I bought the RAVPower qi enabled battery pack from Amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00HYAZMU2
Its arriving tomorrow so I will follow up with a review and video if anyone wants it.
Has anyone used this with the Nexus 6 yet or have any experience using it? I doubt it will fully charge the Nexus because its only 4800mAh and it will likely lose 15-20% of that due to heat. I'll let everyone know around how much it can charge before draining completely and its charge time (for the battery pack). Is anyone else interested in these batteries? As a commerce student convenience is key and while I do carry my stock Moto charger with me I don't like using cables. I never kill my phone during the day, but if it's a long day (0700-1900) at school then I probably could kill the battery. I usually take my phone off the charger at 0500-0600 and use/abuse it all day with WiFi hotspots, streaming music etc... so this charger/battery seems to fit my needs. I ordered the black model and I can compare it to my old Anker battery pack.

Pictures coming soon!
Update:
I received my replacement from Amazon and it charges perfectly fine. My original one looked fairly beaten up (the box was damaged and dirty) so it could have been kept in poor conditions resulting in the battery becoming defective. My replacement seems to be a lot better and I am very happy with it. I will now begin to test the efficiency of the battery pack and post the results here when I am done. Check back for pictures and updates!
I have now been using the battery for 5 days and I graphed the usage along with the batteries efficiency. It's really nowhere near as efficient as I had hoped, but then again qi charging is still in its infancy.
Here is how I found the efficiency: [(total % of phone in decimal form charged * 3320mAh)/(5000mAh the batteries capacity)]*100%
Here is an example: [(0.50*3320)/(5000)]*100% =32.2% efficiency
I also placed a scale of my usage of the phone while it was qi charging. I made a scale from 1 (no usage) to 10(Steaming 4k videos, super GPS powering everything... you get my point usage) vs. the number of days that I tested it.
overall I am still happy with the battery even though I expected it to be a little more efficient while charging via qi.
I'd like to know if qi also works without wall plug-in so in standalone mode and how fast is the charge. Thanks!

It says that it works without a wall outlet hence the qi battery pack. I will let you know how long the charge time is once I get it tomorrow.
I like the idea, but might get the charger pad they also have. It would work with the power bank I already have and a recent review commented that it works well with a case on the phone.

This guy used the qi pad and glued it in his car dock. Seems to work well. Its not the power pack one though.
So I got the battery yesterday and made a short video review. I also took some pictures of the pack. The bad news is once the battery pack drained completely it would not charge I ordered another one and I'm sending my original one back today. My replacement will be here Saturday so I can't comment on much else other than my initial use. It's unfortunate that it won't charge (I tried the original cable and AC adapter that came with it and 3-4 more cables and adapters without any luck. I also tried 7 wall outlets to make sure...) I love the battery and the qi is great but I must have received a defective pack. I'm willing to give it one more chance before moving onto a different brand. As of right now I would still recommend it because it foes work well and I may have just gotten the short end of the stick so to speak.
I will keep everyone updated with what happens and how the new one works. I will also try to find more ways to make it charge tonight and research more into the issue.
OP updated & Video added
My replacement pack works great! Lemons happen so I am glad the second one has 0 issues so far.
Stop it, bro. You are making me waste too much money!! LoL Now I want one of these too. I already have two non-qi battery packs.

The boot animation is form Dirty Unicorn. I had the ROM for a few days and I always save the boot animations because I like to change it up. Some of my kernel settings have been causing random reboots lately but I think I fixed it by switching kernels.
The battery is practical for me when in in a class and it's on my desk so that's my main reason for buying it. (Let's not forget I also bought it to annoy the iPhone people who can't wirelessly charge without a dumb case) /s but its funny when they ask what in doing.
updated OP with charging results/efficiency over the course of 5 days
Thanks!!
Great review, I was looking for info on battery packs, had not even thought of Qi charger for one at the same time
Question for you: Does using the USB port to charge work in turbo charge mode? I was concerned that it probably won't due to output listed at 1A.
Found another one on Amazon that has a bigger battery, and outputs at 2.1A

