USB cables which charge at 2000mA+

I've got a couple of mains USB phone chargers which I tested putting out 2100mA and charged my phones lickity split as you'd expect. The stock USB cables are too short though, I need a couple of 2m USB to microUSB cables, so I bought a pair off ebay. Total junk! The "quality" ones I bought charge at only 300mA and 8 hours on mains still doesn't fully charge the battery.

Can anyone point me to some bargain 2000mA (or greater) rated USB to mircoUSB cables?

    I bought prior to this deal (unfortunately), but they are quality cables. You should find that the 2 metre cable (maybe not the 3) will charge at the full 2 Amp rate, but it depends on your charger's voltage whilst current is being drawn. Some run bang on 5V or slightly below, some as high a 5.5V, and the latter can help with the consequent losses involved in using longer - or shorter, thinner and nastier - cables.
