Can anyone point me to a good replacement charger?

[Laurent Calderon]

Hi,

The Cube i9 charger is a 12V/2.5A so I guess you could find a replacement if you know the diameter of the cube connector (I think someone already asked this here or at XDa).

Another good alternative is to buy a UBS-C charger. I bought the “iVoler 75W USB type C charger” on Amazon and an “Aukey USB-C to USB-C 1m” and it works pefectly (plus you have 3 “standard” USB ports for your other devices).

Thanks for your response Laurent, iv’e got the iVoler on order. I thought it may be a bit slow to charge, but glad to hear it works fine. I’d also like to get a traditional charger as back up. But, I don’t want to blow up the tablet plugging in one with the wrongs amps or volts or whatever 🙂

I can’t recommend it yet, because I just bought it and I’m expecting delivery, but for reference purposeses I bought this one….its 12V 3V…

…the same store sells a 12V 2.5A, but I thought I better get the higher Amp. one, just in case the other falls short or has a hard time providing the rated amperage

1.2A too low

Hi @kurpter thanks for the Argos link that looks ideal. I’ve got one to pick up, brilliant.

I’ve got the ivoler hub, but feel better knowing i’ve got a normal charger too. Especially as i bought a usb c cable that started to lose connection over time. If my usb c failed, i’d have no way to charge it. Luckilly it wasnt the usb c port, or the ivoler, just the cable.

Thanks everyone for your responses, I appreciate it.

you just answered 2 questions i had…my usb c to tablet stopped charging properly(it used to be able to fully charge the i9 even if i was using it) so recon the usb c cable is naff. And now know what proper charger to get.

cheers guys.

edit. oops i am now confused..is it 5.5 mm x 2.1mm  12 volt at 3 amp or 5.5mm x 2.5(not 2.1mm) again at 3 amp

Did you receive it yet? Is the charger working? I think this charger’s size is wrong.

I ordered this one (yet to receive it) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111969067107?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT and size is Connector:3.5*1.35mm

[Steven Hepple]

Yes, i will keep my eyes on this thread as i would like a back up normal charger. 3.5mm is right, but the last size has me stumped…it could be 2.5, 2 or 1.35. Now as the above charger is actually for the cube i9 i would guess its the right size…..heres hoping.

The width of the charger is 3.5. The second number is for the length I think. If it is the length it wont matter as long as it is 1.35 or over.

I am not sure that it is the length though, make sure before you order

Argh, I triedd the Argos charger and my i9 switched off and won’t come back on. The red charging light doesn’t come on when I try to charge via USB c. I’m sure I’ve fried something.

 

Doea

Does anybody have an idea????????
