I came across this cable on amazon but couldn't find any details on compatibility with the N7.
Does anybody happen to own both and if so can you confirm?

Thanks in advance!
My guess is no. That cable has like 6 or 7 pins. The N7 only has 3.

N10 has 6 pins, N7 has 4. The N10 pogo charger also has the magnets on it that allows it to attach to that tab, not compatible with N7.

I was just wondering if anyone here has spotted a Nexus 7 car charger? Does it not matter if it's not specifically made for the Nexus 7? I'm trying to find one to buy online and I'm having some troubles. First post here I think I came to the right place though. :laugh:

Clicked thanks on accident lol. Any USB car charger should work, but I would make sure you grap a 1 amp one just so it has enough output to charge the tablet at a decent rate.
probably better with a 2amp one. samsung makes one for the tab2, about $12 on amazon, and just use your own microusb cable to connect to it.

Yup, go with a 2Amp one. Most of the cigarette lighter usb chargers are 2.1A.
Avoid the cheap Chinese 2+Amp car chargers, they can be so badly made they cause enough interference to wipe out your FM radio.
/edit 1Amp will be fine but don't go lower, the N7 would likely burn it out.
FYI I tried a 5v 1a wall charger and my gnex7 said f u wouldn't take the charge. 2a or nothing I say

Do you already have the Nexus 7? If so, can you take a look at the charger and see if rated at 1A output and/or try to charge it with a charger that came with your phone?
I am just curious if it can actually charge with less than 2A. The charger listed in the Play Store outputs 2Amps and I thought most tablets require 2A to charge.

Still waiting, should only be a couple of days now though...
I know this is something most people never do...but if you read the manual for the Nexus 7 it says you can charge it on a standard USB port with the Nexus 7 in sleep mode (no doubt because the power draw is much less). Standard USB ports are typically .5A...sometimes less. I would say that's the actual minimum. For the fastest charging 2A is what you want though.
The ASUS charger that comes with the N7 is rated at 2A (10W). I tested an old BlackBerry 0.85A (~4W) micoUSB charger and it seemed to work fine and the N7 didn't complain though I didn't do any scientific tests against the charging rates.
The 0.5A (2.5W) chargers probably won't even charge the unit if you're actively using it.
Cheers,
Kermee

Yeah...read my previous post...the manual says you can charge on a standard usb port (0.5A sometimes less) but only if the Nexus 7 is in sleep mode...ie you're not actively using it. If you can't charge it while connected to USB and it's in the sleep state...then your usb port is probably a low power USB port (<0.5A).
For those looking for a good backup battery charger for it...I recommend this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005NGKR54/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00
works perfectly with my Nexus 7 (just make sure to use the correct USB out port on it as only one of them is 2A)
DealExtreme Charger
Saw this one on DealExtreme, even come with cable:
http://www.dealextreme.com/p/car-ci...-port-for-google-nexus-7-tablet-146751?item=8
Will be ordering will update when arrives. Also they're carrying Nexus 7 Cables in Pink, Green and Orange.
Was using a Sprint micro-USB plus charger (model PVX8823) with attached cable and standard USB port for 2nd device that I was using for my phone. Output is 0.65Amp which isn't sufficient and will slowly drain the N7 battery while in use. ~$35 at Sprint retail store. Wouldn't recommend for obvious reason.
Fortunately, had a spare Motorola SPN5400A 1Amp I bought with some screen protectors from Amazon because it was cheap like ~$5. 1Amp is sufficiently to maintain the charge while in use at near worse case running 3D games like Dead Trigger, Shadowngun, etc. So, 1Amp is minimum threshold.
You need a charger that:
1) Is capable of 2A (1.5A may be sufficient, 1A is a little too low)
2) Shorts D+ and D- together - This rules out most iPad chargers.
If it says it is made for iPod/iPad it will not work without modifications or adapters.
Samsung tablet chargers will work.
If you take an iPad charger, open it up, and short D+ and D- together, it will work.

Most chargers for android phones will work. I use my HTC charger for ,mine and I bought a car charge that has the standard micro USB connector but also has another USB port so I can charge 2 devices at the same time with 1 charging unit. You droid razor charger will work just fine. You just need to locate a charger that is capable of charging 2 devices at the same time such as this one

Check out this oem charger from Sprint. Its a dual port charger with a 2a output and you dont have to worry about buying a knock off charger that may or may not perform as expected. It also can be used as a wall charger. Good price too....

