Would someone please recommend a functional battery charger for the extended thunderbolt battery?
I have purchased 3 Seidio battery chargers, and they have all been defective.
Thanks in advance.
I got one of the cheap ones I got with two hyperion batteries on Amazon and it works great with the extended.

Yeah I got one of the cheap ebay ext batteries with the charger that can be plugged in with either the usb or straight ac. Works ok so far. It was only a 1700 mah.
i have a couple of these and they work great for just about anything:
Belkin USB Wall Charger
you just use the USB cable that came with your phone and plug it in to that.

My favorite accessory for my samsung fascinate was the spare battery with its own dedicated charger. It could charge in the house or in the car due to its micro usb input for power. I often left this in my vehicle and just swapped batteries out there.
Ive scoured the internet and have failed to find one for the thunderbolt as they all seem to require an AC charger. Have any of you found one got the thunderbolt? Now I have 7 oem thunderbolt batteries and need a way to charge them. Especially since I'm headed to Bonnaroo....

going to bonnaroo with 7 batteries. haha thats great man but nah I have not seen anything like that. I snagged one of those el cheapo china wall battery charger with built in USB port (for charging another device) and that works great. But seriously if you have 7 batteries i dont see the need for a charger you speak of, sounds cool though.
ahahahaha that's so many damn batteries
I bought one on eBay that has the electrical plugs that fold into it and also has a plug for a USB cable.
I haven't tried the cable part though.

hi firstly i bought this chargrr r
ebay.com.sg/itm/260922341954?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
its a geniune charger for the batteries of the note and it works on my original battery and 2 batteries i bought made in china with no brand for the note.
next i buy the 2700mah anker batts with the unicersal charger.
amazon.com/Batteries-SGH-I717-International-Anker-Multi-purpose/dp/B007JSSNHI/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top/191-7690781-5534019
the problem is the geniune charger cannot charge the anker batteries even though when i place them inside the charger it lights up to show its charging but after 5 hours of charging when i put the anker battery inside my note it shows 60% which means it didn't charge. the universal charger charges the anker batts fine since it came with them.
my geniune charger works cos it charges up the original battery. pls help.8
I have two Samsung vehicle chargers, both have failed, one the micro-usb does not work with my note, but is fine with the portable batter charger.
The other simply does not receive any current from the vehicle, even after a careful cleaning and spray with contact cleaner.
Never had these issues with any other vehicle charger.
Mine isn't the vehicle charger it's the geniune charger from samsung.
Do i need to list out the stats?
your samsung oem charger is designed to only charge the samsung battery.
But, there is a mod to the charger that you can do to fix this. Its a very simple solder.
I trying to find where I read this then I will post the link

Actually this isn't what i was looking for.
If you read my original post again i'm talking about the genuine charger not being able to charge 3rd party anker batteries. What you're showing here is using a 3rd party charger on my phone which isn't what i'm looking for.
I want the charger aka battery charger to be able to charge anker batteries. It has nothing to do with the phone itself. My phone charges the batts fine.
Hey guys,
Has anyone found a charger for an external battery that works well? I'm just talking about the 2100-2300 variety. Thanks guys!

I'm a bit confused. Would you mean external chargers, extra batteries or http://www.amazon.com/5600mAh-Exter...-66&keywords=samsung+galaxy+s3+mobile+charger such as this? Perhaps even an extended battery...
I have two.
First us the Zagg Sparq. Doubles as both a portable battery charger and a wall charger. Looks just like the old model Apple airport express wifi routers but in black. I get about 1.5 full charges from its battery but I never really go back to full, usually just a boost to about half from empty is how I use it. Has usb ports so you need to keep a cable with it but it charges anything with a usb charge interface. Got a set of 3" cables for mini, micro, and apple dock connector to keep the mess in my bag down.
Second one is a much smaller no name device with a micro usb plug sticking out one side. Got it relatively cheap. Only has enough to charge the phone back up to about 75-85%. But it is good for an end of the day boost.
A second battery would be better in most cases but these chargers are more generic so can use them on other toys too. Bought them to get an extra day or two of power when tenting.

