First let me make it clear...
This is strictly a recomendation for fellow Note owners.
I do not have anything to do with sales or anything near..
Wanted to share good stuff for as I really truly find these to be awesome.!
I just received (2) of these from AMAZON. Only $15 bux a pop. Ya Cant Beat It!
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006L9K16W/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details
Dual USB / AC Plug Desktoop Charger.
Charges via AC while SYNCS USB (leave single or both jacks plugged in)
Bothwork together. Comes w/AC Adapter. Cradle has built in USB cable (so cant lose it!)
Very tiny footprint. Fairly Sturdy. Phone does not tip over.
I actually place one in the ashtray dashboard of my car (wired USB)
Easy feel ... for locking phone on and off of cradle (thats important!!! )
They are the most ALTERNATIVE affordable pricing compared to the OEM desktop chargers which in my opinion are not that good and are about $50 bux or so.
Support Car / Home docking software when phone docked.
Only Con is...BRIGHHHHHTTT blue LED light. Extremely bright.
Had to place a piece of black tape over LED
Thought I would share the 411.
Its hard to find a good alternative these days.....
Thanks for sharing this, just ordered two alongside the OEM Sammy car mount.
Thanks for sharing! Just ordered mine.
How quick does it charge?
Thanks for the tip. Just ordered one that I want to use to make a custom dock that I can fit in my cup holder in my car, as this phone is too big for my cup holders and that's where I like to keep my phone when driving. Was looking for a good/cheap dock, so thanks again for reporting back on the quality of this one. Definitely a nice price. Free shipping with amazon prime too.
how snug fit it is on the back? is there any room for the case? Will it fit if I have a thin case on?
I see that they also have the one with spare battery charger for $2 more. Interesting.
Hmmm you could probably MHL output while also USB host moding a keyboard/ mouse with this. Gonna buy one to give it a shot
Does it fit when i have a TPU case?
Actually the Samsung OEM dock is great. It's $40 at the ATT store. But I paid $20 with my premiere account.
I bought another on ebay as a back up, but haven't received it yet from here:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/220923137856?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_3363wt_1270
This does not actually come with the charger does it? \ Igt says can be used with charger that came with note.
Im confused. \/
so sorry for the delayed response! yes this desktop charger comes with one ac adapter in addition to a usb cable that is a cable built into the charger itself.
it allows you to keep the phone plugged into to both pc & ac wall at the same time with out the need to switch cables
it has a overload protection so no fear of charging burnouts.
it is definetely a snug tight fit onto the cradle itself. never worries about falling over or lose connections. i can say it works super super tight . real happy w/purchase.

Anyone found a good car holder for the TyTN? I've looked through ebay and found a few and all of them have no charging/power connector. I don't know which one fits well. I'm looking for a good cheap holder with ot without a power connector. Any recommendations?
Try the Brodit range:

There's also a thread over at Modaco.com about their stuff:
http://www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=244140
Hope this helps.
That looks really good! But I can't afford to spend £40 on a holder. I went for a simple one from ebay for a fiver. I only use it when I go on long trips and use my tytn for satnav which is very seldom.

You could check out these links, they are from HTC Europe.

Things to consider though is if on long journey the phone might need charging so make sure the mini usb has enough room for a car charger to be plugged in. I use the charger for Holux GPSlim 236 satnav receiver to charge both devices when in the car. The only other problem I had with my M2000 was when accelerating hard or going fast round corners the phone would be pulled out of the cradle in fact I tried loads of cradles so I'm hoping this smaller phone doesnt suffer the same problem otherwise it could be elastic band time again.
Looking at that cradle in the top link it looks like one of the bottom lugs will block access to the mini usb which is no good really. Oh well only one way to find out and thats go and buy it.
I bought one from a Vodafone shop. It's just known as a universal car holder. Cost a fiver and works great.
I can still access the mini usb and all buttons while it's fitted in there.
Hope this helps
I'm looking to make my TP2 nice and comfortable for GPS in my car, and since I haven't seen a decent dash mount, and the display for iGO8 is a bit tiny, I'm going to need a nice long car charger for it. I've decided that I can see it pretty well if I put it next to my rear-view mirror.
I have already purchased an HTC-brand car charger, but the cord is terribly short. I thought about an extension cable.
What do you think about this?

I'd probably get the right-angled 6-footer (best for landscape mount). It's $15 plus like $8 shipping. I decided to check in on XDA before investing so much in so little.
You may want to check into a cigarette lighter extension instead, i think Radio Shack has a 6 footer for like $8, its a bit cheaper.
Good call. I found a nice 10 foot one at B&H for like $7.
I just received this from eBay. I paid $19.99. Buy It Now was $24.99 but I was the only bidder. I'm hoping this post will help others that might be looking for a decent dock at a great price with flexibility.
This dock is nice but for Naked phones only as there is NO room for any cases sitting either in the charger vertical or laid down horizontal. It has a 1.5V power adapter and can simultaneously charge both the Note and an extra battery. You can also add the included USB cable to the back and charge right from that. It comes with the charger, USB cable and dock. Packaging does not read Hyperion but the included "instructions" do. It also features automatic end on full charge and an LED that's Blue when done and Red when charging. Data sync can be done as well with the included USB so you can sync in cradle while it charges.
I've included many pics for your viewing pleasure. Of course none with the Note actually in it but you'll get the gist. Any questions let me know.

