Two awesome Qualcomm Quick Charge deals today. First up is the Tronsmart C3PTA 3 Port Car Charger featuring 1 Quick Charge 3.0 port and two VoltIQ ports. Next up is the popular Tronsmart 5 Port Charger featuring 1 Quick Charge 2.0 port and 4 VoltIQ ports.

AU$ based on exchange rate at time of posting. Free shipping included on all orders with express courier options available.

What is Quick Charge and VoltIQ?

Tests have shown that a 3500mAh battery can be charged from 0% to 60% in only 30 minutes for any compatible device using Qualcomm's Quick Charge 2.0 technology. Quick Charge 3.0 improves upon QC 2.0 by employing the Intelligent Negotiation for Optimum Voltage (INOV) algorithm improving efficiency and speed. Quick Charge 3.0 can charge compatible devices up to 4 times faster than conventional charging with some devices reaching 80% in 35 minutes. QC 3.0 is backwards compatiable with QC 2.0 and will charge non-QC devices with VoltIQ.

The chargers also utilise a technology called VoltIQ that is able to detect the charging protocol used in the device to provide the faster charging (up to 5V/2.4A) without the risk overheating, overcharging and short circuiting etc. This is suitable for devices that do not support Quick Charge including the iPad and iPhone.

Please checkout GeekBuying's Fan Festival where you have the chance to vote on which high value products will be sold for $9.90 US on March 14. There will also be other $0.10 US and $9.90 US flash sales during the promotion.

    Tronsmart QC 3.0 3-Port Car Charger

    I'm still happy with the Tronsmart 'Barrister' model… Might upgrade soon though if the price drops further…

  • jollster101 on 09/03/2017 - 13:39

    Is the car charger beneficial for the Nexus 6P in being able to rapid charge given the 6P doesn't formally support Qualcomm's QC.

    • adrianhughes1998 on 09/03/2017 - 13:53

      Not exactly sure as 6P supports USB power delivery.

    • johnnyle on 09/03/2017 - 14:08

      Using the same one on for my S7 Edge, which doesn't have Qualcomm's QC either, I can say it works pretty well. Fully charged in similar time, just like when I use the charger from Samsung, which supports the QC on the phone. Hope this helps.

    • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 09/03/2017 - 14:17

      Nexus 6P uses Type-C Fast Charge (5V/3A) and with this it'll use VoltIQ (5V/3A). A USB Type-C or USB-PD car charger would allow you to get the full 5V/3A, but it'll charge fast regardless.

      • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 10/03/2017 - 11:19

        Typo'd sorry.

        Nexus 6P uses Type-C Fast Charge (5V/3A) and with this it'll use VoltIQ (5V/2.4A).

    Hi rep. I bought one of the 4 port qc 2 chargers a while back from geekbuyihg. Looks like this one.
    http://m.geekbuying.com/item/-Spain-Stock-Tronsmart-Quick-Ch…
    I am getting really bad line noise from it if I'm charging and using the aux to the car stereo.
    Do you know if these new ones have any form of line conditioning to prevent these issues? I had noticed on a previous deal listed another member mentioned the same problem and an alternate (and slightly more expensive) brand that doesn't have the issue. I'd prefer to stay with the tronsmart brand as I know they are great for quick charging. I just can't put up with the line noise anymore though.

    • ash2000 on 09/03/2017 - 14:32
      +9

      I had the same issue with many brand name chargers. It's not an issue with the charger, it's a ground loop isolation problem.

      This solved the problem for me. No loss in volume or quality.

      Edit: Remember Jaycar has a change of mind refund policy, so test the device whilst you're still parked outside the store.

    do u have a device that has USB Type-C and qc3/volt iq?

    • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 09/03/2017 - 14:28

      Yep. Tronsmart have plenty of QC 3.0/Type-C Chargers and USB-PD/Type-C Chargers. What is your preference?

      • Make it so on 09/03/2017 - 14:39

        I'm also after a multi-port QC 3.0 charger (preferably 5-port), combined with a type-C cable (as my wife has managed to get her second cable destroyed by our Neato Botvac - sigh….)
        Can you do a deal on a 5-port QC3.0 Wall charger with a USB Type-C cable? Or if need be, a combo-option for the QC2.0 charger of this deal to add a Type-C cable?

      • ant75a on 09/03/2017 - 14:41

        my next phone which will be the samsung s8 which may be Type C but my partner had S5 and IPhone. trying to plan ahead and get best car charger that will work with these devices and charge the quickest

        • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 09/03/2017 - 14:54

          Samsung S8 is rumoured to have the unreleased Quick Charge 4.0 technology. Tronsmart will have chargers available at release.

      • abb on 09/03/2017 - 15:27

        I second the vote for a deal on PD type :)

      • CVonC on 09/03/2017 - 15:32

        No 4 port car chargers eh?

  • bennos on 09/03/2017 - 14:44

    Stupid question, but can't be bothered investigating while at work. Does QC 3 give faster charging on a non Qc3 device? Similar to IQVOLT? There is no issue with using QC#3 port on non Qc3 devices?

    • Make it so on 09/03/2017 - 14:46

      No, it will not. Quick Charge uses a higher voltage than non-quick charge - it will not do so if the device is not compatible (boom). I also would not expect QC 3.0 to charge a 2.0 compatible device faster.

      • GregMonarch on 10/03/2017 - 16:53

        Note that your comment could be taken two ways… Plugging a non-quickcharge device into the quickcharge port:

        1. Means Quickcharge won't activate to charge the device any quicker, because if it did - it would destroy the device due to the increased voltage applied.

