[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nate2:
Amazing! I tried it, and with the Asus cable it now charges from 15% to 100% in about 4.5 hours (it used to take 6 to 9 hours).

The Motorola cable took about 3.5 hours.

So what is it about that Asus cable that changes the charging characteristics after it is plugged into a PC and used as a USB connection to the Nexus 7?

Does the cable have some kind of "memory"?! :what:
