Anyone know the maximum charging voltage/amps?ot

USB type C seems to be a bit all over the place with this tablet.

I have to say i’m really enjoying it though, especially after installing Cyanogenmod.

Has anyone tried higher output chargers than the supplied 3.0amp charger?

I’ve tried a qualcomm compatible AUKEY charger and it seems to charge at the same rate as the included charger.

 

I’m just wondering if i should buy the dell/apple/google USB C – C charger?

 

Thanks for all the videos Chris and Co.

5Volts 3A is the limit, you can’t go over this, so don’t bother with the Google pixel chargers etc you’ll just waste cash for nothing. Instead I suggest a thicker gauge USB cable and shorter too, this way you don’t loose current via the cable. Also a quality BRAND name charger, the Chuwi one is average and gets hot. I don’t trust it! I charge my Hi12 with a Tronsmart official Qualcomm quick charge 3 charger that does 5 volts 3A, also other voltages for my mobile. It works well.

Thanks for the quick reply. I bought a decent 2m usb C cable and I think i’ll just stick with that and my AUKEY quickcharger.

 

I totally agree the charger that came with the tablet is garbage. It gets hot and emits a high pitched whine at times. Dodgy.

 

Cheers
