Having received my Anker cables on the weekend, I can confirm that Anker USB-A to USB-C cables still only charge my 5X at normal speed; I require a USB-C to USB-C cable to get faster charging

I have found in order for the nexus 6P to fast charge properly you need to have a type c charger and use a type c - type c cable. It seems to have the type c spec 3A fast charge rather than any of the qualcomm versions any they don't work fully.

My Anker 40W 5-Port USB/USB-C Wall Charger arrived yesterday, with no problems laughing. Tested it last night, and the USB-C Port on it does indeed charge at 5V/3A - exactly what I wanted. Its great with how its got a Figure 8 Cable, wasn't a problem finding one around the house and using that instead of the USA Cable it came with. Also it came with a 3M Adhesive Strip (I didn't realise when I brought it that it was going to come with one) which allowed me to mount it to the side of my desk. A great buy (well worth the money I spent), and loving it.

I have a few Anker products surplus to requirements (I purchased a lot of goods for GZ users last month in the US) including 2 x 5 port USB-C Anker chargers if anybody is keen. Just checking my prices these cost me NZ$47 each incl sales tax so I'm happy to sell for this + $5 shipping for a standard NZ Post bubble bag (think it's $3 extra if you want courier)

 

This is the 1 x USB-C + 4 port USB model

DM me with your shipping details and I'll send you some bank account details.

 

It's this model here - if anybody wants the other one then feel free to DM me. I also possibly have 1 x 6 port USB3 model (https://www.anker.com/products/A2063111) available as well but will just need to confirm somebody else doesn't want it.

Both of the USB-C ones are gone. I may a USB3 Anker available still but I'll post if that's free.

I just had a look at the eBay listing, it still says for me that it can ship to New Zealand for $12.84.
