[Q] Does this external battery work for the Xoom?

http://www.amazon.com/Portable-Universal-External-Battery-5500mAh/dp/B004T8EW08
I hope to get an accurate answer because I'm about to order it
Thanks!
Q80
P.S:
Good news: I found the one that would work as an external battery for the Xoom.
It has a 12v/1.5A output and looks to have the same tip of our xoom charger!

To be honest I don't see a small enough pin there.

Motorola isn't even listed. Etc. Doesn't always mean it'll be included.

You DO see it puts out 16-19 volts, right?
IOW, don't buy it.

I have yet to find an extended battery that works with the Xoom, either the pin connector is too big or the output voltage is too low, I have bought these and they dont work either so I doubt the one you listed will

The weird thing is that I saw the same device on other website which has a pin in the old nokia chargers size .. the pin may be not included but you may need to buy it separately!

FYI, the device is listed on different websites and sometimes they mention Motorola and sometime they not .. it's not our issue since this is considered as a universal external battery.

The thing is .. if it could charge the hucking laptops and even cellphones then why it wouldn't work for our xoom?
I mean isn't there a way to convert the 16v into 12v ??

The ones you've listed are usb based output which barely gives 5v and we indeed need 12v.. but the one that I asked about could provide 16 to 19 volts and that's the difference.
I hope we find an external battery for our Xooms .. cuz I'm working on a project for the xoom that needs an external battery (hint: hand made keyboard docking such as the transformer )

Not efficiently at the 18W that's needed to fully replicate the charger. Plus that, I suspect the charging plug sets the output voltage (kind of like what the Kensington chargers do).

External battery charger adapter in UK

Hi, I have a great external battery pack, a Tecknet IEP390. It's rated at 11000 mAh so should be able to pretty much charge the Note 10.1 from flat.
I realise that I need an adapter to make this happen as the battery only outputs 5v at 1A. Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction as I've been searching for ages with no luck? Would need to be a UK supplier.
Thanks.

I have searched and not found a single UK based seller selling those, lots of them from HK etc.
I use an IMP70D from here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/IMP70D-External-Sensation-Thunderbolt-Blackberry/dp/B004UN3N0W and can check it it charges the Note without an adapter as it has a 2.1A output.

Thanks very much for looking. I didn't really want to run to the expense of another charger (but I'll look at this one if I do).
Just so I know what I'm looking at could you point me at one of the HK sellers' adapters please? Ordered one and want to check I've got the right idea. Cheers.

Did you read the rest of the thread? You also need the adapter as Samsung has a special pin layout that prevents any non-Samsung chargers from charging the Tab/ Note.

If that's a universal charger with movable connectors, don't get that. It wont charge your battery to 100% and might mess up your connectors on your battery.

Read again the OP...
He's asking for a charging wich charges your phone, AND spare battery at the same time.
Kidigi has that kind of charger, and also other companies offer one, just copies of this one

both chargers above have an extra USB port...so you can connect a USB cable from the charger to the phone while a spare battery is charging..

There is also this one from Kidigi as well.
It features dock/sync mode button, audio out via usb.
It has a bit less physical support but both Jeurum_92's suggestion and this one have a removable insert to help accommodate a case. It's also a bit more $$$.

Yes, it has an insert wich you can remove so if you have a slim case it will fit

Looks like you need to use a USB Mini cable and not the cable it's supplied with to get both to charge at the same time though.

Where to buy an original charger?

Where, if any of you have boughten an original charger. I packed and moved half way across the country, one thing I forgot was my original charger. I have a 2amp Samsung charger, but still doesn't charge fast enough.

I'm sorry, I don't know of a seller for the original charger but perhaps your problem is that the OPO charger is 2.1A (2100mA) so that might be it.

You need a thicker cord, not a new charger. You need the 26/28 or 24/28 charging cord.

I use an Anker Astro 12000mHa power pack to charge mine and it charges in the same 1h50m from 2%-100% as the 1+1 charger. It goes from 2%-90% in 1h20m but like all phones the last 10% is where the charge rate slows.
I use the smart charge port on it by the way.

Blackberry Play book 2A chargers work insanely well, and ridiculously fast. Full charge in under 45 minutes.
Search Amazon for the 3 pack for around $14.
Got the link from the Nexus 5 accessories sub forum and could not be happier.

Charging cable

Heyo!
A few weeks ago I sent my LG G4 into the service because of faulty connector ( known issue that makes device to stay on bootloading screen ) and then for a faulty camera. After it has been returned, I saw a BIG, HUGE and SIGNIFICANT problem: charging with the original USB Data Cable ( which came with the phone ) takes more than 3 hours to get to full battery. The time was never great, but it was never like this. I also have a small USB Charging Only cable ( which came with a portable battery that I bought ) which charges the phone in about 1h 30-40m ( or something like that ) from 5% to 100%. The thing is that the small one has been damaged ( almost like the iphone chargers do, but on the other end ) and I need a new one. So can anyone suggest some cheap USB Charging Only cables?

I use the cable from my Galaxy S4 and that works fantastic!

Help you on what man? Suggest a cheap USB cable? At what part of the world?
If it's cheap then it's unbranded. If it's unbranded how can one refer to it?
You want links to cables from eshops?
The world is full of USB cables. Just try cables from your older phones, or if you don't have, from phones of friends or family.
In the end, just buy one. They' re... cheap!

Cheap sould mean cheap in most parts of the world, right? I would have said 'thanks' for a damn link that led me to some usb charge only cable for my phone. If i had any other cable that would work, from me or anyone i know, would i still be here asking for that only so i can get a frustrated answer from you? Thanks for you devine help and advice because i can now die in peace. Please close this thread. Case solved.

Me too, it used to charge fast, now it's so slow, I change the cable, it's way better... but cheap cable they gave.

Hello,
Same problem here, yesterday my usb cable shows me 4 hours to charge while he usually tells me an hour even changing decision so I took another usb cable (the one in my X98 tablet Air III) and worries disappeared. I do not know why and how, but good .. LG really starting to disappoint me (bootloader block, problems with Rom, load, heating, autonomy ..) ..
