So I've been thinking - the TF has a power requirement of 5V/15v at 2/1.2A, which is the same requirement as the ipad. Really wouldn't see any reason why this wouldn't work so long as the charger has a usb port and you use your OEM cable.
Much easier finding chargers for ipads than the TF, for now. Have some home and car chargers on order and will post results later.
TF's charger requirement is 15V.

best buy has a usb charger that you can get, its called a dynex ultimate charger for cameras and camcorders. its like 30 bucks and charges at 11 volts / 1.5 amps. it works great. I had to get one when my usb charger melted. Its the only one that I have found to work. I tried around 30 of them lol

That was the first time I plugged the Transformer in. I didn't even get a full charge out of the thing.
The transformer charger can shift between [email protected] or [email protected]
I have confirmed with my multimeter that the voltage is 5V when charging the transformer
The [email protected] is to charge the keyboard dock, but do not own one to confirm
You can use other chargers, its just Asus's stupid smart charger makes the charging indicator comeup when using the official charger, it also chargers faster, need someone with an electrical background and an oscilloscope to probe it out
I have been meaning to do a test on charging times with different chargers
Overall, as long as the charger is [email protected] under (ex. [email protected]) It will charger, the Transfromer will not show it, but if you check on it the percentages goes up
Ipad chargers are at [email protected] so give it a try
looks like the ac adapter is available online...

Cool, at first glance it looks like the cable is longer because of how many times its looped around. I just wrapped my cable around and looks close but not that exaggerated, you think Asus differed the photo? Lol

Wonder if it would be safe to charge iPhone and iPad through Asus "block".
I plugged my iphone 4 into the Asus block and it seems to charge fine. How safe it is, is another question entirely, but I can confirm it does charge the phone, and the thing didn't spontaneously explode or anything

I had reservations on getting the dynex charger but I hate only having charger for any unit I have. I bought it as a backup and cord lenght...lenght is very good. I received the transformer the next day from Amazon and saw the shortness of the stock cable. Brought out the dynex charger set it at. 11 volts and plugged it in and Viola...charges. 11 volts is lower then 15 but it still managed to charge from 29 percent to 100 in a acceptable and fairly good pace. I now use this charger over the stock because the stock charger gets really hot if used for a long time and I really don't feel comfortable. Using it.

I noticed that too but when I plug it in at night the next morning it's cool. I guess it heats up only when actively charging. Towards the end it should go down to trickle or no charge at all.

I got the one Verizon sells (red connector with flash light). I love it, charges just as fast as the wall Turbo charger. I picked it because I get 25% off accessories. The tech you are looking for is QuickCharge 2.0

Well a couple of days ago I was on my way home from work and I was at around 30% on my Nexus. Out of curiosity I plugged the phone into a 2A Anker charger (which worked really well with my M8... 1%/min) and it said it would be fully charged in about 2 hours. I then plugged the phone into the PowerMod Quick Charge charger and it said it would be fully charged in about 50 something minutes. So I would say pretty well! My phone was fully charged by the time I got home (my commute is about an hour 15 minutes).

I have the Incipio QC 2.0 car charger, it works as intended for QC 2.0. I had the PowerMod one, but it was a little loose in my car outlet so it would lose power sometimes if you bumped it accidentally. There's another OP about car chargers which I meant to post pictures of my charger in. The nice part about the Incipio is it has a USB port so you can use your own cable. I tried the VZW which was nice, but I don't like chargers where I can't replace the cable if/when it wears out. The VZW one is also 35$ compared to $21 for the Incipio on Amazon with Prime shipping (thats what I paid for it) and you get a nice coiled cable for a good deal on there and still have money left over compared to the VZW one.
I originally had the Incipio car charger, but I had to return it because it didn't work in my car's charging port, for some reason (it worked in another car, so not sure). Also, The Incipio one was too large, as I'm used to slim car chargers that barely stick out. And while it's not a big deal, the Incipio one didn't come with a microUSB cable.
After a bit of searching, I found the Ventev Dashport Q1200. It's a little hard to find right now, but here's a listing on Amazon. From what I could see, this one was the only QC 2.0 compatible car charger that was also slim. It also came with a flat ribbon-style microUSB cable.

