This of course depends on who you order from. I ordered mine as an "add-on" order from Amazon here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004OZMWUS/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and it arrived very quickly as they're fulfilled by Amazon.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] PsychDrummer:
I chose the cheapest shipping option and at first it said it was going to take a week to arrive, however I think it only took around 3 days for me to get it.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:

Haha, yeah I am another Winnipegger. Small world! Similar tastes as well, weird.

I thought I'd let you know that the first listing of the "Lot of two (2) New OEM Micro USB Folding Blade Wall Chargers - 5V 1.8A Output" for the US of A has also ended. Shame, I was just about to buy a few.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mZimm:
Looks like they are available for $1.29 on Amazon:

Got the chargers today! Very good for the money. They charge quickly and have a 6 foot cable which is awesome.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Thanks for the heads up. I will update the OP.

Thanks for the heads up, I will use that as a replacement in the OP. That's a ridiculously low price! Hopefully it lasts long.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Joh@n:
I purchased this one:

http://www.ebay.nl/itm/Genuine-Blac...ternational-Charger-ACC39344201-/321335124193

It does around 1490mA, so I am pretty satisfied. With the Q8 QI charger it averages around 600mA. It came in after only a few days from the UK to the Netherlands, so shipping was fast as well. Came with an EU, UK and US plug so I can use if wherever I go.

[MENTION=3746653]mmmmBACON[/MENTION]

Can you please visit this link and confirm whether this is the same ecomoto cable which you're using?? :D Are there any alternatives available now?

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004OUCU5K/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A1W70VU1ORDJNZ

I also found the same Blackberry charger... Is this the same one? :D http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004OZMWUS/
[Nexus 5 Accessories] lotherius:
I ordered the one from that link and it works great. Charges like it should at the rated amps (forgot the exact number, but it's where it should be for a 2amp charger).
[Nexus 5 Accessories] nldxda:
Ordered 2 for $5 from the eBay listing a couple weeks ago..

The BlackBerry folding blade chargers work fast!! I don't even use my wireless charger much with these charging so much faster..

Thanks for the post!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] TonyTurboII:
$1.29 amazon price is gone.

Thats what I get for waiting 24 hours to order more...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
I found a new listing from him for 2x chargers @ same price, so I've added it to the OP.

Yes, that is an Ecomoto cable, but is not the exact same SKN as the one I have. I'm sure it is still just as good, and is probably just from a different device or region. The one I have is a SKN6378A that I got with my Motorola Atrix 4G.

You can get the exact cable I have from here: http://www.a4c.com/product/motorola-skn6378a-micro-usb-data-cable.html It is $2.95 and has free shipping if you are in the US.

Yes, that also is the same Blackberry charger. But if you want to spend $1.05 more, you can get the 2x bundle from ebay. I have added a new link to the OP, with a $4.99 bundle of 2 chargers.

**EDIT: Sorry, I just noticed you aren't in the US. Yeah, that Moto cable link I gave you/ebay charger bundle may not be the best deal if not in the US with the extra shipping.

Yeah, it doesn't surprise me that that one sold out fast. That deal was fantastic. I did find a new bundle for the 2x folding blade from the same ebay seller. It isn't listed under Blackberry Folding Blade so it's easily missed, but I stumbled on it when just looking through his items for sale.

It's at the same $4.99 for 2x as before.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] -Johan:
Is there a version of this with just the round spikes, not sure what you'd call them, blades perhaps?

Don't really like the travel one and the others won't work in the Netherlands I'm guessing?

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Accessories] _jordan_:
These chargers are really fast.

No idea why.

6ft cable is so convenient too.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Awesome, I unstriked the link in the OP. Good to know that it actually does come back in stock, and at the same price. I may just leave it unstriked with a note at the end.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] -Johan:
Does anyone know this, please?

Or is there an alternative, I can't seem to find the Google one mentioned in the OP as well.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. Do you just mean you are looking for the AC Adapter without the cable attached?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] SKYLINESSUCK:
I just checked and they are listed as $3.98 each now. Still cheap.

I grabbed 10 of them @ $1.29. Sorry, that may have contributed to them selling out so quickly :o A lot of people here at work love using the one I had bought previously so much I have to wait in line to use my own charger now! Hopefully soon I won't have to wait anymore.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Gotta get em quick hahah! If you didn't buy 10, someone else would have.

