That's why trying to look for reliable and simple to use amp tester to see if the adaptor output is as stated. Using phones with input limits does not really measure the true capabilities of an adaptor.

You mean even if the phone max input is at 1.2amp, the tools will show the actual rate coming in before its limited by the phone max input?

Will try it out. Thanks.

There are 3 readings,

Reference 1200
Maximum 1900
Average 1200

I know the average current is the actual charge the phone is charging at.

Question is the maximum indicated in the app, the maximum current the phone can take or the maximum current CURRENTLY charging in (although the phone is taking only 1200 into the battery)?

It display the same for my adapters and XM PB 10.4K pb.

For 10.4k pb with output of 2.1amp, vs adaptor 2amp, the maximum amp should indicate differently if it indicate the true full charge of the adaptors.

That reading are the same no matter what I charge with, be it Samsung chargers, 10.4 xm pb or 5.2k xm pb. So I guess it does not really show the true charging rate from the cables but only show the current and max rate that the phone can take.

That means even xiaomi 10.4k powerbank cable also not 2 amp....

All the original cable that comes with note2 and s4 only not 2amp lor...

Where you get your 2amp cable?

Mm...mine is original note2 charger with the cable, taken directly from note 2 box ler.

So is my S4 charger and cable. Maybe its the phone limiting 1.2k

I have ori 2 note 2 chargers (1 comes with note2) and 2 ori S4 (1 comes with S4) charger comes all same reading.

Using what phone?

You really should know that there are lots of ppl buying handphone without tying themselves down to contract. As a matter of fact, there are lots of smartphone outside that did not even have a plan ala pre-paid or post-paid. All my MI3 are without data plan nor tied to any contract.

Even my S4 was bought without binding myself to Maxis coz in truth after deducting the "forced" plan for high end model, you might turn up paying way more for it than buying outside. The difference with buying outside is you have to pay 1 lump sum instead of "installment" and that's where MI3 comes in. Paying less than RM800 lump sum makes a big difference than paying over 2K for a high end phone. That's why its selling, those prepaid kaki, postpaid without contract or data plan jumped into this and there's ready market for this. All the anti and anker also buying this now...

btw....Xiaomi is using the massively used misleading marketing term "sold" but actually just ordered only. How many ffk without paying after that, only they know...

Actually it did slow down and sort of crash before, the first couple of flash sales but they improved on it. As a matter of fact, up to now, at 12pm whenever sales are on with hot items like 10k pb, mi3 and note, you will notice 10 minutes into the sales, you can feel massive slowdown of the access. The current sites are located in China, with multiple servers, massive bandwidth, china high tech infrastructure, its not really a big deal nowadays.

But someone say better than MI3 ler...

You can use credit card directly or via paypal. 2 choices.

The PB will still be in great demand becoz of the its low price and high quality. I gonna try to get another 4 for family and friends who requested me to get for them.

I got both. While 10.4k pb is value for money when compared to 5.2k. I prefer the smaller pb when carrying it around on daily basis. 10.4k pb reserved for trips. The weight difference is noticeable after you carry it around for some times.

True, charging 10.4K pb using my 2amp charger from 0% to 100% took 8-9 hours. 5.2k will take half of that time and usually the pb is enuf for the whole day, more convenient on day to day usage.

Only upon checkout. That means you have to type in your address detail fast. If you use paypal, even easier, just type some sentence in your address, make SURE your drop down box selection ie, state, city and postcode IS CORRECT. The rest of address, type anything quick.

Then checkout. When paying via Paypal, just click on change on address column to switch in your pre-type FULL address in your paypal into your order.

Got charge meh! I using credit card via paypal buy so many times also no charge. Unless he is talking about new card attach where paypal charge USD1 to verify the card but that amount will be deposited back later one...

Contact paypal and relate your problem to them. Paypal should not charge RM5 for every transaction unless CIMB does it themselves. Verify with Paypal.

They can make small amendment but would not allow complete change of address. The phone number cannot even be amended.

Actually they did coz its a Paypal process to verify the validity of the card. Same with Apple Account also.
