Hi

 

Does anyone know where you can buy a USB C Wall Charger for the Nexus 5x with a NZ Electrical Plug? Have the one that came with my Nexus and really love the fast charging, but having 2 (1 for Work & 1 for Home) would be even greater :D. Have had a look on Amazon however have found that there are little to none, decent ones on there that have 'universal' pack with a NZ Plug.

The only option aside from Apple was Google, but that ship sailed as soon as the Pixel was not released in New Zealand and the Google Store removed the accessories.

 

The only way I know to achieve "charging rapidly" on a Nexus 5X is to use a 3Amp wall charger in combination with a USB-C to USB-C cable (using USB-A to USB-C results in just "Charging")

 

After not finding any suitable solutions myself, I went with a Anker PowerPort with 4x USB-A connections and 1x USB-C connection (and currently wanting for some USB-C to USB-C cables to arrive to complete my work setup. (for home, still looking for a decent brand USB-C to USB-C cable that is 2m or longer).
