Arrow Reconnaissance mission to find the mysterious ep850

So here is the thing
There is a charge for Xperia S called ep850

Indeed it is the charger that some reviews have mentioned that charges your mobile phone to the max on About 1 hour

I myself have an ordinary ep800 but I would like to buy a ep850

The problem is that I can not find it anywhere so i can buy it.


I there fore declare a Reconnaissance mission to track it down and KILL IT(buy)!!

WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE!!

I got the EP850. It's marked as Sony Ericsson.

Tried to find it with google. Also with serialnumber. Can't find any info on it.

Strange, those different types in different markets.

I've mentioned it before. As long as it has 5V and more than 1.5A output, it'll act the same as the EP850. I used my Transformer Prime charger which outputs 1.2A to 2A and it charges in an hour too. Try finding chargers that are used for high capacity devices like a tablet charger.

Going to try the iPad 10W (5V@2A) to see if it works just as well.
I tried looking for the EP850 on Amazon UK, eBay and Google Shopper and no luck.

So an HP TouchPad charger would suffice for the quick-charge?

I was abit worried at first as well but then found this and it seems fine:

Doesnt to much mA hurt your phone? Let we say the battery?

Or does the Phone allow max 1500mA?

It does more damage to the charger actually. The battery only accepts a certain level of current, but if you have a charger that feeds in higher, it heats up for not being able to pass it to the device.
