Samsung 5V/2A adapter compatibility with the S3 - Galaxy S III Accessories

Hi,
I have bought Nexus 10, which came with a Samsung adapter that outputs 5V/2A.
Model number is: ETA-P11JBE
I know that original S3 adapter outputs only 1A.
According to what I've read, the current stated on adapters is the maximum current the adapter can output. If that's true, then I can safely charge the S3 with this adapter without any risk, and the S3 will just pull less than the max current available.
What Do you think? Is this adapter compatible with the S3?

Where to buy original charger?

I need a new charger and i would like it to be original, do you know where to find it?
Nope. And ive looked. Too many fakes anyway and low quality chargers. I use my moto, n1 and an atnt charger for my a/c chargers. And a dual port sony a/c usb charger.
...
I bought one from Amazon just last week. It matches 100%.
The picture on the amazon link shows the micro end of the usb to be off center. The cable I received is identical to the one from Samsung, down to the texture of the cable.

I bought the Galaxy S2 charger, its a normal charger without the socket + usb lead, so it allows me to keep the usb plugged into my PC while i can have the AC charger somewhere else. you can pretty much pick them up anywhere, i got a genuine one from eBay:

Here is an OEM one straight from Samsung but I doubt you will want to pay the price.

You can try to get a Sony EP850 charger.
The output is 1.5A which charges very fast. I'm satisfied with it!
I just bought this one but haven't received it yet. It looks identical, though apparently it's for the Galaxy Note. Same voltage/amperage though, so I bet its exactly the same thing.

Thanks for the answers
Any microUSB charger with output of 5V/1A will work, but you can find some charger with 5V/2.1A which will also work tablets and support future products.

Actually, I've tried one of my micro USB charger with 2A output.
GN just wont charge on this charger.
But GN charges well with my Nokia 1.2A and Sony 1.5A charger.
I have a charger with 4 usb connector at 5V/2A and it work ok.

The problem with all these charger is they don't use europe connections but UK/USA

Note 10.1 Chargers

Could anyone check the current rating of the supplied charger?
My Note should be arriving soon from the UK - although I could use an international plug converter, I don't really like the idea.
On the other hand I have a Belkin charger for my iPhone for 0.5A. Do you think this is enough?
Thx.
No. The original charger has an output 2 A at 5 V. And even with 2 A the Note 10.1 is only slowly charging.
The charger is rated 2A.
In addition, it uses a nonstandard method for "dumb charger" detection. If you connect an iPad charger or a standard 2A charger, it will not be detected.
The device needs to see D+ and D- shorted together AND floating at around 1.2 volts to charge. Same rules as all other Samsung tablets.
It is possible to find special Samsung Tablet charging adapters that will let it be used with iPad 2A chargers - here's an example of a DIY one - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1675042

I'm using the same ones I had for the 7.0+ and 7.7 and they're charging the 10.1 just fine. Looks like .35A (old eyes here)!
The Tab 10.1 charger should work, right?

Tab 10.1 chargers will work. In fact I haven't even pulled my original charger out of the box, using the Tab 10.1 charger I already have.

My Note won't charge from an iPad charger but it has no trouble charging from an inexpensive PowerGen charger with the original Samsung cable or a cheap copycat cable.

I guess apple and samsung are real bussiness enemies
But, it's still better to use the original charger. And yes correct, with the 2A output rated, the note also slowly charge. Different from the N7000, which is quite fast to charge.
Can anyone link me to an identical charger to that which came out of the box that I can buy? Need to return my Note 10.1 but I have lost my cord.
Edit: Or one that at least looks identical.
Here's a good deal on the OEM charger. Be careful on eBay and Amazon, a lot of what's sold there are knock-offs.

