap Charger on ebay

I recently bought one of these chargers on ebay from tuttoit (12V 1.5A 18W AC HOME Charger Adapter for MOTOROLA XOOM 4G LTE 3G Wi-Fi - can't post link due to xda restrictions). The charger works OK (charges quite quickly in fact) but I've found my xoom cannot be used while this charger is plugged in! The screen become unusable and therefore I have to wait until I have finished charging before I can use my xoom again. I think it may be to do with the charger not earthing properly.
Also the black box on the charger gets very hot.
Just posting this info to help anyone thinking of buying this charger.
Further to my previous post: DO NOT BUY A CHARGER FROM TUTTOIT ON EBAY.
Mine died after a few weeks of use. They are cheap rubbish.
(That'll teach me to buy cheap off eBay )
This stinks that you experienced this...but for the most part...its pretty common these days.
I try to use OEM products whenever possible and pay a little extra. I had a bad experience with a non OEM laptop charger years ago...and it friend my motherboard and power supply unit on my Thinkpad - thankfully I was able to find a used MoBo and install myself for 35 bucks.

Good advice.
I took the broken one apart and the circuit board inside had been fried.
Yesterday I looked for a Motorola charger and couldn't find one, even on the Motorola website!
Ended up buying another one from Hong Kong but I think the quality is a bit better (fingers crossed).
What about Amazon?
http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Trav...8&qid=1344675498&sr=8-1&keywords=xoom+charger
Didn't think of Amazon and the price is about what I paid on eBay! D'oh.
Might buy one of theirs as well.
Thanx.
DO NOT BUY A CHEAP CHARGER FROM xiaoqinzhang2009 ON EBAY! Seller now known as micro-estore.
I did it again!
This second charger does the same as the first; you can't use the touchscreen while it is charging and it gets very hot.
I doubt these are made to Australian manufacturing standards.
I'm following tincbtrar's advice and going OEM from now on.

[How-To] Moto G wireless charging (Universal Qi Receiver)

I've received my universal Qi wireless receiver today. The receiver is smaller than I had thought and fits perfectly into the Moto G. Since our phone lacks internal preparation for Qi (like it can be found on the Samsung Note 2), the connection is made via a micro USB plug. The backdoor can still be clipped on without being disturbed by the Qi receiver pad or its flat band cable. Charging time should be about the about the same as charging the phone from a PC USB port that doesn't output more than 500mA.
This solution is obviously for those who don't need the phones usb port on a daily basis.
The adapter on the left picture (and in the video) is from ebay and is the one that arrived here first. I’ve changed the cable routing to remove the ugly bulge that was visible on my first picture. This adapter outputs a maximum of 500mA and can be purchased from ebay.
Make sure to purchase the "interface layout A, narrow interface up” variant.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/261348107126
17.Jan.2014 - The picture on the right shows an adapter purchased from DealExtreme, that arrived here yesterday. This adapter delivers up to 650mA and the flat band cable comes out of the lower side instead out of the backside which removes the need to bent over the cable.
http://dx.com/p/zy-408-wireless-charging-receiver-for-mobile-phone-micro-usb-black-259151
Both adapters work well, so don't worry if you've already bought the one I've first reviewed. (I have both version in use on different phones)
Here is a small video that shows me placing the receiver inside the Moto G:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2WPjw-WaCI
Update 13.02.2014
From my testing I can tell the following:
1. An unrooted Moto G needs to be screen locked (I use the pattern lock type) or it will refuse to charge due to the missing pins. You can unlock the screen while it is charging as long as you don't lift it from the qi charger. (tested on 4.3 and 4.4.2, DE and FR firmware)
2. Root in combination with dubidu's tool makes it more straightforward but is not required.

Thanks. I had looked on fleaBay and it looks like they all have the same packaging. I imagine any qi wireless charger thingy should work. In theory.
anyone know if this would work through an otterbox case? or I guess if this would even work with one due to the fact the part that plugs in sticks out a little bit...
I've bought it here:

The auction uses the same pictures as used in the amazon offer posted by JCBomb, might even be the same seller.
This is cool! I just hope there's like another way we can integrate that wireless charger.
Just saw your post at android.hilfe and started looking for some charger, it's indeed a neat solution.

Are u guys using this wireless QI receiver? I'm going to buy one next month, D: . Just for curiosity, how much time do u guys spend to get a full charge with the QI
Guys i found this one at dx.com

Those kind of product are not so great are chaging, basically it's almost the same power that if you charge through uSB = 500mA.
What you need to check is the charging value, sometime it's :
- 400mA or less (avoid it, will take ages to charge),
- 500mA (just like your regular USB charger),
- 1000mA (great ones, will charge just like a wall charger, twice as fast as the previous model).
So the one at DX is great, but they're cheaper on ebay, plus you can choose between Black or White - http://cgi.ebay.fr/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...eName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
This one was the cheapest (around £15) I could find and works fine.

wow, so cool :good:
Am I the only one thinking about finding the plug they use with all the pins intact and integrating a micro sd card into it for OTG storage? Wireless charging and storage, all in one, and fitting under a case.
I had that exact thought about two hours ago. Throw NFC in their while your at it.

I had actually started to do some verrrry preliminary research into something like it using a ribbon cable and another usb port, so you could plug the phone into a wall charger and have the usb/sd card piggybacked off the cable. Hadn't gotten very far though...job, kid, wife etc.......
Someone TAKE MY MONEY for it!! Especially since it seems we're all soon to be headed down the 'no sd card' path.
I just got a Moto G for my wife and Nokia Wireless Charging Plate DT900 is not working any ideas why ?
It's not working with one of the universal QI receivers? Have you try enabling the floating charging (see my post)

Hello.
The Moto G doesn't support Qi on its own, you'll need to rig it with an universal wireless Qi charging receiver.
You can buy them from ebay, dealextreme and some other china based stores. The first post contains a short installation video.
This one from dealextreme will work (Output up to 650mA):

as well as this one from ebay (Output up to 500mA):
make sure to purchase "interface layout A, narrow interface up)
