Does this work?

It works. I have it. It may not stop charging at 100% though. Mine keeps blinking like it's charging even at full and my phone gets hot. Not sure if defect or what

The LG ones (http://www.amazon.com/LG-WCP-700-Portable-Office-Charging/dp/B005DMBSVA) work great, and I've got an Energizer one that works perfectly as well.

I've been using this LG charger with my Nexus 4 since January and it has been flawless. Works great with my Nexus 7 as well. Highly recommend it.

I'm looking to buy the DT-910 as it props the device upright so I can use the nexus as bedroom clock. The other wireless charging thread has a couple of users that say it works well. There is also a link to cheap dt-900 (similar to what you linked) by you need to buy 3 to get it cheap and it's in the US. I'm UK based so no use to me.

just a question: the 900/910 stops charging when reach 100%?

I bought this Kookpad wireless charger off Amazon and had it waiting when my phone arrived on Monday. You can get it in white or black. It is very placement insensitive. I ordered a 2nd one last night so I could have one at the office.

Read through the Amazon reviews. Some people didn't like the buzzer on it, but most people found it charged well.

The quality isn't great though. Mine worked for about 6 months, then died. I got another one and that seems to be working, but only time will tell.

Which one charges the fastest if price isn't an issue? I would like to have at least one that's fast.

When I got my N5, I used a HP Touchpad AC charger (up to 2.0 Amp output), this USB current measuring device http://dx.com/p/usb-av-usb-power-current-voltage-tester-translucent-blue-silver-235090, and then measured the input current to my Note 2, Nexus 5, and then Koolpad (linked on my previous post) with my Nexus 5 charging on it. The battery was about 55% charged so we were definitely in the constant current section of the battery charge (maximum current). The results were.
Note 2 Input current = 1.28A
Nexus 5 Input current = 1.08A
Koolpad (charging Nexus 5) Input current = 1.09A
The tranfser of power between the Qi charger and N5 isn't 100% efficient so the current into the N5 is something less than 1.09A. Guessing efficiency is 70-90% so that would mean 700mA to 900mA (0.7A - 0.9A) into the N5. I have only had the phone since Monday, but the charging time seems to be very similar between using a cord and the Koolpad Qi charger.
That is the only Qi charger I have tested so far. I don't know how others compare. While researching Qi chargers, I had read some people post that the Nokia DT-900 charged on the slower side..... no data to back that up.

Do these alle work fine with cases?

What about the samsung qi charger ?

I've order the nokia dt-900, when will arrive i will make test of time charge, temperature.
Anyway the wirless charger is not 100% efficient...if you search for a faster charge, use a 2,3a USB charger. (Remind the lion battery, for safe and longevity, have to be charge at Max the mah of the battery it self. So a 1000mah battery, Max 1a charger)

I got the Zens wireless charger from Shop Android. When it came I fell in love with the design and ordered 2 more for a total of 3 to have around the house. BIggest mistake ever. I also have the old Zens charger and the samsung S4 charger and the new zens is the only one that gets super hot. Don't know why but when I take the phone off its on fire. Sucks too because now I have 3 of these.

There's definitely some quality control issues with the Nokia chargers, but I can't imagine them saying you'd have to buy another. Their service is outstanding (experienced with multiple defective 920s) and I can't imagine they'd just go tell you to kick rocks.

Well, it was the equivalent. I had to pay $15 to ship it there (I had to use UPS, I couldn't just use a $5 flat rate box). then $10 for them to look at it, then free shipping on the way back. That's $25. I can buy another charger for that money.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that I didn't actually "buy" the charger. It just came with my 920 from att. That was their reasoning behind me paying shipping charges.

Wireless Charging

Hello all,
Does anyone have this wireless charger -> http://www.amazon.com/Lerway-Wireless-Power-Charger-Lumia920/dp/B00E9MUNWU/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
Just want to know how it works with the Nexus 5. It is at a pretty good price and decently rated as a 4 starred device on Amazon.

I have not tried that one but I bought this one recently and have excellent results. It charges with a case on so not bad at all for $10 total shipped with prime account. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00FALFNQA/ref=mp_s_a_1_50?qid=1383963766&sr=8-50&pi=SX200

AT&T was running a deal a few days ago where you get 25% off if you buy 3 accessories. I bought 3 of the Nokia wireless chargers for around $60. Might check and see if they still have that deal going.

