Found a cheap 65W charger - Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra Accessories

So chargers for this phone MUST have PPS technology. This one fits the bill. Available for $20 w/ USA plug w/o cable. I bought two of these, can confirm I'm getting about 50W+ charge through Ampere app. A good option if you don't want to slam the phone with 120W all the time.

If you're using a 120v outlet your phone is only getting about 55w anyway if you measure with a kill-a-watt. But it's nice to have a second high speed charger.

What is the charging animation say when using the 65w charger ? Turbo charge? Quick charge?

Fast charge hack

I bought what i thought were a couple higher quality universal chargers. They charge my razr fast but won't charge my nexus 7 at all. I have one of the chargers pulled apart but before I do any soldering I want to make sure -- if I cross the 2 data points will it work?
Well I couldn't wait 10 minutes so I tried. Answer: no. Wtf?
Can anyone tell me how to hack these chargers to make them work? Is there a resistor I need to remove?
Isn't it more likely to be a software thing?
With my samsung Tab 7.7 i couldn't charge it using my ipad charger until a Dev modded the software on the tablet.
are they 2Amp chargers? most universal chargers are only 1Amp
Well whatever the problem is, I want to charge my tablet in more than one place, I want to charge it faster than the 16 hours generic chargers are taking, and I don't want to pay $30 for OEM chargers.
If your tablet is taking 16 hours to fully charge, return it. I can drain mine after heavy use of the day and its still fully charged in under 6 hours.

@soldeus: There's nothing wrong with my tablet. The OEM charger works fine and some of my generic chargers work, they just don't have the current. (See below)
@vivan: They are 1A chargers, but they should still work. They don't charge at all. The 500ma Blackberry charger I'm using here at work will charge it in about 8 hours.
Ironically the move to almost-universal micro usb chargers has made the market for them even worse. Now, instead of having to buy a new charger every time you buy a new phone, you have to buy a dozen different chargers till you find one that actually works. Like I said, I didn't try to cheap out. I got a high quality charger.

The OEM charger is 2A for a reason. Because the tablet uses more power, it needs more current to charge at a fast pace.
Your generic 1A chargers are probably just enough to keep the tablet powered on, without draining (or charging) the battery.
If you can find a 2A universal charger, it should work just like the OEM one.

No, my 1A chargers are doing NOTHING at all. I plug it in and the charging icon doesn't come on. Reviews have tested these chargers at about 950ma and as I said, my 500ma Blackberry charger isn't too bad.. It's not lack of power, it's something else.
My guess is it has whatever resistor it needs to make it an "ipad" charger. And the vast majority of 2A chargers will, too.
So.. back to my original question: what do I need to do to make this charger charge my tablet? I KNOW it's possible. I just need to find the guy who can tell me how.
I also need a charger for my car, my usb power adapter in the car does not work, need to know what car charger will work as this tablet is supposed to be my car stereo replacement, sucks having to bring your stereo in to charge it and hope it lasts till you get done work
I bought the Scosche dual 10 Watt car charger, isn't here yet though. It does say it wont charge the Samsung tablets, maybe due to the proprietary cord because apparently there is a cord that works with them. It's not a specific ipad charger and does say it works with Android devices and tablets.
On a side note, what's the best way to determine what your N7 is actually charging at?
Both of my generic chargers won't work either, a 2.1A generic iPad charger, and a 1A standard USB charger. Considering it WILL charge off a 500ma USB port, it's not a current/amperage issue, it's a software/proprietary hardware issue.

I use a verizon branded car charger to charge my N7 but I think they charge $30 for it at the vzw store.
I suggest you read this page as it may have some info to help you modify your charger:

the cost isn't so much the issue, its the actually working part. do they have one with an angled micro usb so i can mount the tablet in the car properly or preferably a usb adapter one where i can use my own cord
For $30 you could order a handful of different ones on ebay or monoprice and find something that works. But I want a dual charger.

I won't say 100% but I would bet the probability is very high. For the 1A charging they all seemed to play the same game with the voltage on the data lines. Not sure you'll get 2A but you'll at least get 1A.
Edit... maybe not, see this thread:

I have a philips as351 audio dock that pushes 2A out of the micro-usb charger and the usb port on the back and neither will charge the N7. Bummer because it looks so nice on the dock to

Additional 2amp Wall chargers

I was able to pick up car chargers already, but am having a hard time finding a good deal on extra 2amp wall chargers. Samsung had one on their accessory page for a while, but never got any stock. It disappeared in the last few days.
Might be cheaper to buy an iPad compatible brick and use it with a microusb cable. Works well and charges fast, and reusable for future devices.
radio shack has a 4port 2a that will give max draw to one port. i have already tested it with a multimeter. they are like 22$
Haven't gotten a chance to test these yet: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0073FCPSK/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00
I definitely noticed my old htc wall charger is slower to charge the note2 than my nexus 7 wall charger.
Can you guys recommend best car/wall chargers as far as amps(Electrical jargon I'm not too familiar with)?
I was wondering if higher amp is better?
I realize the device will cut off current too high, but wondering what the max it can draw is? perhaps over 2amp?
Will it mess up my wifes Note 1 if she uses my charger? Will it charge hers faster?
no they will limit the charge so you dont have to worry about that. most devices can accept up to 2A at 5V anyways. That is the limit for the spec. The absolute is 2.4 A i think.

