Motorola Q
Chargers
Hey guy's
just some advice, take it or leave it. Don't waste your money on the travel charger VZW is trying to push for the Q. It is the old V3C charger and it only has an output of 550mA. If you are going to buy another charger make sure it is the one that is supposed to be used with the Q and is rated at 850mA.
I had mine plugged in to the "travel" charger for 7 hours last night and it still didn't make it from three bars to a full charge even though I wasn't using the phone and had killed all running programs before I went to bed.
Even Motorola basically says they aren't worth a crap when the website states "charge time is two to five hours with the phone turned off".
Just my opinion that a charger that only holds the phone...

Does this also hold true for the Car Charger?
I couldn't tell you about that. I am in my car about ten minutes a day so I have no need for a car charger. The web site says it charges to 90% capacity in two to three hours so at least that is better than the travel charger. I wouldn't buy it unless it was at least 700mA. The next time you are in a store look at one and check out the voltage. I tried to find the voltage online but I didn't see it advertised anywhere.