I use this one (broke it down and mounted in my car dock) with my N7 LTE ... Charges faster (measuring amps) than wired connections. Just grabbed one for my N5.

Any chance you could post pictures of that? I'm kinda tempted to buy a cheapy Qi charger and try to rig it up to my iMagnet dash mount somehow... but i'm not sure exactly how big the whole setup is and if it would be do-able.

sure thing.... I've been meaning to take some pictures of it anyway... it's amazing what you can do with a little bit of foam double sided sticky tape. Keep in mind this is for an N7 tablet so it has a bit bigger footprint than a phone car mount.
With that said, I hope someone (like google) does a QI car charger mount. I'm already missing my gnex pogo mount.

I know. More concerned about how exactly these things are usually configured prior to being slapped in a nice square plastic case to be plopped on a desk/dresser/etc... to see if doing what i'm thinking about is even possible. If they come small enough, i might be able to get it to work. If not, i might still be able to rig something up somehow.

Yes, though I didn't use it, this one seems really cheap. But for me, a reasonable priced product means quality to me. I would highly recommend this one, "RAVPower Qi-Enabled Wireless Charger". It's really light and a great gadget to charge my lumia 920 in a wireless way. They're also compatible with many models. You can check it here from its amazon page, simply search RavPower wireless charger.

That's kind of what I thought until I read an article online the other day that talked about how most Qi chargers are made in China for less than $2. After reading that I told my self I am not paying over $20 for a Qi charger and found one for $10 shipped on Amazon. Its been awesome and I can't find any flaws with it.

-Yeah, I didn't notice the 1A detail when I bought it, but that is kinda funny. I know it's using 1.5A because I hooked it up to my Kill-a-watt and that's what it was reading- 7.5W, 5V, 1.5A. So that is kind of odd, but cool.
-I haven't tested it from 0-100, but from 2%-80%, it took right at 1hr, 15 minutes.

Searching for dual qi wireless charging pad

First I thought to buy the Google one, but it just to small, and I need 2, for nexus 5 & 7, then I thought, why not to kill 2 rabbits, with 1 bullet, and buy a dual charger, the ZENS looks good, and big, so tablet not look out of place, any other recommendations?

You are not seriously considering buying that dual Zens charger for $100+? That is WAY TOO overprised. I just recently reviewed a single pad one from ravpower (search through a link in my sig) for $35 which you can just take side-by-side to make a dual one for much cheaper, and also will publish another review of DX.com small qi charger (the size of glass coaster) for $20, so it's even cheaper. Both were tested to work great with Nexus 7, and in my opinion a better alternative. Plus think about it, an individual qi charging pad (beside being cheaper), will guarantee 1A of charging current. With a dual one, I seriously doubt you will get evenly distributed 2A current split into 1A feeds, so you will end up with $100 big pad, slower charging, and no flexibility for a small traveling companion.
In my opinion, if your budget is $100, just buy 2x single pads similar to ravpower (you can find it on amazon or ebay from other sellers even cheaper, probably under $30), and tape them together for one pad that will cost you < $60.

I contacted ZENS, and they told me that, it do work with nexus 5 & 7 at the same time, I don't know the tech specs, so I'm waiting for reply, from them.
Also, my problem is the size if current single pads, and I don't need a travel solution, just good charger for home use only, they just too small, not in terms of, that they not work, but it not looks good with tablet, as they made for smartphones, the ZENS dual, at least have size, also, it not like those cheap Chinese one, it has multiple coils, and that important to know when talking about cost, also, I don't care to spent 100$ on it, because more and more devices out, with "qi", so it will be used with other devices, It's like laser printers, they cost more than inkjet, but they print and print more with one toner, so if you buy something, that will be used for long time, just buy the best you can,or at least with a good value for long time. As for the charger, I think it has 2-3A input, but has some circuit, that allow only 1A for each device...but not sure about it

New AC adapter & USB cable

My USB cable charger cord that came with my P-600 is starting to loosen up. You know, when you have to adjust out so it's in the slot just right in order for it to charge. I know that you can't use just any AC adapter combined with just any USB cord to get the power needed to charge a tablet fast and efficiently. Are there any recommendations out there for a new AC adapter and/or USB cord that has been proven to work well with this tablet? (Besides buying a replacement from Samsung.)
Thanks.

