P.S: I tried one of those usb sockets sold in flea markets ($2.) but it's as slow as the original usb posts inside the console… Edited November 28, 2018 by 2FAST4U Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See this thread. Already done by @27Sport on his 2015 Edge. Probably would work on a 2013. 8 hours ago, Nick Halstead said: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DGNQNLR/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 They have a photo of a Edge ST.

For Android phones, most would benefit from Quick Charge 2.0 or 3.0 which will charge even faster than the USB smart ports. There are also small sized sockets that will fit nearly flush.

I remember a while ago, someone posted a link on Ebay (not sure) for a 3.0 charger which fit flush into the lighter socket (was even able to close the small cover door) but I cannot find it anymore...
