Standard Charger Voltage

Hey guys,

I've had my Fascinate for about 4 months now and absolutely love it. The only thing is that I'm somewhat of a cheapskate and refuse to buy a charger at an officially licensed Verizon store.

While most of the chargers I purchase via Amazon or eBay work, they don't always seem to charge in a timely manner. Anyone know the standard charger voltage? I'm assuming if I can find a charger with the absolute correct voltage, it'll charge much faster. Thanks in advance!

Are you talking about wall or car charger?

For wall charger:
Input = 100-240V ~50-60Hz 0.15A
Output = 5.0V = 0.7A

For car charger:
I found this is the best.
Amazon.com: Motorola SPN5400 Rapid Vehicle Power Adapter for Motorola Droid A855: Cell Phones & Accessories
 
Charges using a standard USB cable, from a standard port, so 5V output. Those little cigarette lighters with the USB plugs charge it fine.

In fact, any COTS USB charger will work.
