OG car charge vs. Bionic car charge on Bionic?

[lkevinl]

So, what's the verdict on using the OG Droid car charger with the Bionic? I feel like it is charging the Bionic very slowly. Could there be some current limiting going on? How well does the stock Bionic car charger work?

I'm currently using the OEM charger that came with the Car Mount kit for my DX and it's working fine.
I do however seem to recall there was some sort of difference (at least cosmetic if not internal) between the OG Rapid Charger and the one for my DX.

I would suggest searching Amazon and finding a new one.. I think they're like $4 if you look

Look on the charger and see how much current it's putting out. I guarantee the og charger is lower than what the bionic really needs.

What is the current value for the Bionic car charger? It would be great to compare.

I'm using this http://www.daqstuff.com/400116_5volt...wer_supply.htm with a couple panel mounted USBs. Seems to work well.

Anyone have the charging values?
Thanks!

5.1v 850mah. The stock OG AC USB adapter is the same as the Bionic.

I have a Motorola wall adapter that is rated at 5v 850mah from my OGD as well. (Hardwred, no separate USB cord)

Thanks Smeech!

The Motorola car charger I got with the Costco deal is rated at 950mA. The part number is SPN5400A.

I can't comment on the car charger, but the wall charger from my OG would NOT charge the bionic. It just sustained charge already there. 3 hours of charging netted me about a 10% boost, after which I swapped out for the charger that came with the bionic. I had an aftermarket charger at work (for the droid1), however, and it charges the bionic just as well as the charger it came with.
