Hello
As a nexus 5 owner with a Nexus Wireless charger on CD mount in my car I am wondering I the LG G3 has the ability to be held up by the nexus wireless charger or the Air dock?
Does anyone have a nexus charger and is will to test for me. I need a drop and go solution for my car I can't go back to plugging in USB cables again.

The Nexus charger uses magnets in the charger that match up with magnets in the phone to hold the phone in place. The G3 Qi back doesn't have the corresponding magnets. So no, it wouldn't hold the G3 in place. Don't know about the air dock.

Anyone find one that works well? I got a Cellet retractable micro use charger last week, and it charges my Motorola Electrify M just fine as well as my Gen 1 N7. No dice on the N7 FHD.
Ideas?

hii well as if you are looking for a car charger you can check out the huge collection of car charger for N7 at Fommy
they have multiple of variety
So just check out once may be you guys get something you have been looking for
Thanks..!!
I just got one of the sea few day ago:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B8M4IMK/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It has dual USB ports. One is marked Android the other Apple. The apple port if specifically designed for apple devices (iPhone 5, iPad).
Individually each port can do about 2 amps, or 3.6 amps total if both are being used. The Apple port will charger other devices slowly with standard Data sync cables or full speed with a charging only cable (no data).
Basically with a Charging only cable you could charge two device, one at about 2.1 amps max and the other at about 1.5 amps max (3.6 total amps).
I have two dedicated charging only cables coming that I plan to keep with this car charger so I can charge my phone and tablets on to go.
I tried my Nexus 2013 in my dual Sprint car charger that I got from amazon (Technocel MV9MCDUO-SP OEM Sprint Car Charger - Black with USB Port) and I'm getting a really good charge for my Nexus.
I even tested my phone charging in it's USB port while the Nexus was charging on the main cord and both seemed to cahrge jsut fine.
If I just charge my Motorola Photon on the main cord it charges faster than any AC adapter or car charger I've ever used.
I highly recommend it.
I can't post links yet but its $6 on Amazon.. search for... Technocel MV9MCDUO-SP OEM Sprint Car Charger - Black with USB Port
Fommy says its compatibale for the Nexus 7 2013 too but it's $19.95 there.
(Sprint® (OEM) Micro USB Vehicle Power Charger PLUS for Google New Nexus 7
SKU: 89356
Price: $ 19.95)
HTH.
Anyone had any success using a wireless charger in the car?

I suppose that would work, a 2 amp or 1 amp car charger should power most QI chargers.
Not sure I see the point though, I see two issues:
1. Wireless charging is less efficient and slower (better suited for the desk or night stand).
2. There's a good change the device will move around while driving and not charge if the coils are not aligned properly.
You could try a modify a car mount to hold a wireless charger, but you still would have the slower charging issue, withc may not really be an issue for some.
I have however seen a car mount that holds the phone and has a opening to hold a round QI charger, but wouldn't work for the N7. See here:

What I'm thinking is, taking the back of a slide-in type cover and hardwiring the wireless charger behind it. A slide in type cover should minimize any movement/alignment issues.
Then affixing the entire assembly over my existing NAV screen in the dash with the wireless charger hardwired to the car.
Then, I can slide in/slide out the Nexus as desired, and not have to worry about fiddling around with the Micro USB connector.
I'm not concerned about charging efficiency, more about maintaining power. A 2A charger at 60% efficiency should provide me the 1.35A that the Nexus 7 needs. When needed I can remove it and fully charge it.
I have done some google searches and came up empty, but i figured i would ask. I am trying to find out if there are any Qi pads that have a power input as well as an output as to connect a second Qi pad or a charger direct from another device. Has anyone seen anything like this?
I would love to be able to cascade 2 Qi pads as well as a non wireless charge enabled device and only have 1 line go back to my outlet. I don't see why this would not be possible.

No such thing.
Maybe just try this.

The only charger that I've seen and do own is a Lugulake that will charge two devices.
The RAVpower charging pad Qi enabled can charge two devices at once. Plus you can charge a phone in your pocket https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFPII0dKyC4&feature=youtube_gdata_player

I have the energizer 3 position charging pad. Has 2 qi chargers built in for 2 phones and a usb port on the side. I've used all 3 at once. Works fine for me.

Take a closer look at the pictures.
I have the latest nexus Qi charging pad along with this USB car charger
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0088U4YAG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
its dual port and has one for apple and the other for non apple phones.
the non apple port has 4.2amps output max.
it charges my Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 easily and fast and shows as AC charging.
the first few weeks i was able to use this car charger with the Nexus Qi charging pad no problem but now it doesnt work and the charging pad shows a RED LIGHT which means its not getting enough amps.
when I plug that car charger directly to the Nexus 5 and 7 it still charges as AC easily and fast no problem so it boggles my mind why it just stopped working with the charging pad.
What USB charger are you guys using that is still working with no issues with the charging pad?
Anyone?
I don't use it regularly with the wireless charger but I have tested it and it worked in the past...
http://www.amazon.com/Anker®-Dual-P..._18?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1406656736&sr=1-18
For some reason the black model is no longer available from Anker, so it's very expensive compared to the white... hopefully they get it back in stock.
Charging pads only need around 0.7 or 0.8A since they only output 0.5A so you don't need anything special for them.

generally true, but the nexus one is picky
Is this asking too much of a nexus 5 accessory? Is it out there, somewhere? I like my car's air dock, I like my home's qi stand, so I'd like to know is there a best of both worlds?
Not quite sure what you are asking about here, but I have 2 Nexus Qi chargers, one for home and one for my car. I use the LG QuickCover for Nexus 5 that will stick to the magnets of the charger without a phone in it. The charger in my car is mounted at an angle on my dash so I can use it for sat-nav. Perfect setup in my view.
My Verizon Nexus 7 has a bad usb port so I can only charge it with a wireless charger and want to set it up in my car to control sound and the Torque APP but I always want to move it to any of my 3 cars and one is a Jeep Wrangler so I need to remove it when I am not driving. I have seen a few permanent wireless installs for the Nexus 7 but I just want to buy 3 wireless charging mounts for my cars and cannot find one anywhere. I bought the AirDock but that does not work because it will not hold the Nexus 7 very well.
Anyone have any ideas? I cannot be the only one..

you can purchase qi charging coils or remove them from a wireless charger and make your own.
I bought one of these. It comes with a steel ring that I needed to super glue to the back of my Nexus 7 (glue that came with it wasn't strong enough)
