Review: Choetech 10400mah QC 3.0 powerbank & 18w QC 3.0 wall charger-great combo!
I've been using these for about 2 weeks now so I wanted to share my experience.
They both arrived in nice minimal packaging. Cardboard boxes. The battery bank contained the powerbank, a nice thick USB micro cable and a USB a to USB type c cable. Both are thick and should last a long time. The powerbank is a nice metal black one, with chamfered edges.
The wall adapter comes solo as the wall adapter itself. I received the black one made of plastic.
Ports- the battery has both 2 charging ports, 1 the qc 3 port and 1 regular 1amp port. Then there's 2 recharging ports, 1 microusb and 1 lightning port. I've got an iPad so if you have a lightning cable it'll actually take both the Lightning port and the qc micro USB port to recharge, speeding up the recharging process.
The wall adapter has a single USB A port, which is actually reversible so it'll take the USB end both ways. A nice touch.
Ok testing this I used both a G5 and I used the wall adapter to recharge the battery, since the battery is qc compatible for charging and recharging. The wall adapter is just as good as the oem wall adapter in charging the G5. Both chargers took about an hour to charge from a dead phone. Impressed.
Then I used the powerbank to charge the G5 using the qc3 port and included type c cable. Again it was charging the same rate, finishing at about an hour. Compared to a qc2 charger I'd say there's about a 10-15% difference due to the faster charging up to about 60-70% before trickle charging.
So for the powerbank recharging it with a normal non-qc took around 6-6.5 hours. So using the qc wall adapter it charged noticeably faster, at just over 4 hours. Then on top of that if you use both the qc charger plus a lightning cable it cuts about an hour off that. Very good results for a 10400 capacity. Was able to get over 3 charges on the G5 with room to spare. The battery has 4 lights that are blue, with the first one turning green when utilizing qc for both charging and recharging.
It's a great combo. I used the bank to charge the G5 and the extra port to charge Bluetooth headphones when needed. I like both products. Any questions let me know. Thanks!

I lost my original Fast Charger in my school and now I'm without one. The problem is, that sometimes I need that great feature.
My question is, can I disassembly a random 9V charger and "adapt" a Micro-USB cable to it? Since the GS6 supports 9V I don't see a problem there. Or must I short some data pins in order to enable fast charging to not fry the device?
Why don't you just buy a new one?
I definitely think that's not a good idea. Buy a new one. If you are worried about Samsung charger price you can buy a cheaper charger that support Qualcomm 2.0 quickcharge, it's compatible.
I thought the whole thing was dynamic, that at lower battery levels it charges at different amperage than higher levels, and at a certain point it kicks over to 5V. It doesn't charge at 9V the whole time.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using XDA Free mobile app
@quarlow is right, it's dynamic.
You should buy a new one, much more safe.
If I plug a normal 'old' 600mA 5V charger to it, it says that it will charge in 6 HOURS! I can't wait for that.
I have disassembled the charger, unsolded the Female USB plug and solded it to an 9V charger from an TP-Link Switch.
I plugged it in and the phone started charging. It says "Cable charging" instead of "Fast charging" and it stated 6 hours too. After that, I shorted the data pins and then the time reduced to 2 hours...
I also tried a 12V charger (1.5A), but it don't charged, nor maked any charging sound.
Now I concluded two things:
1. Samsung S6 phones are very robust with charger voltages :silly:
2. It isn't that easy to make a fast charger.
I hope I have saved some questions now

Thanks for all the replies, but now I haven't money to buy one. Where I live, they are really expensive!
Oh, aaand, I don't know if it's a good idea to charge at 9V the whole time, because when it reaches 100%, I hear constantly the charging sound.
Looking at a Samsung Travel Adapter change...
https://www.dropbox.com/s/54xt2u315nn1tkt/2015-09-27 14.04.18-1.jpg?dl=0
Output is: 9v at 1.67A, or 5v at 2.0A. It's listed as an adaptive charger.

