Dual Chargers

Anyone know of any dual chargers that can adequately handle charging two nexus 7s at the same time?

I am looking for a wall charger, not a car charger

This one is well reviewed:

[Q] Fastest Car charger.

Hi i am currently using the basic motorola charger and it feels like tis really slow. I know that the note 2 can handle 2amp chargers or more. Can anyone reccomend a fast car charger and if neccesary a fast charge cable to use in the car. I have a toyota which only charges while the car is on so the faster it charges the better. Thanks for your help

I use my Nook charger

I use my nook charger in the car:

It's fast and almost flush with the lighter jack.

I have the anker 24w 2 port charger. Charges pretty good speed. 12 buck on amazon. It has smart port so it'll charge any smart phone including iPhone iPad etc..

I have a simple usb charger that I bought at Walgreens for 5 bucks. Charges pretty quick. I have a good quality usb cable as well.

Almoust all car chargers charge 5.0v and 1A so is half from the wall charger amount

If only "pretty quick" and "pretty good speed" were reliable metrics to go by.
I've yet to find a car charger that will get more than 1.1amps on the meter. Max is 1.8.
1.1amps is enough to charge the phone "pretty quick" normally, but not if it is loaded down. Once I get GPS, bluetooth audio and Torque Pro going at the same time, I find that 1.1amps will actually result in a slow drain. I use an inverter and a stock wall charger which keeps the phone charging even at full use. I've yet to find a aftermarket car charger that will do the job.

Quick charger for car??

I found 2 quick charger for my car...which one do you guys think its better??

I have the Anker one you listed. I've had zero issues for the past couple months of ownership. I use it all the time for work and a few roadtrips.

Anker 5-Port USB C Charger

Dies anyone use the Anker 5-Port USB C as a charger for their phone? Is it capable of charging rapidly? As fast as the original LG charger?
Sent from my Nexus 5x

I actually have one of these and the PowerCore+ 20100 USB-C, which I highly recommend. I feel like the 5-port charger charges the phone a few minutes slower than the LG, but the rapid charge still works. If you need a battery pack the PowerCore+ can charge my phone at least 5 times on one charge. I charged my Nexus and 2 iPhones the other day and it only used 30% of the battery.
I use the 5 port charger to charge my phone, my Nook HD+, my 3DS, Microsoft Band, and my battery pack, and it still does rapid charge.

I finally bought the Anker 5 Port USB C charger and I can definitely recommend this one as it charges my 5X at almost the same speed as the LG charger. Plus,I can charge my other usb devices simultaneosly
Sent from my Nexus 5x

I don't have the version with the C port, but I do have a couple of the Anker 5-port chargers. Using a in-spec USB C to A cable, I get 2.35 amps out of the 5-port charger hooked to my 5X. The OEM charger is rated 3.0 amps, but I don't have a tester for USB C. I would assume it is close to that 3.0 rating. Either way the Anker is pretty close so charge time will only be slightly longer.
I have some more test results in my Slow charger thread.
Overall I'd say you can't go wrong with Anker products. I've now used their chargers, hubs, and card reader. All their products have been quality pieces.

Anker is great.However I do not need a charger like that as all my devices will be scattered on the desktop.I bought a great 4-port USB Charging Station from "ipely" on Amazon. .My honey 6P,iPad3,Kindle,bluetooth headphone could be charged at the same time and everything organized.That is great I think.

No Quick Charge 2.0/3.0 support

TurboPower charger that comes with it is the only thing that will give it a fast charge.
I have no idea how or why Quick Charge tech was left out.

Mine does indeed say "TurboPower Connected" and charges super-fast when I use the USB C Quick Charge 3.0 AUKEY Amp Type-C Dual-Port Wall Charger and the USB C Quick Charge 3.0 AUKEY Car Charger with Dual AiPower Ports. I can't seem to find it now, but I remember reading somewhere that the Moto Z does use QC 3.0, otherwise I wouldn't have bought the above products. NOTE: I am going USB-C to USB-C.

Does not use 3.0.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/z-force/help/moto-z-forces-turbopower-quickcharge-t3429607

In short QC 2.0 and 3.0 don't follow usb c spec according to a top Google engineer. According to Usb c spec the vbus voltage should not exceed 5v. QC tech exceeds this by using 9v and 12v to achieve more power. Motorola built the Moto Z according to spec which allows you to ramp up the current (amps) to achieve more power which is why our stock charger outputs at 5.7amps. You don't need QC to charge fast with Usb c. Usb c with power delivery is actually better . Either way the QC chargers put out 15 watts total. Our turbo charger does 28.5 watts using 5v at 5.7 amps and is actually faster than what's out now. QC chargers use higher voltage to achieve this at 9v 1.7 amps 15 watts, a charger doing 5v 3a does the same 15 watts. So to turbo charge your phone don't use QC chargers unless it also outputs at least 5v at 3a that's the key. Anything less than 3a won't turbo charge. It needs to be a usb C to usb C cable so the charger should have a usb C port not a usb a port like most of you are trying to use. No other charger out now does more than 3amps besides the turbo charger until then use chargers that do 5v 3a. Verizon has a fast charger that supports this and all other fast charging tech.

Here is some info I have been updating on another thread. Here are some 5V/3A Type-C options:

I know these are not as nice as having some other 5V/5.7A charging options but at least they should charge better than QC 3.0 chargers.

Will these charge as fast as the stock charger out of the box? And with a USB C cable does it need to support quick charge, or do all USB C cables support quick charge as long as you have it plugged into a USB C quick charge adapter like you linked to?

Nothing charges as fast as the stock charger as far as I know.

I looked around on Amazon to try to find a spare charger with the same speed as the OEM, but there are none as far as I know. QC actually goes against usb-c standard, so whoever has a phone that supports both is technically being shorted on charge speed. I will be waiting for the verified brands (ex. Anker/Aukey) to release a legitimate charger because there have been instances where wall chargers have completely destroyed devices. For the fastest charge, you'll want usb-c cables end to end, but since usb-c is not the standard yet, I would be very careful when buying lesser-known usb-c accessories. Z owners will have to wait for the market to catch up at this point.

Total side note but I wonder if the problems Samsung is having is because of their bastardized quick charge/type setup.
I'm happy we don't have QC.

I bought the Choetech charger from amazon and it works great on my Z Force. no where near the OEM charger but still charges the phone dead to full in a little over an hour and a half. from my limited testing.

Ha! I was thinking the same when I heard about battery fire from the Note 7.

I just bought another oem charger from amazon and called it a day.

The car charger that Verizon sells turbo charges the phone, but not as quickly as the stock home charger. I don't think any charger will charge as fast as the stock home charger, since it's optimized for the phone. But the Verizon USB-C charger charges the phone plenty fast.

I can confirm this. I just got this phone on an upgrade after insisting to the Verizon sales representative that I did NOT want a Galaxy S8, that I was absolutely sure I didn't want the S8, and that I think the Z Force is a much better device than the S8. After seeing the genuine shock on his face that I slighted his phone, I bought the OtterBox case and the Verizon branded USB-C car charger with it.
The car charger definitely charges faster than my non quick charge USB-C cable, but not as fast as the stock charger. The stock charger will take me from ~5% to full in an hour. The Verizon car charger takes about an hour and twenty minutes to go from ~5% to full.
All in all, it was worth the money spent on the charger. It is definitely better than the 8 hour charge my standard USB-C usually takes.
