Tf701t Mains Adapters

Hi guys,
I had more than one mains charging adapter for my TF700 as it was more convenient to leave one plugged in permanently on my desk and carry another around in my laptop bag for out of house charging.
Had a look around and can't find any charging adapters or usb cables available. Has anyone seen any anywhere?
I sent an email to Asus Shop and had the following response:
"Dear Owen,
Thank you for your interest to our e-shop
Unfortunately we don’t have this product in our shop but that does not mean this product in not available elsewhere. ASUS Shop is an outlet for refurbished ASUS tablets and notebooks – the range of accessories offered in our shop is rather limited.
You should be able to obtain this product from following Asusparts site. Or please contact ASUS Support Team for a list of retailers."
However, they don't list the TF701 yet
Damn Asus for changing the proprietary charger!!!

I remember from when the tf101 released, it took months before there was official acessories available from asus.
I dont expect to get a spare charger for a good couple of months.
I think if you already have a wall plug from your tf700, you could probably get away with just getting another tf701 USB cable and plugging it in to your TF700 wall plug.

Wall plug for the TF700 is identical so you can use it without a problem.

Problem is, there are currently no USB cables for the new, slightly smaller connector that the TF701t uses.
Have been looking for a spare one already, just in case No luck so far.

I looked for a charging cable with TF701 connector on Amazon and Ebay but no luck yet. I bought a while ago one for my TF700 with a lenght of 2 meters that comes handy at airports.

the "chargers" are all the same: a wall wart with a usb3 connector, 5V out as default, 15V out on transformer connect.

Anyone knows which brand of batterypack offers a 15V out by USB to charge the TF701 (700 also)?
Did quite some searching on this but can't find any.

This one even comes with an adaptor for the tf700. I don't own one but it has a lot of favorable reviews. I have owned other batteries by the same company and never had a problem with them. There's also a switchable voltage external battery on amazon that claims its 12V setting works with Asus tablets. Search amazon for 12v external battery. Other sites probably carry them as well but I only buy from amazon because returns are so dang easy.

When the tf101 was my main tablet I bought a cheap in-car charger off ebay. The seller claimed the circuitry inside boosts the voltage to 15V (cars generally run on 12V). Here's what happended: The tablet did actually try to charge, and it indicated it did. But as the adapter was a fake (I teared it down to find a diode inside and 11.2V output voltage), the voltage was way too low. The power supply circuitry inside the tablet converts the 15V down to whatever it uses (the 15V will be chosen because that way the current can be kept low enough for standard usb connectors) but the input was too low, and it whined. What happened is, even while displaying that it's charging, the battery drained. This all makes sense.
So if I can provide some advice here: 12V was too low to charge a tf101. The tf701 can, if switched off, be charged off 5V. I'm pretty sure in the worst case you'll see behavior like on my tf101, but will be able to charge if switched off. This is valid for in-car chargers and backup batteries. I wouldn't go for less than 15V. What I use in my car is a variable voltage multi supply for notebooks and a original asus cable soldered to it.

Check Cable Compatibility

I ran across this helpful little app and thought it may help others to check there cables. All of my google cables checked out okay but the one C to USB cable I got at amazon was not compatible with my 6P. good thing it only cost $8.00
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.mderezynski.checkr

Here's a write up Gizmodo did on what cables will work - http://gizmodo.com/a-google-enginee...source=gizmodo_facebook&utm_medium=socialflow

Here is a Google Spreadsheet of what compatible and what's not.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet..._sfNVNzbA/htmlview?usp=docslist_api&sle=true#

I've heard all about these 'compatible' cables, in fact I have one of the unsupported/out-of-spec cables and it seems to work fine. What are the consequences of me continuing to use this cable?

Cable or charger but not the phone? I thought with all this USB type c stuff it was suppose to 'intelligently' calibrate chargers and devices to prevent damage or an I thinking of something else?
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

yes when it's USB-C to USB-C, not when it's USB-C connector to USB-A which does not conform to USB-C specs. Makes sense?

Yeah OK that makes sense. Just seems like a step backwards in regards to acquiring and using cables. I'll now be hesitant of using any USB A-C cables that are are unknown or cannot be tested at the time.
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

I have an USB B to C adapter (2 pack) from D&K which, according to this app says it is fine, but according to the google doc's spreadsheet it does not meet the requirements. Hmmmm.....
My Orly 4 pack of USB A to C does not register as compliant which agrees to the spreadhsheet of compatible products. Wonder how accurate this app is????

Quick question!!! If the cable is not safe to recharge the cable is it safe to only transfer file into the phone ?

Good question. I'm not sure if its safe or not but I did transfer some files from my laptop to my 6p with no issues. But as soon as I found out that the cable was not compatible I stop using it. Didn’t want to damage the USB port on my laptop.

