Reddit reviews Fast Car Charger, AUKEY 36W Dual Port Quick Charge 3.0 USB Cell Phone Car Adapter for iPhone 11 Pro Max, Samsung Note10+ / S10, Google Pixel 4 XL, iPad, AirPods Pro, and More

Bruh. Let me introduce you to the concept of quick car chargers. Your phone battery will never die again while you're on the road.

I actually have 2 made by Aukey. One at work and one in the car. They work perfectly fine. I have used them since day 1. I have my A7 since the 1 week it was sold. I actually have 3 of the AC plugs.

This is my setup:

This magnet car mount

Stick the magnet on the case not directly to the device, otherwise you won't be able to use wireless charge/nfc

Aukey car charger

The magnet is really strong, I recommend it to my friends & they're all happy, I use this setup for 2 years & I'm really happy with it.

This one.

Works great so far

Great question. I use:

Charger: Aukey CC-T8. It has worked fairly well. Charging is slow while I'm using GPS and Bluetooth, but it works. I use the USB-A to -C cable that Google gave out with their Fi Lego set last fall.

Mount: WizGear Extra Slim Universal magnetic mount. I have it stuck at an angle on the top of my gear shift. Puts the phone in a convenient spot, and is out of the way when not in use.

I put the larger of the included plates under the back cover of the phone, and it mounts great to this (and other) magnetic mounts, and does not interfere with any antennas.

Case: RhinoShield CrashGuard. I'm satisfied with the protection, and this doesn't interfere with the metal plate & magnet. (Obviously with a standard case, you can put the metal plate between the case and the phone.)

This was a great question. I'm looking forward to seeing other's responses.

I wonder if it varies by when the car was built. I just went out and tested and I got [email protected] from the port under phone chargers and then [email protected] from a 2.1A adapter that I plugged into the 12V outlet under the armrest.

Measured on my iPhone 8 @ 65% battery SoC.

Pay attention - QC 3.0 is AWESOME. I have this one but there are a lot of others out there. The most helpful is probably the car charger I got since you need the extra bump for short periods of time.

Make sure you get a Benson Leung validated 3.0 Type C cable.

^Lots of links but no affiliate codes

Check out Benson Leung's reviews of USB-C cables on Amazon. He's a Software Engineer for Google and he reviews cables to confirm that they are designed to the actual USB-C Spec. https://www.amazon.com/gp/profile/amzn1.account.AFLICGQRF6BRJGH2RRD4VGMB47ZA

Any actual USB-C spec compliant cable will do.

I use this one specifically: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M6361FG
I got the 2 pack, 1 gold 1 black, got the gold one in my car and use the black one at home.

And then in my car I use this car charger: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01B2BMIMS

At home I'm just using the stock charger that came with the device, but I plan to buy a QC 3.0 charger in the near future.

You've pretty much figured it out. In the photo you posted, you unplug the smaller cable on the bottom, the one with the white plug. Then you plug in an adaptor, the other end of the adaptor will have a male 3.5mm audio jack that you plug into your phone. It's pretty simple.

If you want the cheapest possible device, I found this one for $23. It also comes with a lightning connector for charging modern Apple devices, and if you don't need it you can simply tuck the cable behind the head unit and cover it up when you replace the panel. However, if you're playing from an Apple device, I'd recommend this one. For $38, you should be able to control the playback with the buttons on the car's head unit and steering wheel. With the cheaper one only the car volume buttons will work, this one should allow you to pause and skip tracks with the car buttons instead of doing it on the phone itself. Alternately, there is this $36 one which features an SD card slot and a USB socket so you can load song files onto an SD card or USB stick as well as use the AUX jack. You can use the car's buttons to control USB/SD playback, not sure if they will work with the AUX input. You can plug a cable into the USB port to charge your device, although if you want it to charge quickly a dedicated car charger that plugs into a 12V power outlet (cigarette lighter) like this is a better option.

There are also adaptors with more features like bluetooth connectivity and a microphone for handsfree calls, though these typically run north of $100.

What type of phone do you have? I would recommend a qualcom quick charger if you phone supports the turbo charging.

I have this AUKEY one and it seems to work well. It has 2 Quick Charge 3.0 ports, which are compatible with the QC 2.0 our phones have.

This is the one I bought. Been working great since June!

Don't forget your car:

Not entirely familiar with all of the criteria, but I've been using this one for about a year and it's never given me any problems. Fast charges my Pixel.

I just ordered this a couple days ago. Ugh.

This runs off 6-24v input when connected to

I got this one on sale and both ports work for fast charging.

I don't know of the Nexus supports the Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 - but this guy was cheap and high quality. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01B2BMIMS/ref=s9_simh_gw_g107_i3_r?ie=UTF8&fpl=fresh&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=&pf_rd_r=8M87C5RYBZGGXJSSG024&pf_rd_t=36701&pf_rd_p=a6aaf593-1ba4-4f4e-bdcc-0febe090b8ed&pf_rd_i=desktop

I have this one. Been using for 2 years with an S7 edge and now an S9. Kicks ass. My built-in usb port in my car actually charged my S7 slower than it drained when using Gmaps. This thing is very quick. Think you'd have to get a separate USB C cable though. But it's great for when u got friends in the car with their own cables to share

Edit: am retarded. Nevermind. Didn't read title. Lol

Im only at my place when i have to sleep since I'm a full time college student & worker. so I always charge my phone whenever I have time to.
I use a fast wireless charger with a dual quick charger. aukey offers a single port quick charge too but since my radio doesn't have bluetooth I use an adapter for it.

OEM LG wall charger that comes with the phone works fine for me.

As far as car chargers, I've been using this Scosche USBC202M Dual 10 Watt (2.1A) USB Car Charger with a regular USB-A to micro-USB cable. Looks like it won't do Quick Charge though.

If the Scosche car charger wont do Quick Charge, then maybe this? Aukey CC-T8 Car Charger

Purchased this for car: Quick Charge 3.0 AUKEY Car Charger with Dual USB Ports for Samsung Galaxy S8/S7, LG G6, HTC 10 and More - Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01B2BMIMS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_CXRGzb31F0DME

And use a bensen leung cable from amazon.

At home I just use the stock QC2.0 charger.

Personally, I love Quick Charge. I have an Aukey Car Charger and an Aukey USB Hub, both with QC 3.0 to charge my phone and all my other devices.

I bought this a while back Aukey CC-T8 Car Charger with Dual Quick Charge 3.0 Ports - Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01B2BMIMS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_6Qufzb7DPHHFR


Aukey deals come and go. I know there was a promo code a few days back, not too sure if it's still valid.

Yeah, definitely use an Anker or Aukey fast charger. I use one of these and it keeps my Note topped up all day.

A total of 7 separate orders. It was a bit annoying because I was mostly on my phone and the mobile apps/chrome wouldn't load properly. Also I would have preferred to bundle orders but oh well. or try to use more coupons but they only give you so many minutes in the cart and sometimes the next item that you're waiting for a deal to start is right outside that window.

• the microSD cards for my nvidia shieldTV's so I can run plex server on them. - 2x SanDisk Ultra 128GB microSDXC - $19?

  I used the Visa30 coupon for above.

  I missed out on the $50 gift card because I didn't have the physical credit card with me and it asked for the full card number. I also wanted this Anker BT Speaker but it went pretty fast and everytime the waitlist message popped up on my phone the app was too laggy and I couldn't get it in the cart. oh well.
  
  edit: bargh! just realized i needed a smaller UPS of which there was a cyberpower one on sale. d0h!
