Anyone recommend a dual usb/Android car charger. Preferably a 2 amp if it exists. The wife and I both have galaxy's an S3 and an S4 and it would be great if we could both charge of the same car charger. If one does not exist I suppose I could use 2 separate 2 amp ones since we have dual charger ports in the van one battery and one engine
Thanks
Monoprice has a dual port 4.2a charger on sale right now for under 10 bucks.
Lots of 3.1 amp dual chargers on eBay for like 5$. They are usually 2.1 amp on one port and 1 amp on the other port. But 4.2 amp dual charger for 10 isn't a bad deal to be honest.

I use this in my car to charge my phone and power my bluetooth device at the same time.

I have that one as well and it seems to work well.
I am toying with the idea of doing a mount with a wireless charger, but not until the Dallas weather stops trying to broil me in the garage (November? ).

I think the reason they mark one as Ipad is because the ipad requires a min of 2.1a to charge. Smartphones require less. But I don't think the usb port connector is any different. I am pretty sure you could still charge any other device through the port marked as ipad as well. I'm headed out of town for the weekend but I can try charging my other phone through the 2.1a port and let you know

I bought one of these : http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00AYTLSRQ/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It works great, it's 2.1a so iPads and some other tablets can also charge on it, and it's very small (it sticks out even less than the original cigar lighter )
It charges quite fast as well.
So I have a Nexus 4 and Got the new Nexus 7 2013 edition. I'm now in the market for a charging pad that can do both of the devices at once. Any suggestions?
Just got the n7 myself too. Its on its way. Wireless charging might not be a deal breaker, but my mattress is tall and I hate plugging in and unplugging every time I want to use it from bed. Hopefully there is a good dual qi charger for these 2 devices.

I found the Energizer® Dual Inductive Charger is there anything similar?

This is the only one that I've seen that does 2 at once. I have it and it charges mine and girl friend's n4 great at the same time. I don't have a new nexus 7 to try though.

Does the N5 holds on the N4 wireless charger?
Does it work ok?
Thanks
Yes

There's no reason why it shouldn't work. I fully plan on using my Nexus 5 with the LG WCP-700 wireless charger that I've been using with my Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 for many months now.

Works great here, no complaints. Seems to "stick" to the charger well and have not had any slipping off the charger.

Great to hear that... my little charger have been sitting there for month with no one to charge
Mine works just fine. It doesn't stick to the charger like my Nexus 4 did which means I can pick it off one handed without lifting up the charger too. It doesn't slip off though.

Samsung offers two wireless charging pads. One is mini and the other is standard size. Is it just the size that is the difference? Does one charge faster than the other?

It looks like the mini only does 1amp charging while the standard does 2amp charging. In short, the standard will charge your phone faster.

That's totally lame. I was going to get the mini just because it looks better and more professionally styled. But I guess not anymore.

Where did you get that info from? In the description of the mini one it clearly states is comes with a 2A charger!
My understanding is that the mini is a new model released with the S5 whereas the other has been around for at least a year now.
Even if it comes with a 2A charger it only charges at 1amp. It's a limitation of wireless charging

Well that kinda blows. And makes wireless charging a whole lot less attractive.

I guess that sorta makes sense. I figured I'd use it more like drop my phone down to charge up a bit real quick before heading back out the door. Kind of a busy life style type thing.

Ya, it's not good for that. It won't charge it as fast then

The S5 has more than 2 points of contact for the wireless charging back. Not sure if it is for nfc, but maybe the doubled the charging capabilities by having two separate charging coils?
Edit: This is my first post is 5 years, I feel like a lurker.
The power of pad doesn't matter, the coil from the back of the case is the charging source. So for s4 note 3 it's 650 mamps and the new one for s5 is 700 mamps( if i spoted right in the pictures). The difference is in aspect and size only.

Are they up to 1A now? Last I checked, there wasn't a wireless charger anywhere that charged faster than 850mAh. Which is only 30% as fast as the USB 3.0 charging of 2500mAh.

If you look at pictures the S5 official wireless cover charges at 760ma.

1amp is theoretical charging speed.
Just like how the phone stock charger is 2amps, it will max out at around 1.8 amps

crazy deal alert!!!!

$5 each and if you buy 3 or more, you get 25% off, so I got 3 for $11.25
Here is a review of it
http://unleashthephones.com/2013/01/26/nokia-fatboy-wireless-charging-pillow-review/
Get them while they last!!
I have three wireless chargers. The small original Samsung, one Nillkin and a noname. I am using the original charging back from Samsung. I am very happy with the small original Samsung charger. The S5 gets much less warm than with the both others and it stops charging at 100%.
I had it on the Nillkin over night and the next day when it has been at nearly 100% already in the evening it was extrem hot at the morning and still charging but it showed 100% but not the full message at all. Very suspicious. With the noname I very often have the wireless charging detected message when it comes over 9x% so it looks as if the charger often "looses the connection" to the wireless charging back cover.
The original small Samsung charger says 5,3V and 2A on the back and it loads at maximum wireless power with the original back cover and the original power supply. For me this is the best combination. The only thing is, that you cannot use the S5 very well while charging because of the small charging pad. I most time take the charging pad with the S5 in one hand so it cannot tilt.

3 coils vs 1 coil.
3 coils is better with cases and easier to place the phone on it.

Both samsung charger are 1 coil.
3 coil offer a wide surface detection, but does not mean it's better that a single coil charger.
Probably is not the best forum to ask, I recently got this wireless charger for my Nexus 4. It looks slick and price wise is very affordable. Should really work fine, but I am having this issue where it says it is charging but after a while, is not charging any at all. I tried it aligning with the induction coil in many positions but so far no luck.
However, my phone is indeed charged with a LG wireless charger. So it is not the phone.
Has anyone use this charger with the Nexus 4?
Possibly not supplying enough power. Compare out power specs of ur stock charger with the new one. Should be on the devices. Could be the plug itself
