A good USB charger and lead

[SteveF]

Can anyone recommend good ones for DNA200 charging?

I've got a handfull of USB leads that came with various mods and I've found that they are no good.
The two that came with my SDNA200s are duff unstable voltage, the one that came with the rolo gets warm along with the charger.
 I'm down to using my samsung lead.

Ok so Ideally a twin port USB, must have one 2.1 amp USB for my 4 bay charger but otherwise ...reliable?

I find this maker to be pretty good www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00VTI8K9K/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_dp_ss_2?pf_rd_p=569136327&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B00XX4A83O&pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_r=DF9AH0Y9DE9XMQ45BDMQ They do cables too.

I found I was replacing chargers every 5 minutes so I now use a powered USB hub, I know they are meant for a computer but they are excellent for charging and mine has 6 USB ports. Not sure if you can get them with 2 amp ports but I wouldn't be surprised.
Had this one on the go for about 3 years and it is very reliable.

cheers, that appears to be the power source sorted.

high(er) quality USB cables?

Cables:
Pound shop ones the are in the spring loaded real, I think it was Poundland, but not 100%, anyway they vary a fair bit I always have the USB current as one of the charge fields and that cable charges at over 0.9 A, the iTaste one that looks similar only at 0.45 A. The one that came with my Samsung phone also works well. I have also noticed that some USB power sockets are not great and you get more amps pulling the plug out a mm or two, I sometimes put an o'ring around the plug to achieve this.

As I mentioned in post 2 stevef Anker do decent cables and other kit.

Cheers, ordered a charger and 3 their cables apparently thicker 21g charging.

Hope it all works out well for you, no reason to think it won't as I use their charger and it has been flawless.

[SteveF]

thanks for the pointer joeten
hopefully I can get my phone and all 3 DNA200s on change at once instead of swapping leads and ports one device at a time

[joeten]

Should do, I can charge my OH's battery and phone and my cuboid with no problem have yet to try more but don't see an issue other than the more you have on then charging slows a little.

Was in Aldi at weekend suppose may depend on store,and this is for a car!! twin cig lighter with 3! usb ports 2.1a/1.1a/0.9a £3.99

Be careful!

Not all of this type of charger sold on Amazon are good this one has MAINS voltage on the USB ports

[joeten]

I expect you're right DiscoDes. Anker have Apple approved status for their kit
As they have done all the requirements to gain it.

I always buy Anker, they aren't too expensive and I trust them! I use their external powerbanks and their multi usb units so its a +1 from me too
