How much power is my pc giving to my tablet?

[Titanmaster970]

)Sorry if I put this in the wrong category) So whenever I charge my tablet with a wall adapter, it barely charges, where it will go up 3% in 1 hour. Whenever I plug it into my pc, it charges super fast. I am wondering, how much power is my pc giving to my tablet? It is not charging well on the wall because the adapter doesn't put out enough power.

You can install an application called accubattery that will monitor the chargerate (mA) at what the tablet is charging. If you are not using the original charger of the tablet it could very well be that the charger is out of spec and cannot feed it enough.

Ampere is another app that does exactly what you're asking. But, I'd like to add that if you look at the underside of your wall charger, it'll have a line that says "Output 5v (should be 5), followed by the amperage, say 500mAh. If it actually says 500mAh, then it's useless except for lower current devices. Todays phones and tables draw much more current than they used to. 2.1A is now pretty much the standard for modern chargers, and I wouldn't recommend using a charger rated at less than 1A.

If the charger puts out a good current, then you probably need a new USB cable (unless it's the same one you use to plug into the computer).