So are any of these confirmed 100% to work? the one a few links back (GTMax) says works with iphone, and I thougth that meant would NOT work with N7. So I am confused on what will work, and I am already on my 2nd Nexus7 being I blew out the USB trying a bunch of differnt chargers for the car.
I would like something that is small and can have multiple USB plugged in, but not a show stopper, just hope to find something on Amazon (Prefer Prime) so I can oder with my case today. Really want to use this in the car more (GPS\GoogleMusic..ect.), but with no power not a great option.
Thanks in Advance,
Drops

Is there any word on when a pogo dock will be available for the Nexus 10? I bought one of these things to replace my HP Touchpad and I absolutely love the wireless charging stand for it. I need something similar for the N10!

There has been no announcement of an actual dock, only a charger. The Nexus 7 is also made by ASUS, so there may be different manufacturing delays(I assume this is the problem because the alternative is that they are intentionally holding them back for some reason)
The Galaxy Nexus Docks were delayed by 6 months, due to them not actually working with JellyBean. I really don't understand what the problem could have been though, because apart from pogo charging and allowing the homescreens to orient in landscape, they do sod all else.
Looking for headphones that fit with an OTG micro SB. Or an OTG that fits with standard headphones. The OTG micro SB that I have is the standard on on amazon prime and the headphones are iphone ear buds but the inserting end is too tall to fit with the OTG attached. I don't think wireless headphones are an option because I want them for plain rides. Thoughts?

Yeah... Ones that aren't right angled but just straight like a normal micro usb cable... I have 2 right angles that i use with my nexus 7 and s3.....but just bought a nexus 10 and ordered 2 otg straight ones from ebay. They were 99 cents shipped from ebay. I knew my old right angle ones would be in the way of the headphone jack on the n10 so bought those. Cheaper alternative than buying new headphones

Just a question for people who also have the TF700.
Is the charge cable the same of the TF700 or is it a different one?
I'm looking to buy some extra charge cables since i like to have one in my car and also a sync cable at my desk but at the moment it's not easy to find accessoires for the TF701, so i was wondering if the charge cable is the same as the TF700.

No, definitely a different cable. I have not seen them for sale yet. But as always I suspect the Chinese copycats to not be too far behind so they should arrive within the next few weeks. And original.... well, if they would cost less then 5 euro/dollar, sure, anything above that, I'll buy a copy with free shipping.
I guess owners of older transformers ( i have a TF101), will just need TF701 USB cable as the existing Asus Wall Plug should work.
I'll confirm this when i get my hands on a TF701. Hopefully not long now.
Thanks for the info, will wait till i see the cables for the tf701 popup online.

I can confirm this. The charger of the TF101 will work on the TF701 but you need a different cable because the connector on the Tf701 is different compared to the TF101
Charging cable is definitely different but the wall adapter looks to be the same. I'm using my tf700 adapter with the new cable as we speak.

My charger is still in the box, the TF700 charger looks identical and is working fine. Regrettably they changed the connector, at a guess I'd say so you have to buy a new dock.
Just got my TF701 and the platic cover (part that you hold when plugging/unplugging) came off the first time I unplugged it so now I have to be very careful with it.
Still can't find cheap clones of that cable online, hope they pop up soon.
I'm looking for a cord too! My cat just ate mine.
How am I supposed to charge my TF701 now?

The new connector is smaller than the one on TF101. I guess it is because the new connector is USB 3.0 instead of 2.0.

It has the same connector as the Vivo tab.
Maybe you should look on the web for a cable for that because it is much longer on the market.
For example:

Thanks for the advice!
No cables anywhere yet
This is bogus, I can't believe they don't have a decent supply of Tf701 proprietary USB cables out yet, WTF.
If anyone's interested I guess you could snatch up a big supply from China and resell them to make some nice bank, aliexpress . Com has a bulk 200 for $820.

This is a small album showing the current/voltage the USB OTG ports are capable of on the Nexus 5 and the 2013 Nexus 7. You could charge a Nexus 5 using a Nexus 7 faster than a standard USB port on a computer .
The 1st gen ipad ofcourse, is barely up to par.
