Struggling to find a replacement charger from a reputable site - any ideas? I found one on ebay for £1.50 with no reviews so I am sceptical and would rather not set the house on fire!
Re the iphone - I do not want to pay Apple £25 so am looking for an alternative which is of equivalent quality and safety standards

For your android , any micro USB charger of suitable quality will work ..
Very quick example : https://www.amazon.co.uk/HUAWEI-Ascend-Y330-Universal-Charger/dp/B00TVAXM4G
As for the iphone charger, personaly I would stick to Apple, but many 3rd parties are available that shouldnt burn down your house ..

Doesn't need anything special. Just a standard 1 AMP output USB charger and USB to micro USB lead(or an all in one). Just don't buy the cheapest of the cheap
For iPhone/iPad 2 AMP. You can use the same wall charger, but different leads.

So you can have a single wall plug and attach the appropriate lead and/or adapter.0 -
I have a Y330, it charges from any USB Source.
As long as you buy from a reputable source in the UK then you will be fine.
It's only fake stuff direct from china that's a real risk.Changing the world, one sarcastic comment at a time.0 -