Ebay seller was: inventoryexpressonline. I have no affiliation with said seller nor can I vouch for them. The item was shipped quickly and FREE! This is a US seller shipping out of California.

I almost bought a similar dock from Dealextreme (I like the 2 docking-positions combined with extra battery charger), but I also was looking for a cheap dock with audio-out to use beside my bed as charger / alarm clock (combined with compact speaker).
I found this dock on ebay (seller is i-mail, as is more than clear from the included picture...) for $ 24 / € 18, which combines these functions with a charger for a spare battery.
It looks as a knock-off from the official Samsung dock, only with the extra battery charger included "hidden" behind the docked Note.
The dock can be placed in portret and in landscape position and the phone slides in easily.
Limitation is that only the naked Note really fits.
It misses the extra usb-port from the Hyperion dual dock, which would have been very useful in my situation for keeping the connected speaker powered (now I have to charge its included battery every 2 days).
Another impractical point I just experienced is its size. I wanted to take it with me for the weekend as I expected intensive use of my Note and would need to recharge it and a spare battery. The above described Hyperion dual dock is flat, so easy to pack, whereas this dock is as high as it is wide.
I got the same deal as the OP. I am very happy with the quality and the price. Thanks for posting all the pics. Nice job!

No problem! It's my pleasure. Just hoping others can get a better sense of what they may get if they decide to pull the trigger.

Ok so one concern with this dock. Although it shows AC charging on my battery widget, it never goes into deep sleep after charging. I've even tried the old turn on and unlock prior to removing the phone. Only way it deep sleeps is to reboot after removal.

Hello all,
I am looking at getting one of the Blackberry chargers:
http://www.amazon.com/Blackberry-Fo...laybook/dp/tech-data/B004OZMWUS/ref=de_a_smtd
The folding power blades would be nice in my luggage, and it is 1.5A so it could fast charge but does anyone know if it actually does or would I have to do surgery on it to make it fast charge my Note?
Thanks very much all!
I imagine it would work fine, but wouldnt the included charger mini "block" work just as well? I understand the folding prong part, but it's also rather tiny and is smaller to start...plus it wont cost you $20 to charge at the same rate.
Point taken, just hate prongs destroying my luggage.
I always the prong protectors I usually try to accumulate to shield them.
Anyone know if the Samsung Portable dock (the one with a flip lid and will charge an extra day battery will allow fast charge?
Thanks

Never mind my previous post!
I didn't know that the HP unit already had folding prongs, Heck, I am ordering a 2nd one cause as good as the one that just arrived (nice rubber surface, folding prongs and just a great weight/build quality) these things are a STEAL!
Thanks for the advice, right on the money!

like 2 or 3 threads down, look for "fast charging 2A" or something

Ahh yes, I read that pissing match. $5 for a long cord charger that works well...can't beat that. May order one.
To answer your question regarding the BB power cord.
Yes it dose. I have been using this since my purchase of the note. Charges nice and fast.
Hi guys! I've been eyeing a wireless charger for a while now. I have the D855 which includes Qi wireless charging capabilities
.
Last time I purchases a generic charger for the Note 2 it got really hot for my liking.
I've had an eye for this one... Aukey N12:
http://www.aukey.com/product/wireless-charger-n12
Unfortunately I can only find this one on eBay Australia:
http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=171730898638&alt=web
But it's $80+ down to $6.99 which is concerning.
So are there better alternatives (I assume there are heaps)?
Thanks!! [emoji4]
Will wireless chargers charge through some/all cases or covers?
It would be a pain to have to keep removing a cover (for example gel or plastic one) to be able to charge, espeically for those that are a really tight fit.
The Nokia wireless charges work flawlessly
The Nokia one is great but hard to find cheap.
Try the WCD-100 which is from LG and you can get it from Ebay for under $40-50. It works perfectly with the LG G3 (with a case). You just need to make sure you have a 1.5Amp USB charger as the WCD-100 doesn't come with a wall plug, just the USB cable.
I have several wireless chargers, the ones I like best are the Itian desktop charger and the Ikea Desk lamp charger. I have the Itian at work and the Ikea on my nightstand next to my bed. I need to put some clear rubber "feet" on the Ikea charger for easier alignment, and maybe find a way to add the charger for my G Watch R, but both work well. I should also add a disclaimer that I have only used the Ikea charger with the LG quick circle case, bit the Itian worked with the thinner cases, not so much with the leather book case (plastic and leather between the phone and charger)
@Aid777
It really depends on how thick it is. I reckon <4-5mm will be able to. I hope to get one soon and I'll let you know when I do.
