Hey guys,
Being a lot on the road, I was started to look for fast charging charger for my car.
I would appreciate if anyone with an experience with one of those chargers will share them.
Thank you

i have been using this one for the last few weeks .. got it on amazon for 16 bucks
Onite 28.5w Dual USB Rapid Car Charger
Bought this one for a road trip and it performed very well. The device doesn't recognize it as a fast charger, but still charges the device from empty to full in about an hour. Also, thanks to KT kernel, I was able to determine that it pulls down just as much current as the OEM charger :good:
Thank you guys

A few months ago I picked up a qualcomm quickcharge compatible charger for around 35 euros including shipping from the US, couldn't find anything cheaper, for a bit less you can pick up an official samsung fastcharger charger
You can't beat this Fast Charger from Verizon. Even has a bright push button LED light on the micro usb end, perfect for plugging the phone in complete darkness.
I got one on amazon (i think) with 4 ports, the bottom being quick charge. Works great. Normally only have quick charge plugged in but its nice to have a few extra spots. even full everything charges nice. I"ll see if I can find a link
THis is what i got and it works great.

For mine, I got a Quick Charge car charger from tech matte. It's pretty standard. It does quick charge, so that's all good. It was only $10, which I think is a pretty decent price.
You can get one from Amazon or eBay I think, and there are so many good products on it, very convenient to choose from.

I know this is a bad subject to bring into discussion but notice the S4 charger for the wall charger charges faster I bought a generic car charger for my last phone and it couldn't even keep up with the charge if I was using the GPS...... Any idea what a good car charger brand is or even Samsung makes for for the S4? I really would like a nice car charger that won't screw things up with my phone thanks all if you can just put your input if not thats ok too...
i bought this http://www.amazon.co.uk/MOFRED®-Mic...sr=1-1&keywords=samsung+galaxy+s4+car+charger should be good

I am also looking for a car charger that quickly charges the battery like the stock wall charger. I went from 1% to 50% in around 45 minutes with the stock wall charger the other day.

its 1 amp.
get at least a 2 amp charger @ OP
I agree 2Amp tends to be the way to go from what im learning but still looking for a great car charger lol
Is there a way within the UI to see how much charge the phone is getting? I have a generic USB car charger and I want to know if it's .5, 1, or 2 amps.
Generally I'm happy if I can use Google Maps navigation on a charger without losing any battery % but it would still be nice to know if I'm getting the fastest charge possible.

Generic car chargers, usually offers 700mah or 1000mah for the most.
It seems that getting 2000mah charger is the only good solution.

I have the same one. Works great.
Just keep in mind battery monitor widget does a best guess calculation on Samsung devices because Sammy refuses to put the code in that reports the actual current. Back on GB on my Captivate one of the roms had the code and it was nice but Samsung in its infinite wisdom deems it more important to include 500MB of bloat and omit this tiny important driver.

Can someone recommend a car charger that I can buy in the UK that can charge the S4 reliably at 2A? I tried a few so-called 2A chargers, but they are only able to deliver 1.1A (as measured by the Galaxy Current App), while the wall charger delivers 1.9A.

Pleomax is apparently a subsidiary company of Samsung, so I'm expecting compatibility/functionality to be good.
I ordered the following holder to go with it too, from the same manufacturer and seller, its currently in the same shipment as the charger:

Just to point out.... While you do need a 2A+ charger, the cable also plays a huge factor. I've measured anywhere from 460mA to 1900mA depending on the cable plugged into it.

can you take a picture of your charger of dose it say Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 on it ?
Anyone in the US (not sure about other regions) can waltz into a verizon store and pick up one of these:
http://www.verizonwireless.com/acce...er-with-fast-charge-technology-for-micro-usb/
Price isn't terrible at ~$35. I'm not on verizon and I don't like all the red, but who cares at the end of the day. Also, the USB cable it comes with has a light on the end. which is handier than I thought it would be. IE: stabbing your phone in the butt when trying to charge it in the dark. I do not regret getting this charger for a second.
I ordered this one. http://www.shopandroid.com/ventev-q...llport-micro-usb-wall-charger/5A255A20425.htm

(If you can't catch it then it's a quick charge... lol!) Yes there is a way, if you plug in a slow charger you will get a pop up message telling you that you are using a slow charger. I charge my m9 from my PC as it has a built-in USB port for fast charging phones, which can even be used if the PC is powered off.
Will this charger charge the M9 faster? I don't know if it supports that Qualcomm fast charging 2.0 though?