This one charges phone or external battery or both and uses a regular micro usb for mains input so can be used in vehicle as well.

Hey guys,
My bad for not clarifying. I'm talking about the wall charger for extra external batteries

I just got this one its got this one for $20 off amazon its 2600mah fits nicely in your pocket so you can charge your phone while its in your pocket. A couple of problems with it is that it only came with a USB to micro USB cable but not AC adapter. It charges my phone pretty quickly but it only charged my phone about 70% before shutting off of course I was using my phone the whole time but it still should have had more of a charge in it. Also the unit its self takes forever to charge around 6 hours! But overall not a bad buy for $20.

Does anyone know of a decent (1Amp) charger for a spare stock/extended battery that is actually working well? I've used the ebay cheapos and one from Hyperion[http://amzn.com/B00851MEB4] but they are either take forever to charge(0.5A or less output current) or falsely claim the battery is full whereas the phone says otherwise?
I presume the Samsung charging system will be a good fit, but i'm not sure if it will take extended battery.
bump? anyone know of any 1A chargers for a spare battery?
I bought the OEM battery kit. It comes with a spare battery and a charger along with a built in dock. The dock doesn't charge your phone only the battery . It's about $35 . Not bad for an OEM battery and charger .

I use NewTrent 6600 mAh that has 2 USB outputs one at 1A and one at 2.1A. It also gets charged with a MicroUSB cable, so one cable for charging and providing power, very nice.

So you charge using the 1 amp or 2.1amp?

I have used a charger that looked almost identical to that one for my Evo 4G extended batteries before I upgraded to the Galaxy S III. It worked well so I would expect this one to work for the GSIII batteries.
I ended up ordering this one to use with my GSIII batteries. It arrives today.
Hey let us know if this one charges to 100%

It looks like the answer is: No!
I charged my battery (Stock Samsung battery) overnight. This morning the charger was indicating that the charging was complete. When I swapped out the batteries the phone is reporting 93% (4110mV). I am going to try again tonight with my other battery (also stock).
Samsung makes an official spare battery charger/dock that comes with a spare battery. You can find it on amazon for around $35.
I got Momax U. Pack Charger Pack ( Charge + X-LEVEL PDA Battery ) from NCIX.COM....is better then the samsung one.
Finally after waiting a few weeks, I finally found an alright priced battery. Found it on eBay with free shipping, $32, OEM new spare lg battery. I still can't wait for the zerolemon. I think it's just horrible that the prices for this batteries are this high compared to anker and such.
Can you share a link please?

Sure thing! I won't receive the spare battery till tomorrow but I did receive the dock with spare charger built in yesterday.
The dock is is visually pleasing except for the company sticker that I peeled off pretty easily. It was able to charge my phone with Supcase without problems in 2hours from 20% Build quality seems solid. I'm pretty happy with it. Once I get my spare batteries tomorrow I'll test to see how well it will charge my phone and spare together.

Its worth it I think. Apparently the ones that have gripes with it are from M8 owners? But honestly for $16.99 it's pretty good. Fits the LG G3 with Supcase very nicely. Its hard enough to find a spare charging unit for our phones let alone the spare batteries.
Update:
I have had this dock with spare battery charger for a few days now. Been charging my spare batteries along with my phone and it's safe to say that it does well charging my phone and spare batteries completely to 100% so happy with my purchase

Zerolemon is around the corner, why not wait for that.
Just got this one today. Another charger that charges to 100%
Fast charging: The battery holder can charge at a speed of up to 5V 1A (most universal chargers charge at a speed below 500mA).
Smart charger: Automatically recognizes an inserted battery's voltage and polarity. An LED indicator keeps you informed about the charging status of your battery.

I have been looking for an inexpensive charger. Does this one hold the G3 battery tightly? I've had similar wall chargers and if the battery does not fit snugly, it slides away from the charging poles and does not charge.
Edit: I watched an amazon customer video review, it appears to hold a battery pretty securely.
I may pick this up. Thanks for the link.