I got two of these when they were only $19.99 each.

You people seriously pay $20++ for wall chargers? LOL!
I got 5 of the Xentris 2A wall chargers, for $25 including shipping!

The joke may be on you if your chargers are cheaply made. It all comes down to the person if they want to stay safe or not. You can risk your battery's life dying earlier than normal, or just plain ol damaging your phone. If you've had luck with those, than more power to you.
If anyone was curious, there was substantial testing done to a few chargers that may give you insight on what to put your money on.

Fast charging cable?

I'm looking for a cable that I can use to take advantage of the full potential of my Anker wall charger. It uses Qualcomm quick charge but the cable it came with charges really slow. The lg stock cable is alright, but even my previous samsung cable is faster. Are there any cables out there that will allow my phone to charge faster? I hear a 28/24 gauge cable is faster, but is that dangerous to use?
Update: I ended up getting the 10ft Anker nylon braided charging cable because I have an Anker wall charger and I want a durable cable. I calculated the voltage drop over the length of the cable and decided it isn't enough to make a big difference so I went for it. Oddly enough I get a slightly higher charge rate than the 1ft cable that came with my wall charger! Thank you for all your input everyone!

I've seen good reviews of the Anker with its included cable.
How slow is it charging? You know that QC 2.0 is not fully implemented on the G4?
Ampere said around 500mah with the anker cable. But with my lg cable I got 1300+. This was all with the screen off, but when it's on for a while it goes down to 250mah. Does it really make that big of a drop? Is the g4 just a slow charging phone in general and there not much I can do to change that? I'm aware quick charge isn't fully implemented but I figured it should at least be reasonably faster than normal charging.

28/24???
If you want a good charging cable take one that is max AWG 20.
The higher the number is, the thinner cable inside is, the more it will "resist" to the current.
AWG20 will offer less resistance than AWG24 and so would charge faster.
Would this be a good cable to buy then? It is specifically for charging and the reviews seem promising.

It should since it is 20 AWG, but it is only for charging, no data on this one.
I personaly did bought an other brand :
http://www.amazon.com/Aukey-3-Pack-...UTF8&qid=1435505986&sr=1-2&keywords=Aukey+usb
It is not clearly stated in its description but it has :
28AWG for data
and
20AWG for charging
So it could charge as fast as the first one you quoted.
Yeah I don't need the data cable which is why I like that one. Does the length of the cable effect the charge speed noticeablely? I'm thinking of getting a long one

Yes.
Google a litle and you will find website that calculate* it for you.
* the loss of voltage, in heat etc... depending on the lenght and section of your cable
i only choose which highest stars in amazon
whatever anything i want to buy on internet,
i just choose something which highest stars in amazon.
Check the cables from portapow if your amazon has them - they are very good charging cables.

Seriously, all the cables that came with the Quick Charger 2.0 are the best and the stock cable too. I have purchased all kind of cables from Amazon including Portapow, which is the same as the QC 2.0 charger cable. The length of the cable also play a part. You really want to test it with a USB Doctor volt tester that support more than 7V. Ampere alone don't tell you the exact figure. I'll not spend any money for a standalone cable that claimed to be the fastest. I returned all those cable i got from Az.

Be CAREFUL w/ Fast Chargers for your car

Bought a few car chargers that were claiming to be fast charge or quick charge enabled.
Got a Spigen and couple no names brands. Unfortunately, as great as the Spigen looks, it did not fast charge.
You can see the results here https://youtu.be/KWts6ZCu2Gs
I was going to say check the cable as low quality cables can prevent fast charging or currents over 1A. But I looked up that Spigen charger & it's not listed as a QC2.0 fast charger, neither is that PowerGen, not on Amazon anyway.
The term fast charger is often used by manufacturers for chargers with output around 2A+. The 2.4A output per port alone is an indication that it's not a QC2.0 charger. It has to say QC2.0 for actual fast charging or look at the output. It has to have 9V output, some will have 12V output as well but isn't supported by Samsung phones anyway.
Thanks I assumed anything listed as fast charge would work as a qc2.0
Seems kind of misleading to say fast charge on the product listings.
Yeah it is misleading. Below is the one I have & it works great. Nice low profile size if you don't care about multiple ports. (There's multiple port models on the same page)

Got mine from the VZW store, the one with a red tip. No extra USB slot, but works great, and has an LED light on the tip, so it'll light up when you need a light or even as a flash light in the car. It supports QC 2.0 .

Yeah I got the Aukey one with two slots and both work with fast charging.
Yeah nothing is stopping them from calling anything a "fast charger". This basically just indicates that the port supplies more than the USB standard for 500mA. so a 2A charger will obviously be "fast"er

Does the Mix ship with a 3.0 fast charger?