I've had great results from the Choe brand QC chargers LINK. Used it with my M8 now using for my M9.
I got the Anker Qualcomm 2.0 Quick Charger.
It works. Light glows green when my M9 is plugged in. Charges stupid fast.
Takes up one space on the power strip.

I bought that same charger. Would you be willing to download the free app called Ampere and see what it reports for current when you are using that charger? I am having a very weird issue where Ampere is only reporting about 250mA with that charger but if I use a different charger that is not Qualcomm certified I get upwords of 1500 milliamps. I'm wondering if Ampere is just not capable of handling the calculation on a phone with the Qualcomm Quick Charge technology or if there is something wrong with the charging of my phone.
I just bought these two, and it said I will have them by Sunday; it's Friday!
Two fast charge ports on the wall charger and 1 on the car charger, and the rest of the ports are 2.4 amp 5 volt.

I just bought iVoler quick charger to try it because the price was low and the reviews said it was quality made. I Just received this the other day, and I plugged in my Z4 Tablet and it said Z4 Tablet detected, so it indeed does support the Qualcomm Quick Charging feature! Charging was fast and held strong with my Z4 Tablet. Charging the battery from 0 to 25% in about 19 minutes. And the 6 foot USB cable is of good quality and really nice. It also fits into my Z4 Tablet with a nice click, and fits well around my case. I will definitely buy more of these!
The great product need to be shared.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00WSLRCWI
is safe to use ? I'm just wonder why Sony has not advertised this feature
Well, the Z4 is listed as supporting quick charge on Qualcomm's website: https://www.qualcomm.com/products/snapdragon/tablets/sony-xperia-z4-tablet.
I have tried 2 quick charge chargers from amazon so far with the z4 tablet.
No problems and it works with most recent xperias and other snapdragons.

What kind of charging times are you seeing with the quick charge 2.0 with a battery that big? i.e. 80% in x mins from empty etc. I have been searching for an answer to this but it doesn't really seem to be posted in times but percents.
Thanks

You are welcome. It is a great charger. I use it with my LG G4 as well.
So, the Sony charger that comes with the Z4T isn't a Qualcomm Quick Chare 2.0 charger, right? A quick check says 1,5A / 5V and that's also what I measured with a USB gadget. I got the same results with my QC 2.0 charger from Samsung...
I'll try it again with another QC 2.0 charger.
/edit: yeah, the shipped charger isn't QC 2.0. Not sure why my Samsung charger didn't work out though, but I'll test my Pisen QC 2.0 charger tomorrow

Any charger that supports 2A and has USB port works fine. Use my sammy USB cable to plug in. Charges well even in daylight with satellite gas is active.
You will definitely want one with Qualcomm QuickCharge 3.0, it makes such a difference in charge speed. I have this one: http://amzn.to/2f9KVh0, I love Anker for all my charging needs! It costs a bit more than the other options but the perfect 5-star reviews speak for themselves You will also want to get a 3ft USB A to C cable like this one: http://amzn.to/2f9KVh0

No way! I call you on that one. Our 3 year old devices can't quick charge without damage. Please do not post such info without knowing 1st hand. Our custom kernels limit fast charge to 1.8 A for a good reason.
Sorry I thought this was the Galaxy Note 8 (new phone) forum. Confusing from the XDA app... Having a QuickCharge charger won't hurt on old devices, they will charge at the normal 2.1 or 1.8 amps. But I agree in this case (old tablet) it won't help (but it's not like the newer charger will damage the device--they scale back their charging gracefully).