I may pull the trigger on one of these. However, it is disconcerting to see a review of a cord that is also marketed as a a Galaxy Tab cord being reported by a reviewer on amazon as not fitting or charging.
Here's that cable:

The cord on Amazon's probably a knock-off. Yes, I've bought from all4cellular before. I've also gotten burned a couple of times on Amazon and eBay. E-mail them and confirm what's listed on their website is a genuine Samsung product. It may be shipped in a cellophane package vs. retail packaging but that won't matter as long as it’s OEM.

If you wish to burn your GN 10.1, yes. Otherwise, for your safety, no.
There are plenty of car chargers on eBay for the Note & Tab 10.1.
There is a brand called Pleomax, which is another brand name of Samsung accessories out of Korea.
You can also get a Samsung Note 10.1 charger (which is really the same as the Tab) for about 18.00 and plus 3.50 for shipping.
See eBay Item number: 160865117877. This is the one I just purchased.
The Note and Tab chargers are all 12v and 2a rated.

No... They are not. 5 volts output at up to 2A, not 12 volts.
Car chargers accept 12 volt INPUT, but the OUTPUT (to the Tab/Note) is 5v.
12v will fry the Tab/Note. The Note and Tab use a more standard charger detection algorithm than Asus Transformers (which actually have 12v charging...)

Correct. 5v output. I guess I didn't express that clearly.

Car Charger for the 2nd Gen different from 2012 N7...?

It seems the chargers are a little bit different for this model. I had the 2012 N7 and tried like 5 different cables and cahrgers before I settled on the PowerGen Dual USB 3.1A 15w High Output Car Charger from Amazon.
However... I looked at the back of the Ac Adapter with my 2nd gen and its specs are input: 100-240v .25A 50/60hz / output: 5.2v ~ 1.35A
I think the 2012 N7 was Input: 100-240V, 0.3A / Output: 5.0V/2A,10W
What difference will that make in getting some extra chargers...?
I haven't tested my 2nd gen in the PowerGen Dual USB 3.1A 15w cus I don't want to fry it.
The device will only take what it needs, current wise.
If the voltage is 5V, then anything 1.35A or above at 5V should be no problem.

Do you charge both items at the same time while they are operating?
Do you use the standard USB cable for the device in this unit?
I want to use the Nexus 7 GPS and get the signal from my Galaxy s4, so both will be running and need to be on charge most of the time together. Will this work?

Source for power adapter?

I would like to buy a second power adapter and googling hasn't resulted in anything I'd call exact.
LG's part number is mcs-04wr2. It outputs 5V, 1.8a.
Any ideas?
thanks
Any 5V 2A

Hey guy, you can use any Power Adaptor with 5V and 2A. I'm using the original one at home and the one of my older Galaxy Tab 7.7 at work. You can buy any at eBay, Amazon, Aliexpress... But I prefer the Samsung original one, the Power Adaptor for S4 or Note 3 are little and light and works fine, and isn't over 15€ in Spain.
Agreed I am also using the Samsung S4 power adapter. You can get one here:

My generic cellphone charger works fine
Agreed pretty much any wall to USB adapter should work. It can charge off a PC USB port.
all you really need is a mini USB to USB cord and a generic wall charger.
I think an iPad adapter would work, too, just use a microSD cable with it.
The original charger is 1.8 Ah, so any charger of 1.8 or higher will do.
Chargers lower than 1.8 Ah will also work fine, but will take longer for a full charge.
A light phonecharger of i.e. 0.5 Ah will take quite a bit more time.
I also use my S4 charger to charge the tablet.

Original charger tab s3?

Can anyone tell me the part nr of the original tab s3 charger? I bought my tab s3 second hand and got a 3rd brand charger, would like to see if I can get a original but can't find which one that would be...
Is it the standard 15W fast charger which also comes with the S8 and up? I know there's also a 25W version now, but just wondering what it originally came with... Found an EP-TA20 for the 15W and EP-TA30 for the 25W.
Model number EP‐TA10JWE
Input 100‐240V 50-60Hz 0.35A
Output 5.3V 2.0A
Info straight off adapter. Hope it helps.
