Just looking around and I found my s4 charger to have an output of 2A and my GNex has a 0.7A
Is there a way to see the amp going in to the phone? I bought a random eBay chargers as well and I want to test the power going in so I know which ones to keep and which to give away to people as spares.
Battery Monitor Widget Pro from Google Play. Works perfectly. I caution buying "random" chargers from ebay.. seeing more and more people with exploding batteries and charger ports being fried. Just use caution.

The one by 3c so the first one. And I get ones that match the output of the home charger or a couple of ahma (milliamps) less. Then it requires you to use the stock cable

Hey just so I recently got my GNex but the seller didn't supply me with the original charger and my HTC one and Verizon one fit very lose on the port. So after some time on Google search finally found what looks like the real thing off of Amazon. From the unboxings I've seen they look just like the real thing and it fits a lot better too.
Here are some pictures of them as well as a link to Amazon only ten dollars shipped. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...5AH3_4?ie=UTF8&m=ALV6DBOZR5AH3&n=&s=&v=glance
Took 4 or 3 days to get here.

They also send a little flash light/laser pointer thing.
I'm happy with it. The cable is the same size as the original one that comes in the box with the GNex so is short not any longer.
I just wanted to share in case you guys were looking for one like I was.

I was in the market for a new charger but settled for a blackberry charger for its 6ft cord. It charges slightly slower but I'd rather have a longer cord than a faster charge time.

Yeah the Verizon one I have is six feet but slow charge. This one is a 1a so the charging should be the same as the one in the box with the GNex. So the specs and everything match perfectly to the original one which is why I got it.

OK, so I bought this car charger, and it has 2 USB ports on it, A and B. A charges at 1.0a, and 5w. B port charges at 0.5a, and 2.5w. My phone has some charging issues where it uses too much power. My phone only works in port B, and lately I have to reboot my phone to get that to work. I was wondering if I could get port A to work with my phone? I know it works because my dad has the Note 2 and it works in port A. Thanks in advance.
First off this belongs in GNex accessories. Second there's no reason your phone isn't charging at 1A if everything is working correctly. Sounds like some kind of grounding issue.
Sorry if it didn't sound right in the post, I meant that my nexus isn't even picking up port A. And yeah I think my nexus has some problems, I was using my dads note 2 charger which puts out 2 A, and my phone was discharging. I don't have insurance, so I don't think I can get it fixed.

Chargers do not ”put out” amperage. The amperage drawn is determined by the device itself. Even though the charger is rated at 2 amps, the phone will only draw about 1 amp.

Opinions anyone? Saw it on amazon and was wondering if it looked cool to anyone else too.

Judging by how little back there is, it looks like it might put a bit too much stress on the charging port for my liking. I had something like this for my OG Evo with more height in its back and the port went out fairly quickly from the thing using it as support
I have seen this on eBay months ago, there is reason they don't sell very well.
One was £9 with free delivery.

I purchased some docks like this for our iPad Minis. They all broke at the dock connector very quickly, too much stress.

Or for under $30 get a wireless Qi charger. I use this one and works perfectly, even with my Poetic case on.
Yes Digi QI Wireless Charger; http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DY50GIE/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8
If it had some ports on the back for audio(3.5mm aux), HDMI, USB (for OTG functions), etc., then I would build some additional supports on to this dock to relieve the stress from the micro USB port. Without any additional ports on though, I don't see much of a use for this dock. I know everyone has an opinion and that's just mine, but a QI charger just makes a lot more since than this....

So I have a PowerBot® PB1020 Qi Charger that I use for my NOTE3 so I decided to try the Moto 360 and it works great!, so perfect for when you need a small slim charger for traveling

Looking into this as well and I have a Note 3 but was looking at going with an aftermarket receiver.. Do you have factory receiver for your Note 3 or the factory one.
I also use this charger for my g3 and m360!

yeah, the weird thing is.. I also bought the powerboat square shaped one and it doesn't work as well...
I'm talking about the receiver for the phone... Not the charging pad
Can you use any charging cable/power supply with this to charge the Moto 360?
I've tried using a different power supply/cable with the stock charger and it didn't work. Will the Moto 360 charge on this pad with any power supply/cable, or are you using the one that came with the watch?
My orginal charger is out of function. Like 4 hrs charging time.
Can you suggest me some chargers with good experience ? Dont want the qi cahrgers.
Thanks

you want just a wall charger?
Then you want at least 2amp. These work good as wall chargers:

These ones takes about here are amazing. I ended up buying 6 about 2 years a go. My go to high quality from black berry

Thx but bought already the one from RAVpower via amazon
2A Hudl charger with USB lead and car charger from Tesco 12 quid.
The original LG wall charger that came with the nexus 5 has printed on it that the output is 5.0v=1.2a and it charges very fast.
So,if the nexus 5 is designed to be charged at 1.2a it would seem to be dangerous or harmful to use a 2amp charger.
