The 40W supercharge adapter that comes with the phone is quite large and bulky. I'd like to find something smaller that is easier to carry around.
Also, does anyone know of a car charger that supports the 40W supercharge?
Large and bulky!? The one I've got is like slightly larger than the small iPhone charger, which is very bad.

Apple chargers have always been huge.
My old QC3.0 charger is 20x35x55mm
My huwwei charger is 50x35x60.
So more than double the size.
Ofcourse the huawei can put out more power

Depends if you want to have two batteries in your pocket or one IMO. I'd go for the external battery personally. Looks sleeker and can be used with other devices with a micro usb port, like a blutooth headset.
Actually I got the black external one for emergencies. It has a cord stashed in it already so that's big plus there. I was looking at the usb rechargable ones around xmas time and it cost about 70bux USD.
Well, I'd prefer carrying less and not have wires. So I'd go with the first choice but if you need the extra power then the external battery would benefit you.
Maybe you should take a look at the Powerskin for the HTC Sensation.

It's not possible to be 1mm thin and 5000 ma . Dimensions are not important. I'm charging 2,3 times per day. Hope this clear the things.

Just got my external battery in black. Nice quality and thin like .25 of an inch. 4x2 inches. Nice and compact and can be charged by usb or microusb, which is cool! and the external battery came with an usb charging cable with a micro usb adapter but if you have a usb to usb, you can use that as well.
The once listed in the thread are too long to go in my tiny car and interfere with my cup holders. :fingers-crossed:
I don't know if its high voltage but it charges my iPad its a brand called Scosche its very low profile, blends in with interior. I like it, and it charges pretty fast as well.

This is what I was going to say, 2.1A output which is the highest I've seen and is what most tablets need.
Hey guys, i have a 2013 Moto X and i'd like to add qi charging. I notice that there are qi pads you can add to non-qi phones like this:
http://www.amazon.com/DigiYes®-Comp...F8&qid=1412291866&sr=1-5&keywords=qi+receiver
However, i notice the output is only 500 mah, which is kinda low. Anyone know of any good ones that output higher? Thanks!
Just saw this in my email and thought I'd share that these are now available.
If you know Monoprice, you know the stuff is always good.

Too bad it doesn't recharge at 3A. That'd be a bonus.

Only 2A on the input though.
Why can't anyone make a 5-6000 mAH fast charging Type-C battery pack. All of the ones so far are not even close to be pocketable.
Bigger pockets!

I am a large man. Skinny jeans would never, nor will have ever been a thing for me.
Thanks for the heads up on this. Just in time for my trip to Japan after Xmas. Almoat pulled trigger on the RavPower one but now its no longer listed on amazon lol
Looks good thanks for the headsup
just got this today. seems very nice and it shows "charging rapidly" .. its not the smallest or most compact but still pocketable. Height is shorter than the 6P, thicker of course. Glad monoprice released this just in time for my trip!
just an update on this .. I used on trip to Japan/Korea recently and while it worked fine, it doesn't seem to last as long as it should for 10,000mAh pack. Specs shows that it should be able to charge my 6P at least 2 times but after a single charge (not even from dead phone, I usually charge phone at around 20-25%), the battery would go from 4 bars to 1 bars.

Or maybe, just maybe, people want a smaller battery anyway. You know, just because.

I'm a full-time college student, and given the already massive amount of items I need to carry daily a huge power bank isn't ideal. I always have a Type-C charger for emergencies and some cables. I had the RavPower which was less than ideal to lug around all day on my already cramped Thule backpack. I would love to see a 5-6K slim Type-C power bank.
Anyone bought any docks for there Z5 im looking at a few and cant decide which one to get at the minute im leaning more towards this one but i think its the funky widget thats drawing me to it lol.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Charger-doc...8&qid=1453201075&sr=1-9&keywords=sony+z5+dock
always wanted to ask, does these even work with Quick Charge 2.0?
for example if i have an Aukey QC 2.0 wall charger and plug into the Sony dock stand, will the QC 2.0 still work?
Dunno I don't see why not.
6days and over 300 views and only 1 comment :/ doesn't anyone use a dock anymore?

Hey there, have been using this site for awhile but decided to register to answer your question as a first post haha
I've been looking for a good dock for the Z5 as well since I've used the Z3 with its magnetic charging dock... which was really nice.
Currently I'm using a charging dock from Devilcase, they make great aluminum bumpers for the Xperia line as well! (I am not affiliated with them in anyway)
Just google Devildock or the sort and you'll be able to find it.
It is a bit costly, but it's definitely high quality and supports QC2.0 (or whatever charging cable you use actually! Since you can "mod" the charging dock")
I got one here locally for $3 and this thing works well + looks great on my desk!
Hope that helps!
Mine got something like this link. Work just like a charm. Got it from ebay about 7 bucks.
You could pull footer component to make phone-stand wider. It will make this stand compatible with my Z5+case.
