External batteries/Portable chargers

I'm looking to buy one for when i'm traveling to charge my phone/tablet and looking for suggestions on brands/models/etc. Probably don't really want to spend much more than ~$50 on one. Only requirements are that it isn't too big and bulky to not fit well in a laptop travel case. And the more mAh the better obviously. Thanks.

There are a lot of brands out there. Morphie seems to be one of people's top picks - probably because it looks super nice and marketed well. I personally have never own one and think it's a bit on the pricey side. I have a Ravpower one with 10,400 mah which was mentioned in this thread if you wanna take a look. Works great. Not heavy at all which was surprising. And can charge my nexus 7 about 2 times before i need to charge again. Think Ravpower have smaller ones too, but 10,400 might be their largest capacity charger.
These portable power chargers seems to be everywhere now. You can probably find some in stores too. Think I saw a low mAh one at Lowes the other day by either Duracell or Energizer, but these might not be best for heavy charging.

I just ordered 2 antec powerup 3000's apparently they have Panasonic batteries. I will report back! :beer:

It's originally $99 but they are having a sale through Feb. 18th

Portable battery charger

Anybody have recommendation for a good, portable battery charger that's not too big? I don't want those big square ones. I was looking at this one from this deal site...http://casepapa.com/deals/universal-2600-mah-battery-charger/
There's no brand, but it's only $13, so not much risk involved

Get a Pebble XT 5000maH you can get 2 or 3 full phone charges out of this before it needs charging again.

There are even smaller versions of that particular model called smart sticks. They have good capacities but charge slowly.

I can't live without my pebble, even my wife has twigged onto the fact I have one and it works with her iphone. I've known her go out with it in her handbag

I bought this one.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/39061239557...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
It's trustable and good.
Bye,

I use this, it's cheap but it works well.

First I bought a cheap external 2500 mAh charger with solar panel that it gave me enough juice to make many photos and keep internet on all day on travel holidays. But I bought an MacBook Air 11" and now I use it as external usb charger anywhere I go. It's to small to not take it with me when I make trip longer than a battery charge.
So if you have a mini laptop you can use it as external usb charger with a lot of juice for your phone. I keep always the MBA on a backpack or a messenger bag and the phone on my pockets with a charging cable connecting them.
And never felt since the need for another external charger.

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.

I bought mine here: http://vifocal.com/mobile-accessories/phone-accessories-3/oneplus-accessories.html
2 weeks to arrive, working perfectly.

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.

QI Charger stand. Difference?

Hello there fellers...
Is there any difference between last gen. wireless charging stand and the new one released together for S8?
Does the new one have faster charging speed?

If you mean this one,

I got one and did not like it. Unlike the Samsung Qi charger I had purchased for my car, this one seems to cycle constantly. So it goes on battery, and the phone discharges for a while, then it starts charging, then you get a full charge and it turns off and the cycle starts over. I found it too annoying to use.

Thanks. The new convertible stand looks great but is a bit expensive for now.
Edit: I read on a review for this model that "the correct power supply must be used for it to function properly."

If you mean that it should use the cables/wall plug that it came with, yes, that's true. I have two of them and without a quickcharging cable/cable, it doesn't charge/work as a quick charger.

Sindroid,
Here is the one I have been using
https://www.amazon.ca/Wireless-Char...24826&sr=8-1&keywords=spigen+wireless+charger
Works very well, not high speed but 3.5 hours for full charge and very sturdy. Also has the rubberized grip so very sturdy for the phone to sit on as well. Highly recommend it.

This looks very cool. Does it come with cables and a wall plug? I see "a" cable, but not sure if comes with all the necessary cables. I found it on the US site for $25 (guessing that's what it is at the exchange for CAD).

I'm using the new convertible charger. So far so good.

Accessories Wireless charger

What's the best wireless charging to go with the GP6 pro?
I want the maximum 15w speed and not fussed with Googles proprietary and expensive pixel stand 2.
From what I can tell most don't actually come with the power adapter too also that's another additional expense and would need to be 15w+ output?

You'll be stuck at 12W max. no matter what charger you get, unless it's Google 2nd gen charger.
See here: https://9to5google.com/2021/10/19/pixel-6-tidbits-plastic-top-wireless-charging/

My bad 12w max it is.

Where do we get the Pixel accessories? I don't see them in the Google store.

15W Qi, Anker, decent price.
The only thing is it doesn't look like it would hold a big phone with a case well, but we'll see. I just ordered it for Monday.
Edit: It might hold the phone okay.