No it doesn't support QC 2.0 and as of right now there is only 1 QC 2.0 battery pack. Its made by APE and you have to order it from overseas because its not available to buy aside from dealer samples.
[2/23]Updated:
Although S7 uses the Snapdragon 820 processor(Most other regions use Samsung Exynos 8 Octa), sadly only features Quick Charge 2.0(please check Qualcomm news:https://www.qualcomm.com/news/snapd...-galaxy-s7-and-s7-edge-powered-snapdragon-820
So I deleted all the quick charge 3.0 product links. If you guys want to find the quick charge 2.0 products, you can visit their official website:
Tronsmart:http://www.tronsmart.com/products/quick-charge-2-0-chargers
Anker:https://www.anker.com/search?keyword=quick charge 2.0
Aukey:http://www.aukey.com/category/Power
Choetech:http://www.choetech.com/Product-search.html?keyword=quick+charge+2.0
For the car, I guess I'll go for Aukey 49,5W 3ports
I recently received the CHOETECH qc 3.0 wall charger to test out and review. I gotta say I love their products. I have a fast wireless chager, a qc 2.0 power bank and the qc 3.0 wall charger. While I don't have any qc 3.0 compatible devices her, this wall charger is awesome. It's very well made, sleek, and charges as fast as the OEM charger from ssung for my note 5. Love love love CHOETECH and all their products and this new wall charger promises to be of the same great quality I have come to know and expect from CHOETECH. Highly recommended!
Picked up a Choetech Quick Charge 3.0 charger and compared w/ the 2.0. It's super convenient to charge 0-100 in no time. Quick Charge as most of you know, allow for high levels of current to flow to the battery, in an attempt to maximize its charging efficiency. Quick Charging also tend to charge their batteries at higher voltages, allowing for a higher rate of power transfer through commonly found cables. The downside to all this is that it can limit the life of your battery since they get hotter. This is the BIG selling point between 3.0 and 2.0, not necessarily charge times but battery life over the long haul. Different batteries require different charging voltages and QC 2.0 supported four modes at varying power levels, 5 volts/2amps, 9V/2A, 12V/1.67A, and a 20 volt option. QC 3.0’s uses voltage between 3.2V and 20V at 200mV increments, allowing for a wider selection of voltages.
This is useful as it reduces the amount of energy wasted during charging. Wasted energy is a big deal because all that extra power would be lost as heat. See, that's what makes the battery run warm thereby limiting the longevity of the battery's life. By having the wider range of voltage you waste less power and that results in less heat, which for you means longer battery life a year from now.
When I tried this with the Note 5, I didn't notice a significant increase in charging time but I did notice less warmth on the back of the phone. Does that prove it's working? I'm not sure but if the option exists, I'd rather try to extend my battery life if possible.

I just check Qualcomm official website. Now only Anker and Tronsmart are certificated by Qualcomm (Quick Charge 3.0) among the above brands. https://www.qualcomm.com/documents/quick-charge-device-list More and more accessories brands will release quick charge 3.0 products in 2016.
I reviewed the Tronsmart QC 3.0 you have linked in the op. It's a quality peice and even charging my QC 2.0 LG V10, it's a lot faster than the oem charger.

Hi Everyone,
Just got this charger for my Note 5 ( and soon to own nexus 6P) and I love it! Its awesome to have an additional fast charge with me at work and at home. Now that I have the Note 5 and there is no removable battery I am always plugging in so having an extra Quick Charge at work is great! One of my biggest fears after reading these forums for so many years has been battery management and using the correct plug with each device that I own and with this being Qualcomm 3.0 but reversible to Quick charge 2.0 I Love it, I just carry one plug now (actually I just leave it at the office) and use it for multiple devices! I know you all know that Choetech makes a great product as I have referenced this forum in most of my decision making, and have since purchased many items form the company including the Fast Charge Qi Wireless Charging pad ( I did not get the additional quick charge cable option as I just use my Note 5 plug) but this Charger works great with the Qi Fast Charge Wireless Pad as well if you are in the market for one and if you buy them separately it is not that much more money, to me it was definitely worth it!
With that being said, your forums have helped me for many many years and I just joined and starting writing, so please feel free to let me know if I can answer any questions about this product or any product that I may have. I really love these forums, and I am very happy to be a part of them!
Thanks!
ChoeTech 3.0 Quick Charger
I had the opportunity to review the ChoeTech Quick Charge 3.0 wall charger and I have to say that I am really impressed with the upgrade from the 2.0. I’ve been using the 2.0 for about two months now and I LOVE the rate at which it charges. I would have to say that the most impressive thing about the Quick Charge 3.0 is that I get to 50% battery at bout 7-10 minutes faster than I do on the 2.0! I used to only get to about 35-40% after a 30 minute charge but with the 3.0 I am hitting nearly 50% in 35 or so minutes! Needless to say, I have been very impressed. Another feature that I’ve kind of been raving about is the fact that the USB cable can be entered into the charger block UPSIDE DOWN! I can’t tell you how often I have to fumble around in the dark before bed trying to get the cable back into the charging block (and we all know we put it in the wrong way first EVERY time) but now I just put it in no matter the direction and it just works. Not to mention, the charger comes with a USB-C cable and while I don’t have a phone that requires one, I am glad to have one as I suspect I will one day soon. I truly couldn’t ask for more! Great product, works perfectly. I’ve become a real fan of the ChoeTech products and look forward to seeing what other awesome things they come out with soon!

