Newer phones like the LG G2 requires a 2 amp input for fast charging. Is this cable capable of delivering a 2 amp charge from a 2 amp charger?

Hello Au R. Yes this cable is equipped with 24AWG power conductors which are blazing fast compared to most other cables on the market. Thanks, Mediabridge Customer Support 856-216-8222 support@mediabridgeproducts.com

Yes, definitely! I have an LG G2 which will instantly recognize and reject any Micro USB cable that is not a high-speed charger. This Mediabridge cable, however, fully charges my phone battery in approximately half an hour when it is connected to a compatible USB car charger (I use TopG brand). If my LG G2 is at 50% battery, full battery charge is accomplished in around 10 minutes. (I have not used this cable in a wall adapter, so I have no experience with that.)

Dear Customer, Thank you for your interest in the CX420 car charger! Both ports will provide 2.1 amps to all devices connected to it. This includes iPhones/iPads and any other smart phone. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any other questions or concerns

Definitely by using the included wall adapter. It's faster than using any kind of phone charger because the amperage is higher, 1.5 amps

I have the Verizon G2 and this charger. When it's plugged in to the included cable the G2 reports that it is "slow charging". If the charger and cable really were providing 2A then the phone wouldn't report that.

I use mine with a galaxy note 2, which requires the full 2 amps. I works flawlessly with the stock usb charge cable that came with your phone.

Bill, I think ii's 1amp and not the 2.1amp required to charge the new smart phones and tablets faster. Its worked ok so far!

Don't know what you've looked into so far, but some initial thoughts: 1) although the charger provided may be 2 or 2.1 amps, is the GS4 itself actually rated to charge at that speed, or does it perhaps max out at a lower rate? 2) good you tried different cables, those are always a likely bottleneck - btw, the original samsung cable isn't particularly good for charging, I got higher charging amps out of monoprice and other 3rd party cables. 3) if battery is near full charge, most phones will step down to a lower charging rate - try with a fairly empty (eg 50% or less) battery to see what happens. 4) if you have another device, ideally a power-hungry tablet, see how many amps those will pull on the same chargers and cables.

You can use either but the 2.1 amp will charge faster and is designed for newer devices like the Note or iPad.

No. A 2-prong plug works just fine in this unit. My phone and iPad chargers are both 2-pronged, and they work perfectly with this power strip.

NO! if you hoped for the Fast Charger!!YES! if you want to normal slow chargeI bought this, for my Samsung Galaxy Note 4, like Andres Davila says that he meant NO. Yes, it will slow charge at 5v with 2 amps maximum... This is NOT the quick or Rapid charger that comes with the NOTE 4... That "OEM" charger has BOTH 9.0v and 1.67 amps, and will also charge at 5v 2.0 amps. this charger is fine for all day charging a note 4

I have used the tylt with an LG G2 and G3 and haven't experienced overheating. I am not positive but I believe that it has the same protection against overcharging (source of overheating) as normal chargers.

You need a Micro USB SlimPort (MyDP) to HDMI Male to Female Adapter with 6 Feet USB Charging Cable. The LG G2 is not compatible with MHL...

Hi - the LG model we provide only requires the single USB2.0 cable - unless you are using a very old model computer that doesn't get enough power from the USB - then you'll need to use a Y-USB cable and plug both - we can provide this - Thank you

I believe it was in the description as 2 amp. I worked at the airport and had it attached to my phone in my pocket which became bulky and not much room to use the phone and have it be charging and after about 5 months the cable came loose and wouldn't charge the phone, but I abused the hell out of it being at the airport and in my pocket 8 hrs a day. I would but this again in a heartbeat!

Yes, as a matter of fact it works better than the cheap cables, I've had a few cheap cables go bad and for some reason not allow the phone to draw what it needs to fully charge but this cable meets all my needs for charging and data connections for my Samsung galaxy s4 and will more than meet your needs for the note 2 as well

I've notice that it won't be able to charge a high end phone that requires more than 0.7 amps. It won't charge my Moto G but it will charge my cheap LG phone that uses 0.2 amps.

No. The charger would be damaged if your device needed 2 amps and the charger only provided 1 amp. The 2 amp rating means it could charge 2, 1 amp devices at the same time. I've used it many times without issue on a variety of devices.
