    It seems like my 9900 is charging about 3x times faster in the cradle than via oem cigarette lighter usb charging.

    Is that normal?

    EDIT: my original post was unclrear and missing the words "cigarette lighter"

    If you mean a usb plugged into the pc yes makes sense. wall charging is the best.

    Doesn't matter. It really comes down to the charging capacity. Unless it is 2 Amps I would not use it.
    I highly recommend the following from duracell. 2.1 Amps.

    OK, so in other words the OEM cigarette lighter charger does not put out enough amps. 2 amps output capacity is desirable. Correct?

    Thanks!

    BTW: I just checked. My OEM cigarette lighter usb charger has a 500mA output. So it all totally makes sense now.

    Yes. I am not sure why. Perhaps they are too expensive. If you are a power user definately get a better charger. Be careful not to go for the advertised OEM blackberry premium charger. I got caught in a 2:1 deal that is really for an order BBOS phone and not the newer phones.
