Do NOT use Turbo Charger on Android M Dev Previews



Ever since I've been on the developer preview for android m, my nexus has been charging from ~10%-100% in about 30-40 minutes using the turbo charger. I was suspicious whether or not the electrical current was lowering as the battery was getting closer to a full charge so I decided to use the app Ampere to see what was going on. From the results I got in the app, I can confirm that the turbo charger isn't working properly and might even be damaging your battery. With a regular charger, the app showed the max output at 380mA and current output was varying around 200-360mA most of the time at ~90% charged. As for the Turbo charger, the max output was 1420mA with the current output varying around 1300-1420mA at ~90% charged. That is significantly higher than the regular charger when the battery is almost fully charged. If these results are accurate, I would highly recommend not using the turbo charger on the android m developer previews since it can potential damage and shorten your devices battery life. I'll update this post if the next preview fixes the issue.:fingers-crossed:
