Do these cables support high current (>1000 mA) charging of Android devices?

They do! This was exactly the reason I wanted to get them. I have a Samsung Galaxy S 3 and it changes them just fine, as well as my Anker 10500mA external battery.

They are not charging cables if that is what you are asking. I bought them based on the advice here and am disappointed to see that they are not charging cables. The correct pins are not shorted and if you plug it into a conventional USB charging port the phone will not show as charging AC, it will show as charging USB. This is not high current charging. If you plug them into a device that shorts the data pins then naturally the cables themselves can support 1A, like most cables can.

I have been using them on a 1000mA and a 1300mA charger for my Android Incredible. I have the original 1300mAh battery and also have a heavier 2150mAh battery. Both have charged with no problem so far, using a 1000mAh 115VAC to 5VDC Usb charger.

I'm sure it will charge Android but I believe the question was how fast does it charge Android phones. Most of the charger in the market are designed for iPhone/iPad and when they charge Android phones, it limited to only 0.5a which will take a long time to charge. As @Modus Pwnd mentioned, while charging, go to settings -> battery. It will say either charging (USB) or charging (AC).

The cables I received could not. The Galaxy phones check that the metal portion of the micro-b plug body is conductive to the internal ground (meant to be through cable shielding, and these cables are not shielded), which is generally true only on higher quality cables. These cables do not have that conductivity, and so the phone will limit charging amperage to something less than 800 mA.

The charge output is very dependent on your charger & cable. I get anywhere from 400mA to 1900mA using my old chargers and old cables. I do own 3 of these cradles because they are very good.

I have not install them yet but I'm planning to use them for a 12v camera with a low amp of 0.3amp, so I dont think this cables will be able to handle higher amps

No, I use mine all the time with isound 16000mah battery backup it has 4 USB and up to 2.5 amp out got charging high end phones and tablets.

They will charge it, but not as quickly as a USB 3.0 cable will. I have a Note 2 with 10,000 mah extended battery, my wife has a Note 3 stock. She sees a difference in charging times, although we haven't measured it. They are still great cables.

Don't know. They are there to recharge phones, tablets, or whatever else you need charged. Haven't had any problems with the USB ports.

I doubt it. The USB 3.0 spec only allows for 900ma when using data. A charge-only port can go as high as 1500ma. I don't expect this meter would measure much more than that. It should be stated that the 3.1 spec does allow for higher current, and voltage, but I don't think there are any devices supporting 3.1.

Unfortunately, I don't have an OTG Cable for my Android Phone, so I have no way to test this at the moment. I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help.

The answer is Yes. I have a current meter and I have tested it. The port can charge the tablets but slow, and the input current is around 900mA.

Not exactly. Any USB-A to USB micro B cable will work. Some of those cables can be used to both charge and transfer data; those will charge slower than cables designated for charging only.

Look up the "AmazonBasics USB 2.0 A-Male to Mini-B Cable - 6 Feet" and any USB wall charger that gives adequate current (there are many now that are &gt; 1 amp at 5v)

The built-in microUSB cable is reported to produce 1A output while the USB connection is capable of up to 2A. See: http://www.easyacc.com/power-bank/p98-easyacc-ichoc-m5-5000mah-dual-ports-power-bank.html (scroll down to "Technical Details" near the bottom). I haven't taken a multimeter to the leads to test these claims, but they seem pretty reasonable.

Yes, all of our chargers include a multi-use cable that works with Apple, Android, Blackberry, and many more...Thank you for your inquiry,BOTG

Bc these are slow chargers so they dont fry your battery. I use mine for phone only and have no problems.

Thanks. I want to power a wireless charging pad. Will check to see if 1amp is enough for the ravpower pad I have

Absolutely not. Qi isn't capable of anything near rapid charge speeds. In fact it's about 1/2 to 1/3 the speed of the supplied cable.