The link I have in the OP still has them at $1.29

I bought one from the UK link. Excellent, quick charger - really solidly built

Anyone found a seller that ships to Asia with reasonable shipping fees?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] -Johan:
I'm looking for this charger with the round pins you stick into the wall, the bottem ones on the picture of the travel version. I guess you could call it the EU edition.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Unless it's the travel version of the charger, I don't think they make an EU specific version as far as I know (or have found anyway).

You can always just use an adapter that fits on top of the prongs. Just search "EU plug adapter" on Amazon, Google, etc. and you will find tons of them. You could probably even go to a local shop and get them for cheap too. That's as close as you'll get I think.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] _jordan_:
I own this charger and its excellent.

Why is this the case? Can anyone explain why it is so much better than the stock charger which is a 2amp?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Quickfire:
Stock charger is 1.2A.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] cdonald:
Thanks for this tip... these chargers are great! :good:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] NotFromMountainView:
Free Shipping in Canada Too!

After you did such a great job breaking the usual costly shipping news to us fellow Canadians it looks like Amazon has somehow colluded to force you to update the post. Both sellers you linked have the charger with free shipping to Canada! I'm not a heavy Amazon user, but till now I've never seen free shipping on individual items. And no tax to boot! (This can not possibly be right.)

I ordered a two-pack from The Wireless Company and here's my receipt:

I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop with some surprise (hefty) charge. Btw, I'm in Ontario, we do have sales tax.

Finally, thanks a million for letting me know about this, it was exactly what I needed & I went directly from your review to clicking BUY!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] TonyTurboII:
FUUUUUUUUU

I had some of the chargers in my Amazon cart last night for $1.29 each and forgot about them until this morning. They went up...
[Nexus 5 Accessories] hx4700 user:
Please could you let me know which of the extensions allows you to see the mA charging current? I have searched PLay store and XDA and cannot find one.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] TonyTurboII:
If you have current widget installed an extension option will be available in dash clock.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] hx4700 user:
Thanks. I was looking for a dashclock extension, and none of those battery apps provided the information. I've now installed current widget, but it seems that it is necessary to put the widget on one of the home pages too! Until I did, nothing showed in dashclock.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
It's not part of dashclock, it's a separate app. You just add it to a home screen and set the update interval.

uk folks and op.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-B...ories_MobilePhoneChargers&hash=item3f37b8d098

found it for £3.99 on ebay.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] -Johan:
Is there any alternative to this charger? Preferably from Ebay as I don't have a creditcard to pay with. Thanks..
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Letitride:
LOL, I know & saw that myself. Ordered 2 BB charger last Friday morning & they shipped out same day via USPS out of NH - got it on Monday. It's great, long & heavier cord than the average usb charging cable and @ $2.58 shipped free for two - it's a practical "steal" price.

Using one @ home in the LR so that I can do a fast recharge while relaxing with the extra long cord and the 2nd. one going into the travel packing cube, retiring one of the slower 1A charger by LG. It is very compact and a folding - polarized blade is a PLUS, plus and fast enough to recharge the Nexus 7 as well.

It's always nice to have a spare charger within easy reach as one never knows it is needed.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] G111444:
I apologize if this is hijacking the thread, but...

Why does the widget show mA values in the hundreds even when my phone is not charging? When I plug in the charger it increases, but it shouldn't show any value when not plugged in, right?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Fr0HiKE:
In for 4, you da best!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] TonyTurboII:
You would think so, but besides showing the charging values, it also shows you your battery draw when there is no charger plugged in, so the values should be significantly lower.

Hey guys a little help...I found this one BlackBerry Playbook internationaler Hocheffizienz-Reiselader (5V, 2A)

But it isn't the one with 1,8A Output this one has 2A. Is it worth buying it ? Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
That one is in the OP as well listed under "international travel version". It's been confirmed to be a great performer as well.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Nexu5uxeN:
Just wanted to say that I found my own alternative charger beast that cranks out 1500 constantly since I had no success using the blackberry option and generic 2.1amp chargers I bought off eBay. Really glad I take a stab on this device and it actually paid off. Look around for better deals also

Can't post links due to postcount but it is the OEM LG G2 1.8amp charger, has brought me ridiculous charge rates. Partner it with a good cable (using current widget) and enjoy

Try searching Genuine G2 wall charger (I use the AU plug, so options are avaliable)

I ordered 4 of these blackberry chargers. According to Current Widget the best I was able to get was ~ 1000 mA, no different than I am getting with the stock LG charger. Is there something I need to enable in the kernel to achieve these higher charging rates?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Kenchinito:
Hey I was looking into Dashclock and I can't find the extension that lets me see the "mA" rating of the charger. Would you mind pointing me out to the extension?

