The one that came with my pocket camera takes about twice as long to charge the phone as the OEM charger does. The phone gets a lot hotter with the oem unit. If I'm not in a rush, I use the slower one, on general principal.Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722792638246578812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2807403883562053852.post-82725360263724851062016-11-19T14:35:18.966-07:002016-11-19T14:35:18.966-07:00USB standards now have a whole bunch of charging o...USB standards now have a whole bunch of charging options. The actual charging should be regulated by the phone, not the charger. The charger just recognizes a device which can take a fast charge, and provides the voltage and maybe (I am not sure) the right current limit.<br /><br />I use these at home and in my car, and get very fast charging on my Samsung S6.StormCchaserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02998174514362089471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2807403883562053852.post-56397679391889583732016-11-18T22:43:31.079-07:002016-11-18T22:43:31.079-07:00Bear in mind that fast charging a battery may not ...Bear in mind that fast charging a battery may not be a good thing. It certainly isn't for lead acid types, and I suspect that it is true for batteries in general, as they are currently constituted.<br /><br />Also, the faster it charges, the more heat is generated. This may be a bad thing, especially if it is contained in a protective sleeve or container. Electronics dislike heat, as do most plastics. If it is not an official branded charger, you may want to check the specs for your phone batt.Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722792638246578812noreply@blogger.com
