$5.99 + FSSS Anker® 15W 3.1A Simultaneous Dual-Port Car Charger (New Version)
I was searching for car chargers and found this charger from Anker. What was appealing to me about this charger is the output of 3.1A. Wow! Most chargers I found only outputs between 1.0 - 1.5A so this will charge your device in half the time. Now before anyone starts saying the amp output will damage your device, wrong. Devices these days have an internal regulator that prevents this from happening.
Out of 67 reviews, it has a 4.5 rating, 50 being 5 stars and 4 being 1 stars. 2 of those 1 stars were buyers not being aware that for iPhones, iPads and iPods, you have to use your own cables that originally came with them. Those other 2 1 stars were DOA where and it looks like Anker customer service team took care of them right away.

The circuitry in your device should limit how much current it draws. If it needs 1A to charge, it will try and pull up to 1A. If the power source (car charger) is limited to 0.5A, the device will only be able to pull in 0.5A. There's no reason for your device to blow up because it's trying to draw 3.1A from this car charger. It will pull as much as it's designed to pull, assuming the source can drive it.
