    I’ve been impressed by the Anker 18W USB Wall Charger with Qualcomm® Quick Charge 2.0 Technology for in the home or office, and the Powermod Quick Charge 2.0 Certified D/C In-Vehicle Car USB Charger. Both $20 or less and have been solid for all of my quick charge 2.0 devices.

    Good article, but lots of typos. Maybe get a second person to read it through for you before you post it?

      What is your problem, you condescending arse. Who gives a damn about the typos. It’s about the information supplied, not a spelling test!

    Good info in this quicker, but I’m with A. Bee, when I see typos, bad grammar, it undermines the credibility of the content. Reminds me of those Emails and pic malware scams where the dead giveaway is the grammar…