Great charge btw, I ordered 2 already.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dweekie:
What percent was your battery at when you measured? You hit higher speeds in the first 90% of charging. Then it slows down to what you are seeing.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] aviara:
Yep
[Nexus 5 Accessories] evodon84:
below 20%

Care to elaborate on that answer? Please.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dweekie:
Check every 10%, Im pretty sure its slower at the lower percentages as well.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dsmpampis:
Hey guys I've got the European model with 2A output and I have to say that it's amazing! Ok I don't get 2000 or 1800 but I get a steady 1400-1500 until it gets to 80% then the output it's almost 1000 but from 8% - 100% takes about 1h 40M!

(I have the HTC One_M8)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dsmpampis:
One question though, when I'm charging my phone the battery temperature is always 38-40 degrees! Is that normal?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jimbobalu:
I have to agree that this is the best charger. It charged my powered off Nexus 5 from ~20% to full in like 15 minutes. A little slower when powered on but still fantastic charging and I have not noticed the phone getting hot.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] :
Hi guys. I found on ebay similar charger from BB but not the same name. It is "New Genuine Blackberry Playbook 5V 2AM 2Amp International Micro Charger". Do you think this one will be good too? Maybe somone has it? I can`t post link because im new.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dsmpampis:
This is the the one that I have! It is very good and can charge my phone (HTC one m8) from 13% to full in 1h 30m! Go for it!

Search their site for ACC-39344-201
[Nexus 5 Accessories] kronflux:
I'm really skeptical as to how much better this will be than the stock charger. The stock charger is 1.2A, and shows AC charging for me.

Using stock cable as well, and no issues.

Charges fairly fast(although I've never actively watched it)

I might order one of these just to see how much of a difference it makes :P Normally I charge my phone every night when I go to bed, so I normally don't care how long it takes to charge - I've yet to kill the battery from daily use.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] shmizan:
Skeptical? How so? 1.8 is 1.5 times faster than 1.2 and it seems to have less losses as well.

Anyone know of a good dual-port charger?

Anyone happen to know of a good dual port USB charger for fast charging Nexus devices on both ports? I picked up this PowerGen charger:

http://smile.amazon.com/PowerGen®-2...24584&sr=8-20&keywords=usb+charger+multi+port

but only one port will get up to 1A of charging. The other port is "the Apple port" and will only do about .4A using the same cable (Motorola SKN6378A).

It seems that most dual ports have one Apple port and one non-Apple port which leads me to believe it will have the same results. I dont own any Apple products so it would be nice to have a dual port charger that could fast charge non-Apple devices on both ports.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Represent:
I got these chargers but my Nexus gets kinda hot sometimes when using them. this normal?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dweekie:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00GTGETFG

This will do 1A on the nexus 5 on all ports.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] phoenyx:
Thanks for that link. It looks like it would be pretty handy for the house. I was actually looking for something a little more compact like a 2-port travel charger. I have a couple of them and looked at many more only to be disappointed that both ports aren't fast charge capable with the same type of device.

I did order Anker's dual port car charger with PowerIQ, hopefully that will replace the dual port car chargers I have that do not fast charge Androids.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] DoubleDroz:
Car charger

Does anyone have experience with a car charger - either single OR dual port - that can charge the Nexus 5 at at least 1A? Almost every charger seems to be apple compatible and gives less than 300mA for me.

To make matters more difficult, I'm in Australia, so none of the Anker products seem to be shipped to me - though it's very possible that I'm a bit retarded when it comes to Amazon and international shipping

Google Nexus charger on playstore also has 1.8A charging. Although from past experience, the slower the charge the better it holds the charge. Try charging from pc at 500ma from 0-100 and the same with a fast charge. You'll notice the charge on the pc is held better. As a chemical engineer I could go into depth why but in layman terms the chemical reaction when charging via USB is slower so the reactions are more likely to go to completion :)
