Best car charger?

I jave an USB port in my car, but the output is not enough, it barely holds the charge on my G2x. Do you guys know any car charger that will charge the G2x relatively fast?
Thanks

Agreed, I have one and it works great - charges just as fast as the stock travel charger. Just be sure to order directly from Amazon for the legit OEM charger

I use this one from Best Buy:
http://m.bestbuy.com/m/e/product/detail.jsp?skuId=1114106&pid=1218221913668#product-overview-open
It doesn't say in the specs on Best Buy's site but it outputs a total of 2amps. Your phone will draw only what its capable of, but the 2amp output will allow your phone to draw at its maximum charge rate. It also has a USB port on the charger for charging a second device. If you 2 devices are charging at once then it splits the 2amps between the 2 devices for a max of 1amp each. If only one device is plugged in then the full 2amps is directed to that device.
The Motorola charger linked to above has an output of 950mah which is just shy of the stock wall charger that comes with the G2X. It will suffice and charge fine, but for max charge rate find a charger that is rated over 1amp. The one I linked you to works great. I've been using it since I got my G2X in April and have had no issues whatsoever.

I notice the one I linked to doesn't list the specs so I took a pic of the tag on mine to share

Just curious if you know the charging specs on this one? Since its USB its gonna be 5V output, but I'm wondering the output amperage. Its the amps that makes it a faster or slower charge. Phones are designed to handle a certain max amperage when charging and will accept up to that amount. For instance if the phone can accept 1.5 amps charging, then a 2amp charger would allow you to charge at the max rate. It won't take the full 2amps but having a 2amp charger will ensure that there's enough juice flowing to let it pull the 1.5amps its designed for.
So I'm just wondering the output amps of this charger if you know it.

Means it'll charge pretty slow and if you use the phone while charging it may not charge at all because the phone will be using juice faster than the battery pack can carge it.
I have a 5000mah pack that charges at 1 amp and if i turn my screen brightness higher than half and use the phone it will only maintain the current charge and wont increase at all. Push the brightness to max and it actually drains... drains slowly but still drains. at only 500mA the same thing would happen but worse.

I used this to charge one of the METRO cheap ANDROID phone from a co-worker and in 20 minutes is was almost at 50%.

Then, sometimes isn't it kinda bad on your phone if it charges too fast, like the phone can't handle all the volts or whatever?

The voltage is a pretty universal 5V. The difference is the amperage.
Imagine a hose, voltage is the pressure and amps are the amount of water (energy, really). So same pressure just less water (smaller hose width for example).

Correct.
The phone's charge circuit has an algorithm which monitors and manages battery charging and discharging. According to the maintenance manual (which I've posted a link to in the G2X forum), the charge circuit can handle well over 5V input.
An external battery pack can be constructed with rechargeable AA or AAA cell NICAD or NIMH batteries (not Li-ion or LiPo), a multi-cell battery holder box with an on-off switch and which enables the batteries to be taken out for recharging and a cable with a USB connector for the phone. A battery pack should use 5 or 6 batteries. I recommend Sanyo Eneloop batteries which have very good characteristics for that purpose and are readily available. I use them in everything which requires a battery and use a charger which charges 4 of them in one hour but I've also used a 15 minute charger without any problem.

Here's a picture a took from the charger that comes with the Brazilian dual chip variant.
It's the official Moto G charger, but I guess it only comes with the Brazilian version.
So, your answear would 5,1V or 850mah

Not quite. It can't draw the current it needs if the charger is rated lower than what it needs. A 5v 500mA (0.5A) charger will take far too long to charge this phone or even not charge it at all if the phone is being used while connected to the charger.

Ye, this is the reason I actually asked, since I wanted to know what's the minimum mA.
Luckily, i recently found a white usb wall adapter and just checked and it is 1000mA(1A) so all good hehe :highfive:

According to Motorola Support anything between 500mA - 1.5A should be fine and higher values will be limited to 1.5A. I cant post links yet, but info was found on MotorolaSupport twitter.

I have been cross using my Nexus 7 (2012) and Samsung S4 with each other's charger all the time in the past, it didn't do any harm. Now I am using Nexus 7 charger to charge moto g

Not sure about this, but tried Alcatel charger (5V/400mA) and it took extra 50 min compare to HTC charger (5V/1000mA{1A})...

Any Motorola charger with the correct micro-USB tip will charge your Moto G. You will see the best results when the output of the charger is between 500 mA and 1.5 A. The higher the output, the faster your Moto G will charge.
If your charger output is higher, the MOTO G will automatically restrict the charging rate. If your charger is lower, it will simply take longer to reach a full charge.