This is something i haven't seen mentioned or confirmed in all the reviews i have read. I have read reviews of other xiaomi devices that said it was qc 3.0 enabled, but the charger that ships with the phone is not a quick charger and the user would have to buy their own to take advantage of this feature.
so does anyone know if the charger we receive with the mix is in fact a quick charger as the mi mix is on the devices that is qualcomm quick charge 3.0 enabled.

if i were to guess i do not think this charger is a quick charger based on my results compared to my nexus 6.

I got an Aukey QC3 5-Port Charger.
I'm trying to get my device empty right now (tough though as it lasts pretty long) and will test it afterwards.
Gesendet von meinem MIX mit Tapatalk
I compared the included charger with my Anker quick charge 3 charger using the Ampere app.
The given stats were marginally better with the included charger.
I'm not really sure what all the figures mean but they were there or there abouts the same, the Anker charger is Qualcom QC3 certified.
Not nearly getting the quoted charge times though with either charger.
At 53% it claimed 44 mins to 100%
Yes, it ships with a fast charger. It delivers:
5V - 2.5A (12,5W)
9V - 2A (18W)
12V - 1.5A (18W)
So yes, it's a QC2.0 fast charger.
I'm currently at 69% and on the normal charger it's 3 hours+, on the QC2.0 charger I have, it's 1.5 hours and it gave me the same for the included charger. Kind of disappointed that it's only 2.0.

What I dislike, and you can't use is the Wireless Charging with your phone and case, and a metal plate stuck to the back of the phone. You see, I really like the various magnetic holders in the car (I have one that works with the CD Slot of the vehicle to mount the holder, another that is a little ball mount that sticks to any flat service). They use a thin metal plate to mount to the back of the phone case, and the magnetic is part of the phone mount that is in the vehicle. If you place the phone with the holder and the metal plate on the wireless charger base, it will overheat both the charging base and the phone.
I REALLY like the magnetic phone mount, and do like wireless charging but it a moot point if you have a mounting plate on the back of your phone or case.
I am using amperage and I own two qualcom version 2.0 chargers one from my Nexus 6, and one I bought on amazon. The OEM Nexus 6 draws about 1.6amps on charge, and the Anker 2.0 draws under 300 mAH. The computer 3.0 USB port from a desktop draws 370mAH to charge the phone.
I will probably invest in a true oem qualcom 3.0 charger.

I'm revising my previous post, it seems that the provided charger may indeed be a QC 3.0.
I've been reading that if you use USB-c to USB-c cable instead of the provided USB-a to USB-c cable, you actually get charge rate.
I've also been reading up on the QC 3.0 vs 2.0. Both will max out at 18watts. But 3.0 has a variable voltage whereas 2.0 is fixed at 5V, 9V and 12V. You can see that in the below link, there's a nice table of Watts for each QC.
http://www.androidauthority.com/quick-charge-3-0-explained-643053/
However with USB-C to USB-C, it can charge at full 29Watts. That's a huge difference.
you can see that in the description provided by Anker here
https://www.amazon.com/Anker-Type-C-Delivery-Charger-PowerPort/dp/B01D8C6ULO
You can also see here in this device
https://www.amazon.com/Lumsing-Charge-Charger-Foldable-Macbook/dp/B01I1OIO4A
it says 48W of power, and allocates 19W for QC 3.0 which means the other Type-C port is allocated for 29Watts.
So I think I'm going to be looking for something with a direct USB-C port as a charger.
Certainly, this may be all for not if the Xiaomi Mi Mix is limited to 18W of input anyways.
I have the Anker USB-C to USB-C charger, my initial testing indicate that the original charger (China Plug) and my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge charger (UK Plug) are capable of doing 23.8 Watts max, i tried to monitor the difference and what I noticed is the Mi Mix original charger seems to be adjusting the charging power more often (not really sure why and whether it's good). My Anker USB-C to USB-C went up to 28.9 Watts Max. All chargers seems to scale down their charging rate after battery reach 80%+ so I think the best way to test is to empty the better and start from 0%. I doubt I will be doing that test though as it's quite hard to empty battery on Mix and I am pretty happy with my Anker charger so don't think I will be using Stock one or my Samsung one.
Unless I go on holiday with multiple devices that still use old USB port, Anker USB-C to USB-C is my go to charger.
So I think what you confirmed was that the mix can take power at 29 watts.
That's good to know.
Just received this wireless charging receiver today that claims to do fast charge

it does charge much faster, almost double of the one i posted originally in this thread. i'm getting a charge on it around 950ma which isn't too bad for wireless i don't think.
Is there an app I can use to see if this phone is quick charging ? I have a Google pixel charger USB c to USB c. Trying that out now .I can't really judge because this phone is at least 1000 mAh bigger than what I'm used to lol.

That's what I'm using too! I was at 24% battery, went to sleep for 4 hours with it charging, and I'm only at 74%. There has to be a way to know when we quick charge lol
