I have a Lenovo P2 smartphone. It has a very large battery (5100mAh) which is charged very quickly when using the supplied charger (rated at up to 12V - 2A). This phone is sold in Germany and thus the charger supposedly meets all the safety requirements here (GS, TĆV Rheinland).
The phone does not have quick charge, but instead Mediatek Pump Express .
Now the interesting thing is that this charger can be bought cheaply on aliexpress (same model for different phone model from Lenovo called sc-10, mine is called sc-13 and looks the same except for the additional German markings like GS and TĆV).

Interesting with EU in the name for a charger with US/Chinese plug.
I donāt think the Chinese sellers pay too much attention to that kind of stuff.
I found another seller on Aliexpress selling the same model and here somebody wrote that it indeed charges the P2 just as fast as the stock charger.
EDIT: I just noticed that both sellers state that it isnāt available anymore.
EDIT2: Here is the actual EU-model, also not available anymore.

Aliexpress have a big sale, that means it is the right time to post review ideas for discounted stuff from them.

i have 93 items in my cart on aliexp and usually i buy them evaluating price fluctuation and EUR/USD forex variation.... beware that there are legit sale but many prices are also rised few days before and marked as sale when they just have the normal price, or less discount...sometimes the price is even few cents more than usual discounted price.
This is the lowest i found 38.96 on Aliexp General Sale
My 2 cents

This actually looks pretty cool, I wonder if the refresh rate is high enough to properly test ripple. HKJ will you be buying this to test?