Thanks, I will search for an 9V charger that has this amperage.
Btw, some chargers have adaptive 12V output.... Is that QuickCharge 3.0?
A normal Samsung or LG charger of 1.8A/2A output still charge my S6 in about 1.5 hours. Get one from a relative or friend or buy one if the S6 charger is too costly

You gotta be kidding. Spend $10 and get a QuickCharge 2.0 adapter.
Don't risk it. Samsung Fast Charge is the same thing as Qualcomm Quick Charge. It's Qualcomm's technology, licensed with no loyalty fee.
QuickCharge 2.0 uses the data pins to negotiate the charge voltage with your power adapter. Otherwise it just uses 5V.
I see on my S6 it stays at 9V all the time. The phone pulls the current it needs, so you don't have to try to match that current on the power adapter side. Just make sure it's at least 1.6A, preferably 2A. I never saw my S6 pulling 2A at 5V or 9V.
I'd imagen as this a form for devs . And this guy is trying to create somthing . The devs would be a bit more yaknow . Creative. First off
The guy is trying to make the adaptive charger .give him a bit of credit . I'm currently making a portable charger and I want it to use samsung fast charge
I'm using 18650 battery's 4.2 volts fully charged 3.7 volts give or take when they sag.
So if there is anyone with half a brain out there. How do you get the 9v (8.4) amp to make it a fast charger ( under one and a half hours. ) I'll worry about building the switch to the 5 volts after ( 4.2)
Is it loop the pins . Pin to earth pin to positive loop pins to negative ) the information isn't out there so surely some one has the information. ( just FYI the sgs6 is perfectly capable of being charged at 9 volts. The battery is a nine volt according to the build information explains why charging with any other charger takes 6 hours. .
Also to the op if you did indeed have a similar idea to me just tell erm straight I wanna mess about with low current and voltage dc haha. ( also I tried 18 volts samsung phones do no alow the charge over 9volts so it cannot hurt you're phone
In trying to get through the awkard transition to Type C for everything, I'm hoping to find an adapter. I'd love for it to be Google compliant, but I can live without. Basically, I plan on carrying the google charger with the attached cord (https://store.google.com/product/usb_c_charger) around in my bag. However, I still have a number of things to charge using micro usb (work blackberry, wife's phone, portable battery, etc). So, I'd like to only carry the one charger and an adapter.
Even this portable charger that everyone is talking about (http://www.amazon.com/Portable-RAVP...id=1447799819&sr=8-18&keywords=type+c+charger) looks like the input is micro usb. So, to use it, I'd have to carry a C-C cord and a wall to micro charger, on top of my phone charger.
Any one come across this yet?
Thanks!
The USB Type-C port on that battery pack can be used to either charge your phone, or to charge the pack. Type-C allows for charge to go either direction. You wouldn't have to carry a wall to micro charger, you could use the google charger you linked.
"Type-C Input and Output: The first ever external battery charger with USB-C/Type-C. Use it to quickly recharge the 20100mah external battery, or to power the latest computers and smart devices with USB-C/Type-C ports"

So, if you carried around that google charger to charge the battery pack, and plan on charging the other devices only from the battery pack itself, you would need:
1) A USB-C to C cable = to charge the nexus from the battery pack.
2) A USB-A to micro USB cable = To charge the blackberry, wife's phone, etc, from the battery pack. (I assume you have these already.)
I hope that made sense.
I have seen somewhere (probably the USB spec) that female USB-C ports are not allowed on cable adaptors. I have seen USB-C to micro USB male cables on Amazon, so if you carried one if these with you, you could charge any micro USB device with your 6P charger.
Also, +1 on the portable battery charging via USB-C. I wonder if it has pass through charging...The ability to charge usb devices while charging the battery itself.

Thanks Elnrik. I didn't see that about the type C in and out. It's still more than cables and things than I would like to carry - the two cables you mentioned, on top of the google charger, the portable battery itself, and the phone. I guess it'll have to do (for now at least).

It will work fine... One with a higher rating may charge faster, but it shouldn't be significantly different.
Many Friends are puzzled about why their phones cannot get into the super charging mode or quick charging mode. It may be that they didn’t know that it is necessarily to use the right charger and data cable.
Today, I wanna introduce the Huawei’s Charger and data line to you, it may do some helps for you to get the speed that you expected.
First. Four types of charger for Huawei phone
Huawei mobile phone chargers are divided into four categories: ordinary charger, quick charger, super charger, and 40W super charger. There is a most quick and effective method to help you distinguish these four types of chargers.
1) If the maximum output voltage is 5V, the maximum output current is 2A, it is a normal charger.

