3rd party S5 charger recommendation?

[Thegreatone3]

OK, so the wall charger out of the box is 5.3V/2 amps. Since I don't really want to shell out $40 for another OEM Samsung charger for work, are there any reliable 3rd party chargers that can charge the S5 at full speed? Thanks!

why not just use your old htc charger at work?

It's only 1.0 amp.

I like the Anker 8a charger, it can charge multiple devices at full speed. It is around $26 on Amazon.

If you want the official Samsung, use the 50% codes floating around.

beating a dead horse with this but I'm telling you its a great 2 amp car charger.

I just got two cables at radio shack. They were $26 each, I am using one for a car charger and one at work. I can't tell a difference between these and the Samsung one

Why not just get a USB wall wart and use a regular USB cable?
Amazon.com: Slim Wall Plate and Surge Protector - 3 AC + 2 USB - Add Additional Outlets and USB Ports While Protecting Your Devices - USB Includes 2.1amp Output to Charge iPad, iPhone, E-readers, Android, SmartPhones, and More: Electronics

Some of the cheaper ones with a single USB port are ~$5. Just make sure you get at least 2A output on the USB.

I'm going to try one of these. I have something like it for AC and have a bank of ones in the main family Jeep to charge everything but think this will work better and be a bit more streamlined
