Cheap wireless charging pad for verizon LG G2?

Can anyone confirm a cheap wireless charging pad for the Verizon g2? I know its set up for wireless charging but I was wondering if there is a cheap dock or pad on eBay that someone can confirm is working.
Thanks

I got a Yes Digi Qi charger from Amazon (link). It works just fine with my G2. The first time I put it on it kept connecting/disconnecting the power rapidly, until I realized it has to sit up just a tad above being centered. I haven't had any problems since.
I haven't received my case yet (Incipio DualPro), so I don't know if it will work with it. I have, however, gotten it to charge through a stack of about 20 sheets of printer paper so I'm sure it'll be fine with a case.
Update: Just got my case yesterday. I can happily report that the charger works with the case. Yay!

Thanks! I will be receiving this as a gift. Hopefully it works...

Just received two of those ... they work great !
The LED is very good to tell you if the link is good. Easy to locate the good spot.
Charge pretty quick (VZW LG G2, Nexus 7 all with covers).

Nokia DT-900 Half-off
The Nokia DT-900 is currently half-off on att.com, if anyone's interested.
http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/accessories/chargers/sku6290260.html#fbid=Qec_2FFDzlV

The Nokia's look like they are small and thick. I'd like to see some pics of the Nokia with a G2.
The Lerway looks similar to my Samsung model except it lacks the LED, which I can do without. I'd spend $20 on a Qi Charger. Can't see spending $50+ though.
DERP!
Just watched a Youtube video and realized the Nokia DT-900 Qi Charger uses a stupid barrel plug for power. FAIL. Instant fail. I travel and love being able to take 1 wall adapter, 1 MicroUSB cable, and my Qi Charging plate and it lets me Qi Charge, or charge my headphones, or tablet, controllers, etc.
Not interested in a Qi Charger that requires its own power supply. I'd rather do the LerWay or try to find another Samsung for $24 (what I paid for mine).

That's pretty cool! Let us know if the 2.1A output will achieve fast charge. I just got a power bank and even with the 2A output it slow charges.

I don't think you're getting a fast charge with Qi. I think the transfer rate is super slow which is a limitation of the current technology.

...not a charging pad
This is a receiver that is charged from a charging pad, not a charging pad itself. Not sure if that was clear....

Does that charge as fast as a normal charger? I think wireless charging would be nice (though not really necessary) so if it works just as fast or faster i might get one but if not then i dont see the benefit for myself. Thanks

Whoops, sorry I took so long to respond. It's definitely slower than the wired charger that came with the G2. But on the other hand, I'm in and out of my office throughout the day, so it's nice to just pop it on when I'm in and let it sip some juice. It's usually full before noon, even with me putting it on and off. I don't charge it overnight so it gets down to about 30-40% depending on my use the rest of the previous day.

External Batteries for Note 5

Hi guys,
So I am almost 100% certain that I'm going to be getting the Note 5, which as we all know comes with a 3,000 mAh battery (which cannot be removed), I'm thinking that I'm going to need to keep a power bank on me when I'm traveling. The power bank that I had for my Note 4 (which worked quite well) was from TechMatte. I got it on amazon about a year ago, and it's still going strong.
Do you guys think that it will still work well for the Note 5? I think that it will still work fine, but I'm wondering which one you guys use-- perhaps I might upgrade if a good priced one is mentioned?
Thanks!!

I use a limefuel Been using it for several months now. It works great. They did have a problem with bad batch where the USB ports would either come lose or no longer work, but since there was a 1 year warranty I got a free replacement

Here are 2 with Quick charge 2.0.

No doubt limefuel works great.:good::good:

I too have that one. great value for the price. They are also offering quick charge ones-- my wife uses it on her s6.

External Battery Power Bank is the right solution as the Note 5 has non-removable 3000mAh battery that is even less than its predecessor.!

Anyone could do a comparison review of the two? Is Aukey battery a new released one? I had the CHOETECH one. It's a pretty high quality PowerBank good for both Samsung and Apple users, because its fast charging port is compatible with iOS devices (at fast rate 2.1Amps max).

