Choetech charger. I got this charger from Amazon in about 3 days. It seems to be a quality charger both ends are usb c, even with a nearly full battery I was able to get 1. 130 amps thru it I'm sure I'll get more with a dead battery. It is 6 feet long and pretty good heavy cable and comes with a velcro cable tie. The packaging is nice too reminds me a bit of anker.

Oh right, good call
Can you test it with a dead or less than 40% battery? Want to see if it can pull the 3a

CheckR is only for USB Type-A to Type-C cables.
Type-C to Type-C cables are always compliant as I know.

I'm looking for a USB-C plug for my Nexus 6P. There are so few on the market and I would like to try one.
http://www.amazon.com/Charging-Qualcomm-Certified-Supported-included/dp/B017I7EX46/
Anybody tried this charger and cc cable? Reviews say it works pretty well, but is there any tool like CheckR to test and approve the usb-c plug and cable? This might be important to note, due to the whole fiasco with the cables which would damage the phone/charger due to incorrect build. Benson Leung only tests AC cables as far as I know.
While there is the potential for a USB C charger and cable to not be powerful enough to meet the 3amp charging spec, a type C to C cable is unlikely to fail to be compliant in the same way as the A to C cables are.
The A to C cables were mostly non compliant as they were being identified as being compatible with the USB C spec and thus being able to supply 3amps of power, whereas in reality cables/chargers with type A connectors max out at 2.4 amps or in most cases a lot less.
A-C cables required a 56K resistor, but most companies initially used a 10K one which was the issue. C-C cables don't need a resistor the way that the A-C ones do,so they should all be compliant from what I understand.

I have been looking at the end chotech charger on amazon for 2 days now trying to figure out if it's OK or not since it's not on the Benson list of approved chargers.
Are you saying that if you get a charger like the one in the original posters link that has a USB c port you'll be fine because there is no USB A cable in the equation?

It should be fine as long as it only supports 5V/3(like the Choetech does) and not a different quick charging method like QC 2.0/3.0.

One more question, I found a C 2 C cable and it's 3Meters long. Does the length of the cable matter?

Even if it supports Qualcomm's QuickCharge, isn't part of the QC spec that there's a chip inside the charger to identify QC-capable devices and otherwise act as a 'normal' charger?
I would think so long as it supports 5V/3A you would be fine no matter what other standard it supports.
Here's a link to a google doc that details cables and charges that have been tested. It says if the item is compliant or not.

I don't see an issue, but keep in mine that longer cables could have a current drop due to increased resistance over the length. It shouldn't be a huge amount so I wouldn't worry about it. I use the Google 6ft C-C cable and get the full 3A when my battery is below 40%.

That's correct, but I don't want to fully recommend something that could cause an issue. I have a charger with QC 3.0 over the Type-C port and I have 0 issues using it. It still violates the USB standard to have QC 2.0/3.0 over a Type-C port, but that doesn't mean it won't work. It works, but could potentially cause an issue at some point. I can link you the post by Benson Leung along with the appropriate USB standard if you need it.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019C23ZGW
Still waiting to receive mine. Obviously it's not up to spec because of the type-c + QC 3.0 standard on the same port but hopefully it works fine. And I also really want that extra type A port and foldable pins. I'm also thinking of getting a Robin when it comes out which uses type-C but with QC 2.0.

I haven't tested that charger, but I do have the exact same model with 2 Type-A ports instead of 1 A and 1 C. Maybe Tronsmart will send me one to test out You can see a review of the version I have in my signature (last link that's says Tronsmart Titan). I have their car charger which also has the same voltages over the Type-C port and it charges my 6P just fine even though its technically not in spec.

Yeah saw that when you first posted it. I've had other Tronsmart chargers and cables before. I also bought the Titan when it first came out too and they haven't failed or anything yet. I'm just a little cautious since type-C is new. Hopefully Tronsmart sends you the wall charger to test. I won't get mine for a few weeks due to international shipping and everything.
I've got the Choetech C to C charger and cable. Would recommend it without any hesitation. Build quality is on par with the stock charger, but nothing more. It's not braided or anything, so it's a normal cable with a normal charger

I guess we will see what happens. The Titan is a beast, but I can't use the full potential is has with 2 phones. The wall charger should work fine if it's anything like their car charger.
I would like to buy a 10 ft wall charger for my pixel XL. Wasn't sure if it needed to be USB C to USB C or what so I can get the fast charging capabilities still. Anyone have any suggestions for longer chargers? The stock one that came with the phone just isn't long enough.

