Get whichever you want, but the 1000mAh charger will charge your phone quicker. The original charger is 1000mAh.

I've tried some generic 1000 mAh charger and an htc one and they all charge as if they were 500 mAh (i.e. same as via usb).

It looks like the charger must have some characteristic for the liquid to accept full power.

A blackberry 700 mAh charger works at full power instead.

The htc tattoo didn't have this problem/feature.

1000mAh (1.0A) is a LOT of current and most low quality chargers (don´t know how good is HTC´s) despite saying they provide, they won´t. Lots of times they can provide a *peak* of 1.0A, nothing more than that.

Make no mistakes, Liquid´s also doesn´t provide 1.0A and that´s why it takes 3.30h to do a full charge even turned off. If a battery has 1350mAh and the charger provides stable 1000mAh than it had to charge the battery in less than 1.30h.

If a full charge takes 3.30h, Liquid´s charger provides <400mAh.

true, but it's also true that the same cheap 1000 mAh charger charged the tattoo about two times faster than usb, whille the liquid with same charger charges as slow as usb.

thus, there must be some differences in how the liquid charging works, i.e. it is more "picky" with chargers than tattoo, which may be a good thing or not...
