Emergency charger for G4? - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Any idea about small power bank? Don't need great capacity, but should fit in a pocket. Something what is good for situations where you between home and office and just need 20-30% to keep you running.

I believe mophie has something like this, it's called powerstation reserve micro. check it out.

Just found something interesting for that: culcharge powerbank - http://igg.me/at/culcharge2

I would be interested as i use my phone alot and need to have a charger at work which i dont really like having cables seen at the front of my desk and it doesn't look very good when we have visitors

Interesting Idea, but just curious how the micro-USB or the USB-C part that sticks out doesn't get bent or broken off after some time of being in your pocket. Is it retractable?

You lose a lot of efficiency in recharging a battery from another battery, you are much better off simply buying a spare battery. 30 seconds you go from 0-100 and you could never find a portable charger as small as that.

Just came across this on Kickstarter and depending on how efficient it is I may jump on it. What do you guys think about this little Qi enabled powerbank?

It seems pretty decent. If they start selling any of these babies on Amazon, I'd probably jump on board due to not having a wireless charger for my devices yet. Nice find!
Just got word from the creators and they are claiming 70% efficiency.

So it's just a nice looking, average efficiency, poor battery, overpriced qi power bank?

Couldn't write it any better than you did.
What stop anyone from getting a cheap USB power pack and plugging a cheap Qi charger on it? Having a < $20 Qi charger at home, I couldn't recommend paying much more for one. It just work brilliantly and it's cheap as f***.
I just can't seem to see the point of such a device.
Yeah it's neat and nice looking (for some), but it's such a waste of energy (wall power --> battery --> wireless charge --> phone battery) that you'd be better of plugging a USB power pack directly on your phone if in an emergency.
I could see myself using such a device since I got a rubber plug in my micro USB port, but still, that's mostly me being lazy not wanting to use a cable.
That's only my opinion, it might be the next best thing on the market, what do I know
Any thoughts on a super slim qi charger I could attach to a power bank? Thinking about taking your advice and making my own.

cheap Dock Stand & Battery Charging station?

Does someone know which is the best and cheap Dock Stand Battery Charging station?
many of them looks good but we have to think how fast they can charge the second battery or the phone
i think most of them is 500mA for the phone and 500mA for the battery
Do we know a faster even only for a battery ?

I found a very good dock/charger. I can't link it because I only have a few posts here so can't make links. On ebay UK it is listed as "USB Dual Charger Dock Cradle Holder+Battery for Samsung Galaxy Note N7000" and on ebay.com you can find it as "Battery Dual Charger Cradle For SamSung Galaxy Note N7000 i9220 i717 EB615268VU"
Because of xda's dumb rules (like established members don't post bs ha ha) I can't even post an image to help you identify it (I can't even quote your links!) but I hope the info above is enough.
It charges my GT-N7000 very quickly and allows proper dock/sync as well. It can also charge a spare battery but this is slower.
For a simple battery charger the very boring Samsung battery charger is quickest. For a syncing dock/charger the one I tried to describe is pretty decent. Samsung accessories for GT-N7000 are quite badly designed and compare badly with the range available for similar i-Fruity products so I suspect this is as good as you will find. pm me with your email address if you need a working link to ebay.com/uk.
thank you I will try to find the dock you described
you can put the url without the http:\\ even with not so many post

This is the item. I don't know anything about that seller or the battery in that listing. Various people sell the same item with and without a battery.
Thank you for links

Review of iClever® 50W / 10-Amp 6-Port Fast Charging USB Wall/Travel/Desktop Charging

This is a great desktop charger that is both stylish and easy to use!
In the box, you get the charger itself, the AC power cord, an instruction manual, and a “HISCARD” warranty card.
First Impressions: This product feels very nice and looks very sleek. I can already tell this will look pretty cool while sitting on my desk and in use. Setting it up was pretty easy and simple. I just plugged the AC power cord into the charger and I was all set.
After using it for a while, I can say that it is a pretty powerful charger. I was able to charge two external batteries, a pair of Bluetooth headphones, two Samsung Galaxy S3’s, and an iPhone 5S super fast! They all were charged up WAY faster than the standard 1A chargers that are in almost every home and used by everyone. One thing that is incredible about this product is that it can output 10A total at the same time! That is a lot of power. It works great, looks great, feels great, and I don’t know what else to say, it’s a pretty awesome product!
I would highly recommend this to all of my friends that have multiple devices that need charging. I’m sure it is a hassle for them to plug their devices into many different locations and I’m sure that it would be very convenient for them to plug in all of their devices into one charger in one area. It certainly is a newfound convenience for me.
Overall, this is a great product and I highly recommend it!
I was provided a unit for testing purposes and I promised to provide a completely honest and fair review.
I have attached pictures below.
Unfortunately, I cannot post the link to this product on Amazon because posting commercial links is forbidden, but you can find it on Amazon by searching for the product's name that is in the title of this thread. Thanks!
Please, make sure to include pictures of the product with your reviews. It will add value to your write up and will benefit other members of our community