Does it come with the wall adapter? Because the only one I have has only usb c connection on it. The one that came with my phone.
I hear ya on the charger that came with the phone, they could have definitely made the cord longer.
I plugged it in for the first time and was like WTF . Barely reaches to a table.
Why not just use a cheap two prong extension cord and plug your charger into that?

It does not come with a wall adapter. You'd have to buy a USB -a adapter to USB -c or just buy another wall adapter.

so that I could the factory wall adapter.
I'm coming from a nexus 6p so I have existing usb type c chargers in place. The only way I can get my s8+ to fast charge is with the supplied cord. The supplied USB c cord with the nexus is type c on both sides and refuses to charge at all. A Car charger that fast charged my nexus prompts my s8 that its slow charging.

That a very good point, crap USB "C" cables are floating around everywhere online. Your best bet, OP, is to get one from a well known company. I got Anker cables, they seem pretty heavy duty and have not had a single problem with fast charging. Another company is Google, bit expensive but they make good stuff.
Iorange cables have been working for me
So far I've used 2 different cables and 3 different wall adapters. I use the one that came with the phone. Obviously that one works fine.
Then I bought a 6 foot is type c cable off Amazon and use the wall adapter from a galaxy s6.
I also tried my note 4 wall adapter and cable with the micro usb to type c adapter that came with the phone and it works fine as well.
What's a good wireless charging pad with type c cable and power brick? Please post link where to buy, thank you.
I'm using all the cables I had laying around from previous devices. Most are usb micro b, using with type c adapters I got online. All are fast charging. Also ordered a couple type c cables online . They also work. Your problem may be your wall wart. If it's not a samsung adaptive fast charger it may not fast charge. All my wall warts are samsung adaptive, also my car adapter is a samsung. Idk if the type c changed that or not.

Mine have been all over the shop too. I have a post in this forum regarding it. I can't get any charge into my S8+ using 3rd party cables and the original charger with fast charge turned on. It detects the charger but percentage doesn't move. Turning off fast charge works fine though. But it should be detecting fast charge compatibility and going back to normal charging if it's not. But no go with that. Used to work fine with my S7e
I have already misplaced the stock cord that came with my 8+. I've been using my LG V20 cord and standard micro usb cords with the usb-c adapters, all just fine.
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S8+
I ordered a cord pack off amazon and none of the cords worked.
I left a bad review and the company contacted me to give me a refund and they send me a new cable that they claim they just made cause of S8 plus complaints.
The new cord works great. So I guess the S8 plus can be picky for USB type c cords.

I don't see anything anywhere in either products' listings that would suggest that those are actually QC4 chargers, however, as Qualcomm's specifications indicate, QC4 does support USB Power Delivery, which is what everyone should be using anyway.
I've been charging my U12+ on PD for the last week and it tops up blazing fast.

Yes you are probably right. I would wait for a Qualcomm certified charger anyway. Just saw someone post about the first one linked and they seemed to know it was 4.0. No reviews or comments anyhow, I would never purchase something with no reviews lol.
As for Anker, I've had issues with their cables and HTC phones. They seem to work for a little while then they stop. They also wear out quickly to where the micro usb connection becomes loose and falls out easily. Seems it's hard to find a good cable.

The clips on the micro USB wore out quickly and would not snap in like they are supposed to so they fall out. I still use micro USB for non-phone devices. But they guaranteed the cables would work with HTC devices since HTC devices are very finnicky with charging cables, if it's not HTC oem, most of the time they do not work right. My first pack I ordered from them, a pack with different sizes wouldn't work, they said that was the older style so they were great and offered me a upgraded version for free, like six different cables and they were the ones that worked but didn't last long. Anyway, the USB-C should be much better since they attach much differently.
It is hard finding a good micro USB cable.
Today I ordered here:

And today I got this one....

I don't have a suitable cable yet, but I'll get one.

Thanks for this find! I also bought these 2 chargers and am waiting on them to be delivered. As for the cable - I think this cable should work - https://www.anker.com/products/variant/powerline-ii-3ft-usb-c-to-usb-c-3-1/A8485011
What do you think?

I used it to test recharging in the car, and it seemed to me very fast

I am not a fan of using adapters but thanks for sharing the parts you are using. I emailed Anker support and requested that they recommend the best cables to use with the Hama QC 4.0 chargers and will post an update once I hear back from them.
Cheers
