Magnetic POGO Charger is Available!!

Ordered mine today... Uber excited!

tjreishus · Jan 9, 2013

Ordered one too. Im curious, are you able to get the 25 percent increase off of a 2.1 amp charger? Most USB phone chargers, auto USB ports and backup batteries are just 1 amp. I personally switched all my chargers out to be 2.1 amp and I have a backup battery with 2 usb ports. One is a phone port that is 1 amp and the other is a 2.1 amp port for tablets. I hope this doesn't require some new 3 amp charger to get the speedy charge.

This car charger is nice because it is 2.1 per port

I have been buying these and spreading them around.

Amazon.com: SYBA Multimedia Upgrade Regular Wall Outlet (CL-ADA60006) -: Everything Else

If you search the web, you can get them for 10 bucks. There are also other brands and styles out there. I have not used it on my Gnex or G10. I am experimenting on my wife's iPad and iPhone.....

If your testing it out, could you try charging your N10 and her Ipad at the same time? I can't tell if the 2.1 amps is per USB outlet or if it is split between the two. I had a car charger that was 2.1 amps but I found out that if I plugged two tablets in, they were each only getting 1 amp. The tablets drained the battery slower, but they wouldn't charge at the same time. It's seems to be really difficult to find a dual charger that will do 2.1 per outlet. I guess it isn't a big deal if you don't plan on using both at the same time though.

Now you have me wanting some wall outlets. I need to as this company if each port can provide 2.1 amps

Wall Outlet

Sorry.... Just read some reviews. It is only 700 milliamps.

kristalsoldier · Jan 10, 2013

I'll definitely get at least one of these. But can only do do at the beginning of next month. I'm not confident about Google releasing anything by then or even 6 months after:>((((

I will give that a try. I know on my wife's iPad if you plug it into a 1.0 power supply, it will not charge. it won't even reigster that it is plugged in. But when I plug my N10 into my old .85 nook charger, it registers it is charging. My wife does charge her iPhone and her iPad at the same time using the wall outlet but let me try it with the two tablets and I will let you know. I have two or three cigarette lighter adapters that have one port for 1.0 and one port for 2.1. I marked them with fingernail polish so my wife will know which one to plug her iPad into.
At night, I plug both my N10 and My Gnex phone into the same Belkin brand wall outlet which is similar to the newer ones I bought and they both charge.

I also have two other types of these wall plug things:

This one I have in my office
Amazon.com: Belkin Mini Surge Protector Dual USB Charger: Electronics

And this one I have in my kitchen which will change both my phone and 10.
Amazon.com: Belkin 6 Outlet Surge Protector with USB: Electronics

It really helps to clean up your changing areas. I just wish them make one with several usb ports.

That though is a bid, not a buy now or store item. I think they want to open up stores on both ebay and amazon.

Yes it does require bids, that is why it is called an auction.

See about a dozen posts up where this was first referenced.

Plugged them both in to the wall outlet thing last night and both said they were charging. Both were 100% this AM.

My shipping info was sent from PayPal. My account at the magnector site still shows it in processing. Maybe everyone that got shipping info used PayPal?

Mine came from PayPal also. I did not see another option to pay....or you know that I would have used Google Wallet.

I couldn't remember if there was another option or not. I was trying to make Chip feel better.