So I deleted all the quick charge 3.0 product links.
So recently I bought a used Sony xperia z2, although its an old device but I'm quite impressed by his performance, look and design I loved it especially that purple color lol.
I've tested two different chargers one from Sony and the other one from my old lenovo phone here's the results (using Ampere )
1- Sony charger EP-800 (belongs to sony M2 I guess) with 850 mA : it only gives me 600mA
2- Lenovo charger (belongs to a cheap phone) with 1,0 A : it gives me 900mA which is perfect
my question is : is it safe to use the lenovo charger? since it gives a nice charging or there are other measurement which prevents using unbranded chargers
also, if anyone here has experienced different chargers please share how did you menage to get a good charging
I'm looking forward to have my question answered and have a great charging tips/tricks thread
P.S : ordering on-line is out of the question for me (excuse my government...)
Best regards.

Frankly speaking, 900mA/h is quite a slow charging speed. My typical charging speed gained is usually above 1A/h with a 2.5A rating charger.
Besides, I have never heard of any OEM forbid the use of any non-generic charger.
Not much tips for you when charging, just try not to use it but keep it power on to get the best result.
Using the Jackos_QuickCharge2.0_rev5.zip that can be found here (forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/development/sony-secret-revealed-qc-2-0-t3163490) anda QC 3.0 charger my Z2 is able to reach up to 1700 mAh
I recommend it!
I haven't made any scientific measurements myself but I can tell you my Z2 charges faster with the OEM Sony charger than, say, the average Samsung charger. Perhaps OEMs pull some unadvertised optimizations.
My cousin also says his Z2a charges faster with the charger that came with a BLU Pure XL, which claims to pump up to 2.1A.

I don't know about you, but I appreciate longer battery lifespan over charge speed. Charging above the OEM specifications can't be all that good. Different opinions from different folks.
I am going away on a trip next week and will need to be able to charge on the go.
I originally ordered the Aukey PB-Y14-US power bank but I was unable to get it to charge my OnePlus 6t. It charged my wife's Pixel 3 XL with no problems.
It seems the only Dash Charging compatible power bank that I can find is the Sdoutech which has mixed reviews.
I am looking for something that is 20000 or more as I need to be able to fully charge 2 phones and have a little extra to spare.
What are you guys using? Any suggestions would be awesome.
I have RavPower 28k mah with PD charging. It doesn't rapid charge my 6T, but it does not slow charge either. I've been happy with it, had it for over a year now.
I use something like this when I travel.
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/163251892502
I use Panasonic 18650 cells rated at 3400mAh so around 17,000 mAh which are about 20$ for four packs. I find it hard to believe that there are battery packs not using 18650 cells that are rated any higher than 10k mAh. I get about three or four complete charges with the one I posted.
A five cell 18650 battery pack is a bit large and a bit heavy. I use 10 amp cells but if you want dual fast charge then maybe get 20 amp cells I do not think that 30 amp cells will be of benefit. I have used many of these eBay style of 18650 cells over the last five or six years and the differ in circuits most will do the rated quick charge. A 20,000 mAh cell could be pretty big if true to the rating. The few that I have had over the years that use custom flat cell phone style cells are pure rubbish.
This one supports Dash Charge and works pretty well: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32963417817.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dbg2AjO

Looks nice but if it is 18650 cells I fail to see how it can reach 20000mAh . But if it is just a charge bank and the user provides the cells then at least one can bring their own cells and have a decent unit.
Official from OPPO
The sister company? of OnePlus --> Oppo has just announced two new power banks which support VOOC (20W) and Super VOOC (50W) fast charging ! I think these should be compatible with OnePlus Dash Charge or Wrap Charge !!!

Hi,
what do you think of this?
https://www.oppo.com/ph/accessory-vooc-power-bank/
I'm starting this thread as a reference for people who might be interested in where to purchase a fast charger for their phone.
I'm currently struggling to find any information about where to buy a fast charger, since I bought the Neptune Blue version (12GB/256GB) and the only option was an EU charger, although I need a UK one. I know that we can use adaptors, but that's not a long term, optimal solution.
So I have a couple of questions for the good people in here:
Does anyone know where to buy original Supervooc 50W charger ?
Any recommendations on similarly charging 3 party chargers ?
Does the OnePlus Warp/Dash chargers work for the X2 Pro? Any tests on that?
Please do not hesitate to add your experience with Oppo's proprietary charging technology.