Cant recommend anything specific but remember the note 10.1 2014 uses a 5.3 v charger (and not a 5v charger like most smartphones)

Right. I think most smartphone chargers won't even be able to charge a tablet at all because a tablet, any tablet, needs more power (volts) to charge it effectively. I've tried using my Galaxy S3 charger to charge my Note 10.1 just to see if it would work and it shows the charging icon with a line through it (doesn't charge at all).

Any charger will work, but the higher-wattage ones will charge faster. Samsung ones are available all over the place AMZN/FLEABAY/A4C/etc. for cheap (<$10).

My original charger and a supposed duplicate purchased later seem to be charging slower as time goes by. Just as with my last purchase have read a good bit. But I too need advice on the best safe but fast charger and cable. I'm seriously considering the above recommendation for the Anker 40w (8A) 5 port charger. At most I charge only two devices at one time and usually only one. But if this is solid and reliable, the extra ports are ok. Before ordering, several questions:
- I notice the write up states two ports have the IQ charging - is this the case and are they labeled?
- I'd be charging my LG G3 with this too - any issues doing this?
- Lastly, seems cable length/gauge can affect charging speed, right? Which cables are folks having best experience with? I'm considering: http://www.amazon.com/Anker-Premium...ref=lh_ni_t?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A294P4X9EWVXLJ. I prefer long cables if possible...
Bottom line, want a solid charger and cables for my Note 10.1 2014 Edition (and LG G3 if possible) that I won't have to replace in 6-12 months. If there's a two-port of same top quality, let me know too!
Thanks in advance!!

Went ahead and ordered the Anker charger and instead, am trying the http://www.amazon.com/Hi-mobiler-Go...8252875&sr=8-2&keywords=28/24+micro+usb+cable. See it's 28/24AWG hopefully will do the trick...only worried about the gold plating (ones tried before from Amazon seemed to get "lose" their prongs and slip out of my tablet's charging slot). Not sure if it's the gold being softer or ?
In any case, do let me know if anyone thinks the charger would create any issues if used on my LG G3!

All 5 ports are IQ.Charges a Note 10.1 2014, S4, Note 3, Z blue tooth headset and a LG tablet all at the same time and all quickly and fully. Great charger.

I found an issue with the Anker and one of the half a dozen devices of all kind I charged with it.
The touchscreen of my Huawei Tablet acts weird when connected to the Anker. This is a not uncommon thing, but first time i encountered it. And found the reason.
The Anker emits some weak 80v AC current on the GND line. Tested with another brand name charger(One for All, the universal remote maker). That one carried 20 Volts. My previous fav charger also emits AC, like with the Anker, the Texture of the tablet's aluminium case felt rougher during charging, when softly brushing over it with a finger tip. Only there were no touch troubles. Which can be avoided by touching the metal frame with your thumb during tapping the screen.

Is there any concern with this potentially causing damage, or just an inconvenience if plugged in while using the device (if one's unit was emitting that current)?
In my case, I haven't noticed this with either my Note 10.1 or LG G3. My guess is if it hasn't happened after a month or two, I don't need to be overly
concerned - the unit is functioning properly?
Personally, overall been happy with the Anker and haven't noticed any issues...
Thanks!

I had no damage so far, and the Note is happy with the Anker. And it seems that many or most chargers seem affected, like at least three of mine. Probably Samsung's too. Connect a multimeter to Usb 5v ground(the metal shield of the plugs seems to be griunded, though I tested with the plug for my Huawei tablet. Connect the meter's ground probe to something appropiate, like central heating, water pipe or the third line of the mains, which should be "protective ground" or something.
The current only produces a slightly bitter taste on the tongue, near nothing, but it's amazing how the feel of a metal surface changes.

Powerful Wireless charger that works with rugged cases?

Hey guys, I had a circle Qi chinese brand charger that used to work with my slim case, now I got a thicker one and the wireless charger simply couldn't handle it, does anyone here knows a good powerful charger that works with thick cases for the G3? (link from eBay would be appreciated)
thanks

anyone?

In general, I think Qi chargers will only bridge about 5 to 7mm, and I don't think there are any more powerful versions. There are a few (Nokia, Tilt Vu, some others) that use three coils, rather than only one, but I think this just increases the size of the sweet spot, not the power.

That is 100% correct, the qi standard is changing so that it can be ~1in away but that won't be until at least next year from what I have read.
