    Scan? I dont know anywhere bricks and mortar that would have a 2.5. Why the high amperage?

    Satnav or External drive ?
    Many PC/Laptop sockets are limited to 500 or even 300 mA

    RS components maybe? There's a World USB Travel Adaptor Charger listed as having a 2.5A current rating...

    Watch that, you'll seriously shorten the lifespan of the battery if you charge it faster than spec and max the CPU/GPU at the same time.