I bought two cables from amazon and one of them is probably out of spec - it rapid charges my 6p. But given its purpose (to quickly charge my phone from my anker power bank) I like the extra speed in charging. Any real harm in using it? The power bank is qc2.0 compliant so its used to having a large draw on it.

I bought a generic cable from eBay. I checked both the supplied USB a to C cable with the phone and the generic one. Both cables passed the test. However after about 3 weeks I ran the test again, now it is showing me both Google and the generic one fail the test.

Has anyone found slim power bank with built in type c cable?

I know, the phone's battery is great but everyone needs a little bit of juice while in a hurry or when you are just going out. I was looking all over but I still cannot find a good power bank with built in usb type c cable. If anyone owns or knows where to buy one please reply below. :good:
Thank you

Something like this one?

Not really. Its a power bank with built-in USB Type C cable. On amazon and ebay there are only with micro USB cable, but not for the needs that I want.

In my country i bought it from local e-commerce marketplace,
It also available in OPPO offline store,
Not sure about yours, but you always can try eBay. Keywords should be "OPPO VOOC Mobilepack or Powerbank"

^ 0 results on ebay for that i want one with dash charge and not have to wait for oneplus to release grrr this cheap £20 i got in town for pokemon takes for ever to charge up ffs

There is no other powerbank that support dash charge with USB C than the Oneplus Powerbank.
Oppo sell VOOC powerbank that is compatible with dash charge (it's the same thing for who didn't know yet) but micro usb cable is built in to you have to use a micro usb to usb C converter, so that my may explain why orignal poster asked a built in USB C. Same as Oppo VOOC powerbank but with usb C built in : it don't exist.
Only the oneplus dash powerbank with the dash cable can work, if it appear someday.

Just use it with an adapter!
Available at Alibaba or Amazon.
I even found one Chinese manufacturer - apparently the only one - offering Mini-USB to USB-C adapters.
(Most common are Micro- to USB-C adapters.)
Actually throwing away chargers, which are still working, just because of an other plug standard is something I don't like.

Looking for the same thing. Asking a guy in Mediamarkt yesterday he said, still not on the market

From what I have read on this forum so far, there is no power bank that will charge at Dash Charge speed. You only get Dash Charge with OP's wall socket Dash Charger and supplied cable (well, not entirely sure it has to be their cable to work.)
It's explained in this thread: "For those wondering about using a power bank to charge their OP3" (by EP2008) [sorry, can't post links yet]
I think that I will go with the adapter, anything with 2 A and QC capacity will still charge the OP3 very fast.

I'm pretty sure DASH is proprietary to OP... But either way they are 5V/4A... I rolled the dice and bought some off the app wish/geek and 2 cables worked with dash and one didn't.. I really didn't expect any results giving my $5.00 investment but it paid off.

Type C cables

Does it really make a difference what kind of Type C cable you use? If so what is the fastest and best cable to use.

USB 3.1 will give faster speeds than the stock cable which is USB 2.0.
Of course 3.1 cables are more expensive.

And they are harder to find longer than 6ft.

no such thing as fastest and best when it comes to things that stick to an official spec.
usb spec is a spec all companies must adhere to. one company cant provide more or less than another if they are making cables that use the USB 3.1 spec.
if you want to take advantage of 3.1 usb speeds, look for cables that have the spec clearly on the cable and in the information.
for example, i use these, but there are many others that are also just a good.

current usb 3.1 gen 1 cables that SPEC "10Gbps SuperSpeed" can only exist currently in cables less than 4 feet. this is the length the cables can be to stick to the spec (currently).
will no doubt change as cable tech catches up to make longer ones.

That's a bit much for charging a device. The cost of those cables are because of the converters on each end.
The best use for them is the Xbox One Kinect to extend its range of connectivity. I'm sure there are others though.
I do believe also that Android kernel does have a cap on how fast the charge is accepted on the device, to better keep the components and battery safe.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/5b7ahk/study_critique_apples_rectangular_box_2m_usbc/
Look up benson, he reviews USB C cables and points out the good and the bad.
I have few of the apple USB c cables and they're on the recommended list. A bit costly at $20 but it's more of a universal USB c cable that you can charge devices up to 100w with it. (Apple uses it for their 87w MBP) I guess technically all of his approved cables fit the USB c standard and should handle high current fine but I'm just paranoid.

This right here!!
Been using these cables , powerline series ,for awhile. Almost indestructible, charge faster the stock cables and transfer better. 6 footers great , but 3 footers feel faster, must be 3.1 vs 3.0 . Can't go wrong with Anker.

Yea mate. Thanks for your input.
The OP asked a question, I asked for more info.

@jason504,
In terms of charging, they are not different. As mentioned, the cable that currently ships with the device wont give you faster throughput than an aftermarket cable.
if you want to take advantage of faster data transfer speeds of the 3.1 spec, you are recommended to look into a 3.1 spec USB cable.
I use choetech but brand Cable Matters is also another good quality brand of cable. There are others as well...
