Cheap car charger

£6.99 plus £1.39 shipping. Just over a week to get from Hong Kong, its a USB type charger with an indicated 5v output, includes a UK mains USB plug also rated at 5v and a sync/charge cable similar to the Samsung one.
Slightest criticism would be the plug that goes into the tab is slightly loose compared to the original, otherwise very good quality.

They will be very unlikely to be 2100mah , more likely 500-800mah , you cannot believe specifications labels from hong kong/china , The SGTAB needs a lot of power to charge correctly, I would be very weary of using them at all!

Meh, my eBay car charger works just fine.

Can you post a link to that charger? I've tried both the Duragadget and Scosche "2A" car chargers, and neither one fast-charges the Tab. The only thing that's worked for me is getting a 12V inverter and plugging the standard wall-wart into it.

Well, i had this experienced with my blackberry handheld. Using the 3rd party aka non genuine car charger and find out the IC charging it wont worked so it must be replaced with the new one.
could be the voltage standard is different with the genuine one...u might wanna considered again to using the non genuine part for an often usage might damage the handheld

Tesco have them for a couple of quid. They're original Samsung. That, along with all their other accesories are drasticaly reduced to clear. HDMI doc is 9.97, cases are a fiver for the pouch or nine quid for the case and stand.

Use any ordinary USB charger, but use d- n d+ shorted cable to

[Q] generic charger problem.. phone freeze

Today I got from a big Pc store a generic charger which has two inputs car/home and two outputs usb 1000 mA and 500 mA.
Connected the IS and in all my years I've never seen something like that. Phone charges but touch screen is not responding while connected to that charger. Tried both outputs, different outlet in the house, even another charger with one usb at 500 mA. Only with that charger I bought today the problem exists. As soon as I disconnect it the screen works again..
Any ideas?

yes thought of the data pins too but (I opened it) they're so tight soldered to the board that was difficult to do anything.. anyway.. I'll probably try to return it.
FYI all of you since these chargers are Chinese and pretty widespread look like that (nevermind the label)

Happens a lot with me and any charger I use.

Battery Problem

i bought a tmo galaxy tab, and only came with the data cable, so i've been charing it using it and it takes like 10 hours to fully charge, no matter where i plug it, i plug it to my computer and i plug it the wii usb ports or tv usb ports, but still takes like 10 hours, it makes me crazy.. so does that mean i'm forced to buy the original charger? because when i click in "settings, about tab" and says "battery status: NOT CHARGING"
does this happen to the everybody? if i buy the original charger will that fix the problem?
i'm looking to buy this one http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Detachable-Charger-ETA-P10JBEGSTA/dp/B004CGHDEO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1305761300&sr=8-1
and why is so F*cking expenssive ='S!!

Yes the wall charger will fix this.

I (and a few other Tab owners) bought this(or similar) adapter which lets you charge the Tab much quicker (I find it almost as quick as the wall charger). The only downside is whilst charging , you cant use it as a data cable. to do so, you much remove the adapter.

how long will it take with the wall charger? 10min ?

An ipad charger will work. Plugging into tv usb ports or wii usb ports or computers won't work because they don't output enough to charge the tab.
It will still take several hours to charge though. It is a large battery to charge.

i tried using the apple charger
and did not work either, takes 10 hrs too
seems like samsung pulled the fast one, the same sh*t with the desk docking station, they want you to buy those expensive accesories and strip you to nothing :l !!

No the apple charger won't work either, not the same pinouts.

[REVIEW][€4.6][$6.06] USB Car Charger 2.1A + 1.0A [charges like Samsung AC charger]

After reading the problems some have with charging the Note II in the car, all I could think was "unlucky sons of *****es".
Link:
1. http://www.eforchina.com/product/default!view.do?id=131225
Delivery:
1. Worldwide - FREE (15-25 working days) - I received it in 14 (Italy), it was sent as a gift so I didn't have to pay customs related taxes (or any other kind).
2. Worldwide - €2.14 Hongkong Post (7-15 working days)
Does it work?
1. STOCK CHARGER - http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/12/01/yjeryruq.jpg
65% -> 83% - 25 minutes
2. THIS CAR CHARGER
65% -> 83% - 26 minutes (I turned the screen on a couple of times and talked on the phone for under 2 minutes)
- current_avg displays 1600
- I used the stock cable - the rest of them can't use more than 1,05A (stock desire, stock SIII, and a few other charge specific usb ones)
Feel and quality:
Like it is "made in Germany". China is upping it's game (for a while now).

Congrats and I believe you now that it only works well with the heavy duty stock charging cable. I believe now that cable makes a big difference. I am testing a few "charge only" cable with various chargers, car and AC chargers. Results varies and choice of cable is a big factor.

Sorry..off topic..
where did you get those icons?

Which USB cable did you use? a regular one, or one that has the 2nd and 3rd pins/wires shorted?

Car charger with long cable
Does anyone know if there is a car charger out there for the Galaxy Note 2 that is extra long, (around 10")?

Has anybody found a *tiny* USB-C OTG adapter?

With my Note 4, I could keep a tiny OTG adapter (pictured in the link below) in my wallet to give access to USB devices...
https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/HTB19g5f...TG-Adapter-Converter-into-Flash-Drive-For.jpg
I can't seem to find a similar device for use with the Note 8.
Has anybody found anything like this?
Cheers,
Steve.

Perhaps not as tiny but the Note 8 comes with an OTG adapter used for transferring data from an older phone to a new one.

Yeah, I know - I was really wondering why there aren't any OTG adapters in the nano flat style. That's what I'm really after.

THIS is the smallest I've seen.
Well, there is another but the listing just seems a little dodgy - Clicky

I bought a usb 2.0 to C OTG adapter which did not work at all, and a 3.1 A to C which does so that may need to be a consideration beyond just the physical size.

I would have gone with the second one if the picture had actually been of a USB-C interface, rather than Micro USB.
If it can't fit in my wallet, then attaching it to my key-ring (with minimal size/bulk) is a reasonable alternative.

I keep both of these in my wallet. Type C to micro USB and a micro USB OTG adaptor.
Got them from Gearbest and/or Banggood.
