    Hello, how do you decide what current (how much Amper) the phone charges my charger ??
    I want to know if I got a sell that loads 1A and it's written 2A because the charger loads very poorly.
    Greetings.

    The charging current is managed by the phone and not by the charger.

    Yes, but only up to the maximum value of the charger's current. If this can not be done, management will not do anything.

    The phone manufacturer probably knows best what kind of current a charged battery should be and attaches to the appropriate power charger.
    If you want to measure the current supplied by the charger, connect the ammeter in series with the power output.

    That's right, only the author of the threads did not write whether it's the original charger attached to the phone.

    Buy yourself such a clutch. It costs a dozen or so zlotys and is very useful.

    If you do not measure it is enough to use an appropriate tester / meter for usb, e.g. such http://www.gotronik.pl/miernik-napiecia-pradu-mocy-portu-usb-p-3994.html

    Only sometimes not for the price ...

    Ok, I'll think about it. I still have a question about the charging cable. Which cables do you recommend 2.1A for fast and accurate charging?
    I want to buy it, because these 1A Chinese cables are driving me crazy.

    I recommend "Chinese" or BlitzWolf cables, very nice are bilateral bilateral, you can connect as you like, although they are a little expensive and probably not available in Poland. http://www.blitzwolf.com/BlitzWolf-BW-CB6-2.1...o-USB-6.56ft2m-Charging-Data-Cable-p-103.html I have two such 2m, they are very good quality, tablet charged with a current of about 2A.

Topic summary

The discussion centers on determining the appropriate charging current (amperage) for phone chargers, specifically comparing 1A and 2A outputs. It is clarified that the charging current is primarily managed by the phone, which draws current up to the maximum capacity of the charger. Users are advised to measure the current using an ammeter connected in series with the charger. The conversation also touches on the importance of using quality charging cables, with recommendations for 2.1A cables for faster charging. Brands like BlitzWolf are mentioned for their reliable products.
