Default 900mA mini car adapters with USB port(s)

http://www.amazon.com/Powerjolt-Dual.../ref=pd_cp_e_1

Anyone know if there are any devices like this that has 900mA output (or know what output the linked one has)? Seems that's the minimum needed to charge the Charge via USB. My current one rated at 700mA does nothing when plugged in the Charge.

My friend has one something like this and I was using it for my Charge and it worked fairly well. I am not sure if it is the same one but they look the same size, I just used the usb that came with the charge to plug into it and it worked. It also works well with his iphone 4 if that helps at all.

$1.99 free ship, takes a while because it comes from china, but worth the wait it is 1000ma like the wall charger.

Do you actually own this? I'm pretty interested in it as mine has stopped working.

I came from the fascinate and the wall charger was only 0.7A and the Charge wall charger is 1.0A

I was looking at some brands and found a Belkin Micro Charger for the car that charges at 2.1A (Says rapid charge)

Checked around for any other products and found this at newegg. $9.99 2.1A USB charger.

Edit: Also found this on ebay. knockoff no name. Looks the same as a scosche one I found.

This is rated at 2A and still retains the factory Cig plug if you need it:

Input: 12 ~ 24VDC. Output 5.0 ~ 5.5V. Output Current: 2000mA (total for the 5 charge ports)
The description says 2000mA total for the 5 charging ports. Is each one rated at a lower Amp or it is 2000mA to a device until you plug in another one.
