Thought this deal was a no-brainer so I grabbed a few for myself and the gf. $1 for a Motorola-branded car charger with free shipping!

The price is right, but I don't see that it is spec'd as a 1000mA charger, so one has to assume it is only 500mA.
500mA will charge slower, and sometimes will not even have enough juice to prevent battery from further discharging. When using navigation with full brightness, the phone will draw more than 500mA just to keep running.
Amazon has a 1000mA charger for $4
The only thing I can points to it being a 500 rating. You would think it would be higher with the extra USB port it would be higher. Bummer.

good point!
i dont see any motorola branding, and that doesnt look like a moto design. furthermore, a google search doesnt show any other motorola chargers with an extra usb port
What ever the case, im in for 1
You get what you paid for. I can see this thing falling apart when you pull it from the plug.

Even if i use it for a day, it was worth a $1
DO NOT BUY THIS!!! This is garbage. I have one with the Verizon branding ($29.99) which is the same thing and it causes the touch screen to not be responsive when plugged in.
LMAO Verizon WOULD sell this for $30, and charge another $5.99 for the fuze that goes in it.
There are some users reporting that this is not Moto branded and this one has issues.
You're better off buying the real Motorola branded one off amazon for $4...

It's on T-Mo's site for $25. Of course you'd have to take the USB cover off.

the usb connector would be fine, question is whether it would physically fit in.Not really sure because the dock seems to fit around the bottom curve of the magic, but the bottom of the G1 is flat. I'd say probably not.
If you're looking for a dock, there's a number of them on ebay specifically for the G1. I got one with a slot for an extra battery and it works just fine.

i got mine off amazon when i was on super sale, the one i have has a slot for an extra battery and it works great, only downfall is it has a bright ass charging led that i covered up with a small peice of electrical tape, works really well, but a g1 with a extended battery will not fit in it (atleast not the battery door that i had), and it cant charge the extended battery either (as in i cant take it out and put it in the slot)
To be clear, you have to pull off the USB door, correct?
Its better not to use a dock. It puts unnecessary stress on the plug and doesn't offer any benefits. You would be better off just plugging the wire into it.

i agree. docks are just eye candy. and plus its a lot easier to use the phone without being it plugged up to a dock
I asked the folks at Mugen if they have one that will fit their extended 5400 mAh battery. I want to be able to recharge my spare battery while I'm out with my phone. They don't have one, but the rep pointed me to this one:

Does anyone have this charger? Is there a distributor or vendor in North America I could buy from? It is $13 from TVC Mall, but adding on shipping and PayPal fees brings it to about $26. :silly:
Hrm, I wonder if the extended battery will fit in the rear charging bay of this Hyperion cradle. As long as their isn't a lip or other protrusion that might get in the way of a thicker battery, this might work:

The Hyperion cradle will charge the extended batteries. Have one sitting at home that I use all the time.

Sweet, ordering one via Amazon.ca now!

Thanks for also letting me know that this cradle will work! I use it currently at my desk and I like it a lot. Now I'm going to like it even more
ADDITION:
While I was charging my phone today at the desk, I just wanted to charge my other battery. So as I was charging the spare battery I noticed that the right side plug-in charges BOTH the main phone and spare battery.
I was looking at replacement batteries on eBay, and I found this one. Would it be worth buying?

Always go for original batttery. Buy a couple, with a wall charger if needed. Forget these fake promise batteries!
I totally agree. They don't last any longer - instead you risk destroying your phone!

Ah, okay. Thanks for letting me know! I'll be sure to not buy one.
Battery
I own one of these, after a "inspection" discovered that it contains 2 1200mah cells connected in a serial circuit. The battery lasts a bit more than original but doesnt worth the bulkyness.
sorry for my bad english.

I recently bought AKKU Polarcell battery and it work just fine,lasting a little bit longer than original.2100mah
Unless you want your pocket/house on fire, PLEASE go for original battery/chargers
its a good battery is 3500 mAh while the original in only 1800 mAh, but its more thicker so they sell a new back cover to fit it ... those batteries stay longer

Okay I have to admit that isn't worth the money.
Which one did you get though???
Sent from my D6503 using XDA Free mobile app
something like the first one.
but i really wonder WHY it does that!
I mean... i used the original Sony Wallcharger! 1.5A and just pluged it (with the sony cable) in the back of the charger!
Then the phone wen't out of battery and died... restartet after 5 minutes, and then i booted into the OS.
Thats the only reason i can imagine why it would charge so slowy. i mean.. i used exact that same wall charger via microUSB and it worked fast and fine!
i mean, how the hell would they limit the Ampere flowing trough the dock ? some included resistors?
If i have to much time i'll try and open it. but i could swear the cheapest way would be a simple (two...) from the microUSB port to the magnets. And this is chinaware! gotta be the cheapest way!
For those who have good discount at big red. They have the wall \ car charger. With my corporate discount, the final price is $24 with free next day delivery. I bought the car charger last week and it works great. The wall charger was OOS but it's in-stock today.
Both come with the LED USB tips. The LED is pretty damn bright. It helps when you try to plug it in in the dark. Nice feature but if you don't have corporate discount, it may not worth an extra $10 compare to the charger on Amazon.

It's weird that these don't utilize the 12V charging voltage in the QC 2.0 standard, only the 9V and 5V (especially since the source for the car adapter is already 12V). On the other hand, Moto's Turbo Charger does, but it only provides the exact same 14.4W power as it does at 9V, so this one should actually be a tiny bit faster. Good find.
9V seems to be more common. The Note 4 charger's output is 9V 1.67A.

Picked up both of these this weekend. Good stuff! One thing to point out if you charge your phone in your bedroom at night...charger has a large red led that lights up when charging and turns off when its completed. Useful, but its BRIGHT
Picked up the car charger the other night. Works great. Was going to pick up a spare wallcharger too, but since my friend works there, he hooked me up with 2 spare motorola ones from display droid turbos. Left the store with a vzw branded car charger and 2 motorola turbo wall chargers for ~$28.
