Anyone tried using a Rocketfish microUSB Wall Charger?

Just curious. I bought one months before purchasing the S6, for my M7. "Nice little backup charger for the office" I thought. I'm now using it for the S6, and I'm blown away by what I'm seeing. The charger was not rated as a quick charger when I bought it (unless I'm mistaken), but it's behaving that way when I plug in the S6. At 3:58p today I was down to 48% battery. I figured "better get a little juice before leaving the office and hitting the gym...". Fast forward to 4:28p (screen off) - I check the phone - 84% battery. Holy crap...

Maybe I inadvertently have a quick charger, or I guess it's because of the 2.1 amps? No clue but in case anyone was looking for a spare charger for their S6, this Rocketfish one might be worth it.

It's the 2.1 Amp availability. Check the charge (Galaxy Charging Current Lite) - you'll probably find it's drawing about an Amp (maybe even more). I normally charge my Note 3 wirelessly, but if I need a quick charge, the 2 Amp wall charger can do about the same numbers as yours did (and the Note 3 doesn't have any quick charge capability).

Cool - I was thinking the same. Another benefit to this phone! Friggin' loving it!

It is probably charging around 2a. 2.55ah/2a = 1.28 hr =78 minutes. So 30 minutes is around 36%. Keep in mind though near the top, charging a slows
