Samsung Power Usb Fast?

There is an important update on the USB chargers in the box with the  machine.  The sheet actually states 2A 5v or higher is recommended for charging the Equinox.

In the manual minelab say 5.0v 1a

Can wecharge the nox with samsung fast charging Phone 5.0v 2.0 a ?

Can't see why not. The chargers full capacity is 2 amps. The load / battery and charging circuit determines the charging rate and is regulated. The charger cannot force more current than what the load determines.

I have a 2A 5V USB charger that works perfectly with the Equinox.  I also have a 1A USB 12V car charger that should also work just fine, although with 1A, it should take twice as long to charge, so about 8 hours to a full charge versus the 4 hours from the 2A wall charger.

Computer USB plugs only supply about 0.5A.  So from your computer or laptop, it might take around 16 hours to a full charge.  Minelab says 0.5A is OK, it just will take longer to charge.

Just get yourself a decent quality 2A USB wall charger and you should be in business.