It really is incredible, as in not credible. 6*2.4 = 14.4 Amps, yet this charger is only 10 Amps. That doesn't add up.
Fair enough, you are unlikely to be charging six tablets all at once so wouldn't need the full output of all outlets simultaneously, but they shouldn't advertise it as being capable of that if it isn't

Review of CHOETECH 50 Watt 6 Port Desktop Rapid USB Charger

This is a great Desktop Charger that can complement your desk well and provide a great convenience!
In the box, you get the charger itself, the power cable, and an instruction manual.
First Impressions: This has a really nice matte finish. It is nice because it is small, lightweight, and seems like it would be very easy to carry almost anywhere. Setting it up was easy. I simply plugged the power cord into an outlet and plugged the cord into the charger. One thing I wish the charger had was a light that could let you know the charger is getting power. I also think that it would've been better if the ports were labeled with the output amperage. The only information I know is that all of the ports output 5V at the same time.
After using this for a while, I can say that this is a solid product! I plugged in two Samsung Galaxy S3's, my iPod Touch 4th generation, two external batteries, and a wireless charger. Everything that I plugged in was immediately supplied with power and the things that needed charging were immediately being charged. All of the items (except the wireless charger) were charged up in no time.
Overall, this is a great product which has a few flaws but works great.
I was provided a unit for testing purposes and I promised to provide a completely honest and fair review.
Unfortunately, I cannot post the link to this product on Amazon because posting commercial links is forbidden, but you can find it on Amazon by searching for the product's name that is in the title of this thread. Thanks!
Nice specs, nice package, and looks good. But what about the warranty? I've never heard of this company, and some reviewers mentioned problems after a short time.

They have a one year warranty on all of their products, which covers manufacturing defects.
Adding to my next amazon order. Thanks for sharing!
I'm very happy that I saved this on my wish list to purchase. I believe I saw it in passing on CNET which prompted me to buy this. I charge an iPhone 6, two to three iPads, and my Pebble smart watch when needed. It's quiet and a pretty quick charge for spreading out that much power. Happy customer.

Problem Solved. I've had the Jackery 6000mAh charger in my bag for two years without a problem. Charges ipads and devices rapidly and is perfect if you are not wanting to be that guy sitting on the floor next to the outlet . So this new one: See the cords that have micro usb and lightning (iOS) connectors.. Well that solves the issue of carrying a battery and an cord? Leave that cord at home, you don't need it. How cool is it to be on the plane, and just pull this out without having to negotiate that 6 foot white cord? Its pretty slick and worth the purchase. Very reliable and two years later (on my last model) no drop off in performance.

Anker.
*Not affiliated, because someone asked about a cable in another thread.
Sure, there a other label, but a Powerbank with such volume and rather low price wouldn't come in my home.
Amazon reviews, btw, are not that reliable, aside from this.
Look tech forums up.Unfortunately can I not recommend other than in my native language.

Best Power Bank
Hey,
What makes a Power Bank good and efficient?
1. Portability
2. Capacity
3. Weight
4. Easy to carry
5. Fast Charging
Here is a list of the best power banks under 1500 where you can grab the perfect portable power bank for you.
I am using OnePlus 10,000 mAh Power Bank and really satisfied with the experience
Regards,
Rishabh
I rarely ever use power banks, but as far as I am concerned, brand doesn't matter at all.
I had a cheepo power bank with no name a while back and it was the best power bank I ever had.
Hey,
Check out Redmi Power Banks. They are so good in sound quality and battery life.
There are two variants available : 10,000 mAh, 20,000 mAh
Check them out, surely you will like it
RAV Power is my power bank of choice. Takes a while for a full charge but invaluable on a long trip.
