Thread: Charger for HP Touchpad

I need a new charger for my HP Touchpad. I been looking online but can't seem to find any that stand out.



Whats the best charger to get for the Touchpad in terms of value???

I just bought a replacement charger at Walmart. Of course they didn't have any but was able to buy a generic cell phone charger with the same output specs.

input: ac 100-240v~0.2a
50Hz-60Hz
output: dc5.0v 800mA

When I plug it in I get the warning that it may not charge but it works great. I think I paid $15.

I love my HP Touchstone Charging Dock; it's an inductive charger, so simply placing it on the stand initiates charging. Having it display a clock/weather while on the stand is very nifty, and being able to just grab it with no cable-wrangling and have it in ready-to-use mode (no swipe) is bad-ass... easily worth the $39.99 I've seen it floating around for.

Yea the warning comes up beacuse it doesnt have the same output as the TP charger
Its should be 2amps output or 2000mAh...essentially it'll take more than twice as long to charge using that charger... a great way to monitor it is with the Dr Battery app available in preware

Your best bet is to find a usb to wall adpater that is rated at least 1amp/1000mAh but preferrrably 2amps/2000mAh
Wolf Camera and others carry a travel charging kit that has that.

2Amps somehow is not enough. I'm using HTC Desire charger which is 2Amps but still get the green warning and charging time takes quite long. However, charging the battery which a lower Amps as original always be better a higher one.
