Does anyone know how many full charge discharge cycles this tablet is rated for?

I've noticed that if I try to charge my razr I with my car charger (2000ma USB griffin cigarette ) it charges quickly.
If I try the same with my ipad charger it seems to go really slow?
The ipad charger should also output 2000ma so I don't know why it's charging slowly unless the razr i is limiting the amount of current it is drawing?
Bigger battery, more charging to do. One guy, somewhere on here, posted a chart showing the speed and duration of his charging. It took about 2 hours for a full charge. Know that generally, phones are made to accept a charge faster for the first 30/40/50% of the cycle and to charge more normally after that.
You just have to make some counts. The charger charges at 900 mAh. So you need 2 hours and 10 minutes (more or less) to charge all the 2000 mAh battery. Maybe you use a different charger that charges more mAh.
QuickCharge is a nice feature, yet I'm not sure if it's good to use this for overnight charging. Since it's not all that great for a battery to be charged to 100% all the time I was wondering if it would be better to use a normal charger for overnight charging so the battery won't be up to 100% in 3 hours and then recharging again and again whenever 95% is reached.
I thought it would be better to use a normal charger which takes longer to reach 100%, and only use QuickCharge chargers when you need the phone charged quickly during the day.
I could, however, be very wrong at this so please anyone with knowledge on Li-ION batteries please clarify this. I know for a fact that it's not good for the battery capacity to always be around 100% and it is far better to have the battery consistently between 40-80% to get the best lifespan/capacity out of the battery..

Do you know where to get one of these chargers? I can't seem to find any on the internet!
Does fast charging Daily overnight reduce long term battery health? Is it a better choice to only fast charge when necessary and normal charge overnight?
I've reading about this lately but never came across a definite answer. I was hoping that someone could answer this for me.

Depends on quality of the battery and the capacity of the charger.
In general batteries are charged with 10% of the capacity. For the Nexus 6 battery with a capacity of 3200ma/H, you need a charger with a capacity of 320ma. Assume you need 10 hours to fully charge the N6 with a charger capacity of 320ma.
In theory the N6 charger with his capacity of 1600ma will charge 5x faster.
But the the N6 charger is not permanently in this turbo mode. After some time it switches back to a lower capacity when the battery is partially charged.
Now your question. In turbo mode charger and battery dissipates heath and that is not good for the battery. So normal charge will be better.
But there is also battery drain when you use the N6, especially the nice amoled display.
Battery drain causes also warming up of the battery.
So the total battery life depends not only on (turbo) charging. Also the way the N6 is used.
I am wondering about if the 27W charger have a huge difference compared to the 18W charger
it's not a big enough difference to waste money on IMO
Threre isn't huge difference

well it depends , i bought it cause i always wanna max from the hardware.
The 27W charger charges my phone from 5 to 62% in 30mins and
5 to 93% in 1Hr.
And
charged 18 to 100% in 1Hr 10mins.
While in Stock 18W charger it charges 5 to 46% in 30mins so difference isn't huge but yes there is difference. The full charge takes about 1Hr 35mins from 5to 100 with 18W.
So basically the last 7mins takes 15mins to charge even with 27W charger. Maybe some kernel tweaks will do better job

That's normal and is the correct way to charge a battery safely and to prolong the battery. As the battery gets closer to full capacity the current should be dropped. Doing anything to force charging the battery quickly as it's close to full will, at best shorten the life of the battery, at worst it could cause the battery to explode.
When I charge my tablet I shut down before charging. How do you guys charge yours? I think it charges better if it's not running. I've done that for years with all my tablets. I know it takes about 4 hours with the supplies charger from around 10%. I'll try a fast charger next time.
