ipega PG-9025 has been shipped. Awaiting anxiously. And still unnecessarily crashing into walls in Asphalt in the meantime.
I use 4 different chargers, but none of them are the stock charger. Ha. (If I remember right, mine isn't built for USA power outlets anyway.)
@mkh is right regarding charger amperage. Ratings I've seen range from 500mA to 2100mA (2.1A). Those ratings denote the maximum current the charger *can* supply. The amount it actually does supply depends on the load (in this case, your phone). In short, a higher amperage charger can charge a device faster up to a certain point... but once you exceed that point, no real benefit or danger exists.
The counter-argument to this is that a battery's biggest enemy is heat. Charging a device quickly heats the battery more, and therefore shortens battery life over time.