        2. WILL destroy a non-Quickcharge capable device.

        • Make it so on 10/03/2017 - 17:13

          I meant (2) :)

        • GregMonarch on 11/03/2017 - 08:47

          @Make it so:

          Huh!? Is that correct? i.e. You're NOT to plug a phone that doesn't have QC capability, into a QC port? If so, that's a terrible design flaw… Someone could walk in, ask to charge their phone, I don't think to warn them, they choose the blue port because it stands out more, and bang! Surely they've included a sensing circuit so the port doesn't deliver the high voltage?

        • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 11/03/2017 - 09:01
          +1

          @GregMonarch: Plugging a non-QC device into a QC port will NOT damage the device in any way. The charger and phone both have a controller that need to make a handshake for QC to kick in. If there is no handshake then the QC port will charge at the standard rate of up to 5V/2.4A.

        • Make it so on 11/03/2017 - 10:15

          @GregMonarch: sorry, I wasn't paying attention. My original comment meant "it will not use a higher voltage if the device is not compatible".

  • bbtlovebbt on 09/03/2017 - 15:08

    Is Tronsmart better than BlitzWolf? I found BlitzWolf is not very good. The fast charge (using car charger to my note 4) does last as good as using original charger. For normal charging (ex. to tablet), the charging speed is fun - could be very fast, could be very slow.

    • IamEzza on 09/03/2017 - 15:24

      Not sure about charging speeds, but the Tronsmart chargers are a bit better quality than the Blitzwolf. The Blitzwolf often have annoying coil whine, the Tronsmart don't and seem super reliable and well built.

      • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 09/03/2017 - 15:29

        Furthermore a lot of Tronsmart products come from their own factory.

        • GregMonarch on 11/03/2017 - 09:07

          And did the Blitzwolf come with it's own suitable cable, or did you use one from elsewhere? (Some cables do, some can't - deliver the best charging capacity available from chargers.)

  • [Deactivated] on 09/03/2017 - 15:24

    • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 09/03/2017 - 15:33

    Also, does anyone sell lightning to usb-c cables other than the ripoff ones from Apple?

    Ta.

  • iversonjack on 09/03/2017 - 16:26

    I have Samsung Galaxy s7 edge, will I see the same charging speed using the tronsmart car charger here, as the adaptive fast charger that came with the phone? thanks.
    side note: not sure if noob question, but does different micro USb cables limit fast charge?

    • zealmax on 09/03/2017 - 19:13

      Yes it will charge faster, as long as you are using QC port and not the VoltIQ port. VoltIQ are fast but don't do higher voltage charging. Yes USB cable matters. Thicker and shorter is better. Less resistance at the same voltage means higher current. V=IR think back to high school physics. I bought a USB multi-meter to check my existing USB cables were compatible with QC. QC cables should be able to output 18W. From experience cheap short cables are OK. Cheap long cables not so good. If you need a long cable get one of the Tronsmart cables.

  • sschen on 09/03/2017 - 17:04

    I really would love a desktop charger with multiple QC2.0 or QC3.0 ports, so I can consolidate all the single-port chargers I have all over the house.

    This one seems to have 5 QC2.0 ports. Any chance of doing a deal on this desktop charger?

    http://www.geekbuying.com/item/Tronsmart-Titan-90W-5-Ports-U…

  • zealmax on 09/03/2017 - 19:18

    I have this car charger, and also the 2 x QC3.0 port charger. I would recommend getting the 2 x QC3.0 port charger, over the 1 x QC 3.0 + 2 x VoltIQ. Unless you have non QC devices that needs charging at the same time. QC 3.0 is definitely faster. I got the 2 x QC3.0 port charger on Aliexpress for US$7 when it was on special.

  • [Deactivated] on 09/03/2017 - 19:59

    Would the QC work with either OnePlus 3 or Galaxy 7?

    • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 09/03/2017 - 20:31

      The OnePlus 3 uses it's own proprietary charging called Dash Charge which is not compatible with Quick Charge 3.0.

      The Samsung Galaxy S7/S7 Edge uses Quick Charge 2.0.

  • ghostknife on 09/03/2017 - 19:59

    Anyone used any QC3 with Moto G4 plus?
    It's not on the supported list but I need something for the car

    • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 09/03/2017 - 20:36

      Motorola are using their own proprietary charging called TurboPower. According to Motorola …

      TurboPower wall and car chargers work best with Motorola phones but will charge any Qualcomm® Quick Charge 2.0 compatible smartphone or tablet at blazing speeds

      So the answer is maybe. It's not listed in Qualcomm's list, but some users online have reported that it works.

    • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 10/03/2017 - 11:04

      No. Quick Charge works by increasing the voltage beyond 5V which normal charging and VoltIQ are limited to.

      For example Quick Charge 2.0 will charge at 5V/2A, 9V/2A and 12V/1.5A while VoltIQ can only go up to 5V/2.4A.

  • Captain Howdy on 13/03/2017 - 20:33

    Thanks for the deal mate. A quick question though: when charging a QC 3.0 capable device on the QC 2.0 port, does the device default to QC 2.0 speeds or just it just charge like a regular device?

    • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 13/03/2017 - 20:51

      Defaults to QC2

      • Captain Howdy on 13/03/2017 - 21:00

        Thanks mate. Just because you seem to know what you're talking about, can I ask an semi-related question? Does the USB cable itself matter when using QC devices - i.e. will most any cable of quality be able to deliver the increased speed if both the charger unit and device are capable, or do you need specific cables?

  • oz-stef on 20/03/2017 - 12:22
