Plugs for your Nexus

[SSHGuru]

MonoPrice has been out of stock on their super cheap plugs and they are no longer being carried.

I emailed them to see what would work and they sent me this cool link...

For only $6.80 each when QTY 50+ purchased - 3 Outlet Power Surge Protector Wall Tap w/ 2 Built-In USB Charger - 1050 Joules - Plastic | Power In-Wall Tab

3 Outlet Power Surge Protector Wall Tap w/ 2 Built-In USB Charger - 1050 Joules - Plastic

$7 bucks - that's a great deal.

Idk every off brand charger I buy always makes my screen act funky. Interested to see if these do the same.

Im using all my og chargers with zero issues. In the costco bundle there was a travel charger that connects to the lighter in the car and to regular ac plug.. works great as well, actually i never took the nexus charger out of the box.

Be careful when buying chargers.
1) make sure it will supply enough current ( >500mA)
2) make sure when you plug in that your nexus says "Charging (AC)" and not "Charging (USB)" or you will end up with a slow charge that might not keep up if you are trying to charge it while using it.

That combo surge protector and usb charger says nothing about usb current or about how the usb port is wired.

I know when I had a fascinate my charger cable broke and Verizon gave me a one of there branded ones and every time I used it to charge my phone the screen would select random things and the whole thing would lag more than usual. I actually started to charge it with the USB cable and my computer.