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2) If you see "QUICK CHARGE" on the charger nameplate, and the maximum output voltage is 9V, the maximum output current is 2A. It is the fast charger. It is also compatible with 5V/2A
3) If you see the "Super Charge" on the charger nameplate, and the maximum output voltage is 5V, the maximum output current is 4.5A, it is the super fast charger. It is also compatible with 5V/2A
4). The last one is the 40W super fast charger for the most popular Mate 20 Pro mobile phone. On the nameplate, in addition to the "Super Charge", the "Max 40W" label and the battery fast charge icon are added. Of course, it can also be distinguished from the maximum output voltage of 10V and the output current of 4A. It is compatible with 9V/2A, 5V/2A
The charger is as described above, Next, let's introduce the three types of Huawei data cables which marched with the above chargers.
Second. Huawei three data Cables
Supports 2A Micro B data cable for normal charging, 3A Type-C data cable for the fast charging, and 5A Type-C data cable for the super charging. So how can we distinguish these three data cables?
1) If the plastic core of the data line is white and only has one-sided letters, then it is a Micro B data cable that supports 2A charging.
2) If the plastic core of the data line is white and the two cylinders are marked with the letter "3A", it is a 3A Type-C data cable that supports 3A and 2A charging.
3)The plastic core of the 5A data line is purple, and the data line is marked with 5A at the end of the data line. It supports 5A super charge, which is also compatible with 3A and 2A.
Now talk about how to match the charger and charging cable.
Third. Huawei mobile phone charging mode
Ordinary charger +2A/3A/5A data cable => Ordinary charger
9V2A fast charger + 2A / 3A/5A data cable => fast charger
5V4.5A super charger +5A data line => super charger
40W super charger + 5A data line => super charger
Using the original charger and data cable to charge will be better. But, you must confirm whether the phone supports the fast charge or the super charge firstly when you buy the package.
Note:The above pictures are for reference only.

I am very happy that this article is useful.
What I am doing lately is leaving the phone during the night charging on a 300mA charger so it slowly charges from about 20 to 50-60% . Because that's enough for my type of use. And I try not to charge the battery close to 100% unless it's an emergency.
I'm sure this phone works fine with aftermarket chargers like the Anker PowerPort Atom PD 2, but will it charge the phone faster? While the 18W fast charger included with the phone is good, it is admittedly slow to charge the massive battery this thing has.. I don't really care about reducing the lifetime of the battery all that much given that i usually don't use a single phone for longer than an year so i'd be happy if an aftermarket charger can charge the phone faster without setting it on fire.. Any thoughts?
I currently use USB-PD 30W charger + type Cs cable, and it shown fast charging. But I am not sure which standard it use because it also support QC4+, MTK PumpCharging, VOOC, Samsung's adaptive charging and Huawei super charge XD

Sketchy as it is used for marking 30W wireless and 100W wired I believe. Mind using an app that checks the reall wattage speed? Maybe (Ampere)?
Redmi Note 8 Pro uses Type-C interface, and the data transmission standard is USB2.0. Supports Quick charge4 + fast charge protocol, USB Power Delivery (USB PD) fast charge protocol, MediaTek Pump Express 2.0, 4.0.
Give me link for charger Turbo plisss
For me the pixel 2xls charger is showing turbo charging screen as posted above.. charging at 3300 to 3500 mah on accubattery..
For the Stock charger it never went above 3000mah
On stock have 2400 max that way need New charger
I use "Baseus adapter 30W" its quick charge if you use usb cable to tpye c, but this charger use turbo charge if use type c to type c cable
i compare this adapter with stock adapter
this time im compare with app battrey log

My Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 charger shows quick charge. It's one from Hama I got a couple months ago for about 20-30 quid. I am pretty sure any QQC 3.0 charger will work
So is it beneficial to go for aftermarket chargers, specially while using custom roms?
