I need to buy a spare charger for my Atom Exec, one that I intend to leave in my office. I tried a lot of chargers with it but the only one that works is the one that came with the unit.
So other chargers do not work with the Atom Exec? The only way for me to charge it is with an ActiveSync PC via USB trickle charge, and the adapter that came with it.
What are your experiences?

Hi there,
I'm using some OEM charges and not all charges will work fine with Atom Exec... I had to try a few model on the spot and got 1 tat can charge my Atom Exec.... And i also found out that a O2 Mini charger is workable also...
Try ur local store which allow you to test the charger on the spot to ensure the one you are getting works...

Guys, Try to get a motorola phone charger. Atom versions have special protection inside that prevents other chargers from working. The same is true with motorola because motorola and gigabyte installed the same protection to their units. I've tried OEMs but only those that work on motorola phones work on my atom. It is the same with car chargers. I'm currently using a car charger for motorola in my car, the stock unit at home and USB for my office.

I see, that's great info. I'll try to look for a Motorola charger then. Hope it works.
Thanks,

I can also confirm that the Motorola desk chargers work fine with the Atom exec.

Awesome, I just got a Motorola charger, it works perfectly. Good thing, Motorola chargers are easy to buy but Atom chargers are like a needle in a haystack.