Exactly, it seems that Oppo haven't prepared to sell those chargers separately and the only places you can find is a 3rd party from China.
Although I'm interested if anyone has tested maybe a OnePlus Warp/Dash charger.

Here I am! Proud owner of a OP3 since 3 days ago, switched to a 12/256 x2 pro.
I just tried, as per your request, to use the Dash op charger and in the home, I get the VOOC logo while in charge. Not that bad, but definitely not a superVOOC. It charges the phone quicker than any ordinary, yet overvolted charger, but not comparable to superVOOC.

How many seconds of charge per percent of battery ?
I think mine is not as quick as before, since a power outtage at home, very strange..
Almost 40 seconds per percent, so definitely not the 30min for the 100% announced.
Are you supposed to be able to see the Super VOOC logo while charging full speed ?
@KaylordTheuZ
Thnk for testing.
could you please install the app "Ampere" from the playstore? (I on the Oneplus 3 get a read out of 3500 milli ampere with the 4 amp dash charger when below may be 40%)
Could you check the ampere on the realme with that?

Yup. Just made a comparison among the dash charger and the original one.

Are you supposed to be able to see the Super VOOC logo while charging full speed ?

Yes, sure. In the lock screen, with the charge percentage which fastly increases by step of 0.01.
I read about your power shortage and IMHO it could be a cause of damage to these chargers. Try to do as follows: install Ampere and compare your results with mine ( just posted a feedback to another user). I set the phone in charge while the phone is already @80% of charge remaining. Don't know if in case of discharged battery the charger pulls additional current in the first minutes, I'll try this out.
I don't think Ampere gives proper readings for Dash/VOOC. You're recommended to use the engineer menu (usually *#808#) but that doesn't appear to work on the Realme X2 pro (CN version).
I have contacted their customer service and received this message:

The same on ebay !
P.S. You can always use an adaptor, I see no issues here.
Can it charge with a regular 5v 2A charger?

Off course you can, but don't expect any VOOC neither superVOOC performance.
So seems UK version is non-existent. Great.
Does anyone know which adapter would allow the full capabilities of the VOOC charger?
It will comes with in the box right?
Dash charger is 20w. GSMarena said X2 Pro supports QC up to 18w.
Does anyone have any 25w or more to test?
Solution for V8 SuperCharger for Realme X2 Pro
Does anyone know where to buy original Supervooc 50W charger ?
Ans: Obviously from Oppo or Realme's official Stores and website. Do not trust Ebay or Amazon completely for that matter.
[*]Any recommendations on similarly charging 3 party chargers ?
Ans: SuperVooc is Oppo's tech but I guess original one from Oppo might be costly as compared to Realme.
[*]Does the OnePlus Warp/Dash chargers work for the X2 Pro? Any tests on that?
Ans: Works. 30w in also enough but it takes the usual 62-72 mins from 3% to 100%. Tested result. Also why won't u charge it fast in 50w speed rather than 30w,when both wattage results in pretty similar heating.
Note: Tested verdict. Any fast Supercharge tech will surely generate some heat and surely demands a battery change after 2-3 years depending on use. My 3 years+ old Oneplus 3 just had to change Battery. So I guess with 50w for Realme, its battery will run buttery smooth for max 2 years and upto 3 year with minimal use. Hope I answered upto your expectation.

I'm starting this thread as a reference for people who might be interested in where to purchase a fast charger for their phone.
I'm currently struggling to find any information about where to buy a fast charger, since I bought the Neptune Blue version (12GB/256GB) and the only option was an EU charger, although I need a UK one. I know that we can use adaptors, but that's not a long term, optimal solution.
So I have a couple of questions for the good people in here:

Please do not hesitate to add your experience with Oppo's proprietary charging technology.

Will surely work. My Mi Powerbank 10000mah 2i normally delivers 5v,2A. But will charge slowly, mine takes almost 1hr 28 mins from 12%. It surely extends battery life but is pretty slow. If u can wait that long, you can charge

I bought the 50w Chinese oppo one from eBay but it doesn't give 50w to the realme. Haven't measured the charge but it's noticeably slower
Maybe try the original cable with it.
ah you look on Aliexpress?