According to Motorola, the Moto G will automatically restrict the charging rate to a maximum of 1500mA. Therefore, 2A chargers should only charge at 1500mA. This is within the allowable range listed on the Motorola support site for the Moto G. So, no direct damage to the phone circuitry or immediate damage to the battery should occur by using a higher amperage, faster 2A charger.
But, the latest official Motorola charger on the U.S. website is only 1200mA. Using a 2A charger to charge at the 1500mA maximum allowable rate may cause more long-term reduction in battery capacity than using the lower charging rate of 1200mA. See this other XDA post for my logic in coming to this conclusion ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2564158 ).
UPDATE and CORRECTION:
I have more authoritative information directly from Battery University that changes the conclusion I draw above based on my effort to extrapolate from the Battery University website article.
The extrapolation I did in the post listed above was based on the additional loss of long-term battery capacity cited when going from a 1C to 2C charging rate. But according to direct communication from Battery University, when charging at a rate below .7C there should be no measurable improvement to long-term capacity by using slower charging rates. Charging above .7C would still be expected to add more stress to Lithium Ion Polymer batteries and likely add to long-term reduction of capacity.
So, what this means for the Moto G and Nexus 5 is that there should be no measurable difference between charging with 2A, 1.2A, 1A, or 850mA chargers as far as effect on long-term battery capacity goes. Both the Moto G and Nexus 5 are supposed to automatically restrict the charge rate at 1500mA even when using a faster charger, which is just at or below .7C for both phones. So, as long as the charger dependably keeps to 5V, a higher amperage 2A charger will be faster but pose no problem to long-term capacity.
----------------
Using the 850mA charger referenced above as shipping in Brazil should be fine to charge with in about 2-3 hours. The only issue is that the phone would need to be turned off during charging in order to not take too long -- which is a good practice anyway.

The original charger that came with my phone has: 550 mA.

550 mA charger is fine for Moto G, it will just take longer (like 3-4 hours). If your charging over night than it's not an issue. Just plug it in and leave it on over night. The Moto G will automatically stop charging when it is complete. Only advice I've seen, is that it is not good to leave a phone on the charger for long periods (e.g. over 24 hours).

Quick Charge 2.0 / Turbo Charge enabled portable battery pack?

Has anyone seen a Quick Charge 2.0 certified portable battery pack /external battery for sale?
I've seen plenty that say "with quick charging capabilities" but none that actually seem to have the qc2.0 certification.
Can anyone point one out?
Thanks!

I don't think any currently exist, looking at Qualcomm's Quick Charge 2.0 site. The Anker Astro E4 alleges that it can charge a device up to 5V/3A.
http://www.amazon.com/13000mAh-Exte...KHJW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1417704114&sr=8-1
The Motorola Turbo Charger, from what I can see online, is a 5V/3A charger which is the "basic" implementation of QC2.0 (you can confirm if you have it). So the E4 should, in theory, get you the same charging speed. That said, even at 2A the Moto X should charge in just over an hour since it has a fairly small battery.

Yes in theory but I believe and read somewhere that it's not just the amps being output, that the charger and the device recognize the qc2.0 software.

Quick Charge 2.0 isn't just amps, and as far as I know, nothing pulls more than 2A over micro USB, maybe the One plus one, but that uses an entirely different quick charging method.
Quick Charge 2.0 instead changes the voltage to deliver more electrical power to the device. Instead of 5v-2A, it can switch to 9v-2A or 12v-1.5A.
I haven't seen any battery based chargers that use QC2.0 yet.

Right, but like I said, according to Qualcomm's site there are no true QC2.0 batteries.
And yes, part of the QC2.0 spec is allowing for higher voltage charging, which gets around the voltage drop caused by pumping higher current through a wire. But there is also an allowance for standard 5V chargers at 3.0A.

Do we have a working charging meter app like current widget yet for this device? I have a 3.1A charger and have not experienced higher charging speeds.

If anyone finds one make sure to post it!

I'm just bumping this in case anyone has seen or heard of one.

It's legit, as it's been certified by Qualcomm. Unfortunately, the only place I've seen it offered for order is on alibaba, where there's a minimum 1000 unit order.
Edit - had found this thread when searcdhing for the pack, and posted, then realized there was a more updated thread reflecting the same. Sorry for the necro.

I was able to obtain a small quantity of these MP5200Q from the manufacturer. I am keeping a couple and selling the rest for cost plus fees.

I didn't say it was. It's not QC2.0, but it has the exact same output specs as the Turbo Charger. I've actually gotten a quicker charge out of my Anker PowerIQ wall charger (which is only up to 2.4A) than I do out of my Turbo Charger, probably because the Turbo Charger slows the charge as it gets closer to full. The Anker Astro E4 is also over twice the capacity of the Incipio.

Good find, but $90?! Holy moly. The battery is already portable. At that price, I'll just leave the phone plugged into the battery for a little bit longer while I'm carrying it around!

The charger supports up to 30W, not the Pixel, the Pixel maxes out at 23W

A 36W charge wouldnt take over an hour to fully charge a battery at 46%

So get 30W google charger or any USB-PD 3.0 (PPS)

Because the screenshot was taken right when the charger was connected and the time wasn't calculated straight away. It takes 1-2 mins to provide accurate information on the charging time based on an average charging speed.

In nearly every case, you can`t read the correct charging speeds by Software.
You need a good USB Powermeter or a power measure device on the wall.

Alright, best I can do with the Google 30W charger: 19W (Accubattery) or almost 21W with the meter. Still 2W are missing but I guess I can live with that.