All official legit Quick Charge 2.0 chargers do 12/9/5volts. As long as it's listed on Qualcomm's website, it offers the best charging.

I rarely use included cables. I have extended cables that i route around the dash and a-pillar for a cleaner look. and the cost is comparable to other QuickCharge 2.0 car chargers.

I saw a couple of cheap dash car chargers from this seller, I did order an OTG cable from them though.

they may work with dash charge, but they aren't original, you can see it at the connector: https://gyazo.com/861bf8178186a4b49a7b937995537e18 real ones don't have this. not that it's a big deal though.

As long as they work as advertised, I don't really care what brand it is.
Currently, I am waiting for the reply of the seller and then I'll order it.

To say what?
To confirm me that it really works to load in Dash mode with this charger. That would make it easy to ask for a refund in case it doesn't work.
Unfortunately, I've just missed another promo which made it 11USD.
Thanks for sharing, if it works then its worth it seeing as its a lot cheaper!

The car charger does get hot, indeed. But that's the whole idea of DASH charging -- keep the heat away from the phone battery where it can only slowly dissipate. The car charger is quite sturdy and made (almost) entirely fro metal, so it'll cool down quickly after charging.
I am not sure if it's an issue as I could not watch it too closely while driving but the DASH mode charging seems to have ended around 75% and afterwards it went on with normal mode. Not sure if that's how it is supposed to be as I've never watched my wall charger that closely.

Nice sounds good, I might get one in the future, but on the other hand I also have some referral points over at OnePlus.
They now redirect to another one that should suit better for the one plus 5. The linked one is only for one plus 3/3T. I think I will buy it later and test it.
I just like how I am able to top up my battery while navigating with GPS on. Tried or during a weekend getaway and worked nicely.
Are there any magnetic chargers that will support dash charging? I want to keep from damaging the USB-C port for as long as possible.
There's not one available.
I have a magnetic charger and when used with the OEM charger, the cable heats up to the point of almost burning my fingers.

You can use the magnetic charger with a quick charge charger or any other charger and it will be fine.
I'm using a Samsung Fast Charger and have no issues, the device still charges full overnight and it's pretty quick, just not as quick as the OEM set up.
Ok I still have a quick charger from my Nexus 6, but don't know how it has scaled throughout the years in terms of what's considered "quick".
I used more then one year magnetic cable from Wsken on OP 5T. It has only charge, no data. And I have no issue, heating, damages. But in this case I don't have a supercharge. I have charge current about 1.3- 1.4 ampers.

If you use just the cable and not the OEM block it doesn't cause heating issues, I get heating issues if I use the OEM block with the wsken cable. It happens periodically so not sure what causes it.
If you use the Wsken mini2 +j OnePlus cable + wsken adapter dash charge will work. So will data transmission.
I'm using the PZOZ ones I got off AliExpress, link. I have them from my LG V20 days, and no issues with it - using the same cables across my mouse, portable battery, ipad, and phone.
They have an upgraded version here, but I have not needed them yet as the current ones charges my 6T as quick as it should.

well, i don't have any exact specs or accurate data, all the specs i have are as per the weblink. the new version supports up to 5A. for me, the older version which i have supports up to 2.1A i think but works well for me. no fires or any hazards so far.
I don't think there is a dash charge wireless. All wireless chargers are slow, for now..
Hello All,
Wondering if anyone knows of a good Right Angle Type C cable. Preferably the Type C is the right angle and the normal USB can be straight and 6FT in length.
Looks like the PZOZ has both Wired and Magnetic available in 90° cables. I have never used them, no endorsement given.
If you want something that can be gotten from Amazon, I have used these and have no complaints

Okay, I'm a doofus, my last OnePlus was the One, and I wasn't quite sure how to differentiate the dash charge.
To clarify, no, the cable does not actually support dash charge in my test, I just tried it with the original cable, and it seems like my power extension does not support it either, the Qualcomm QC and stuff, idk.