I have seen the comparison on one of third party website between these two power banks. It seems like un-biased but I am not much sure about it: http://www.lonpower.com/aukeys-powe...neration-quick-charge-2-0-based-power-bank-2/

I do to.

I just received my Aukey 10000mah model# pb-t4. And fast charging works. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B011U0AY22/ref=ya_aw_oh_pii?ie=UTF8&psc=1

i read somewhere that Quick Charging does wear the battery quicker. ever since i read that, i've avoided Quick Charging my S6e unless i really needed the juice quickly. i just don't want to own a brick sooner than later if true, especially since we cant replace the battery. on my S6e, it fully charges in 1hr 12min with the Adaptive charger while with a regular 2.4A charger, it fully charges in 1hr 20min. i haven't checked my Note 5 Duos yet. but i always have 2 power banks with me in my camera bag anyway whenever i'm carrying it which is almost always.
i've got several branded power banks including those from Anker and Aukey, but the only one that has held up the longest and still performs really well is my Mophie. it just doesn't have as large a capacity as my other power banks.

Has anyone found an external battery that can be CHARGED with the quick charge tech. I know there are ones that will charge a phone real fast, but I want to charge the battery real fast.

Looking for a good fast wireless charger at a GREAT price!

Hello guys,
Can you please suggest a good reliable wireless fast charger pad for my Note 5?
Thanks!

Check out @polish_pat 's thread. It's a $20 wireless charging pad from Amazon. Got one myself and it works like a charm.
One caveat, however, is that I noticed the "sweet spot" for this charger is much smaller that with others I've had. I'm not sure if this is a side-effect of the fast charging, or poor design. Regardless, it's now a staple on my desk.

Agreed^^^

Just order one of these for $10(with code) from Amazon. Looks like it has very good reviews. We will see...

The best one I have found is the Choetech fast wireless charger. Good for by the bed since the charging light dims in the dark. Also connects every time. I also have the Yootech and it gets frustrating trying to find the sweet spot.

Well they are Genuine Samsung Fast Wireless charger. They perform as well or as bad as the one that is sold for $50 with no charger. It does not overheat or at least not yet. Jajaja! I will keep you posted.

This is the one I have. http://amzn.to/1pkVbTp
It works really well, full speed too if you use it with the charger that came with your note.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B015XF17VM/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1 this is the one i just purchased. It was a shot in the dark because it was so cheap but honest i was very impressed. It worked perfectly! I am using the stock wire and wall charger but it definitely provides wireless fast charging for only 13 bucks. It does like to be in a particular spot but who cares!?!? For the price you cant go wrong.

I have it sitting on my desk right now, and through a case it is charging via fast charge.
As long as you have it plugged into a fast charge capable adapter it will fast charge.

@shhuhs Mine works great so far. Cheap, steady and fast! I think you can contact Choetech to ask for a replacement.

I recently bought this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B018QW09Z4/
It has a huge sweet spot, supports wireless fast charge, comes with a QC 2.0 wall adapter & cable, and only costs $19.95.

They are indeed fast chargers. I bought the BOGO fast wireless charger and a fast wireless charging stand for $105.82 after taxes and 30% discount. Good deal for genuine charges that come with fast wall chargers as well. Also, avoided shipping by spending >$50.

You can get the same promo on fast wireless chargers. IMO two fast wireless chargers for $52 is a much better deal.

I didn't find the bogo deal for the fast chargers until after I bought the regular ones. Also the 30% off coupon supposedly doesn't work for anything over $49.99.

Dang it! It looks like they don't have the fast chargers as part of the promo anymore either. I can't find them on the site.

OH well, i plan on using it to charge overnight on my night stand anyway so it doesn't need to be fast. If i need fast charge i'll just plug it in.

I have the fast charge pad and it's awesome (not the stand one).
Anyone else notice the different animations you get when you plug in at the bottom or place on the round wireless charger? Plug in at bottom you get a little animation of electricity flowing up briefly. Place on the wireless you get a similar thing but it's a circular animation from center outwards.

They both were showing they were valid until 3/19. I have a feeling the fast charge probably ran out of stock since they still have them, but link you to buy them elsewhere online or in store.

The wireless chargers are back ordered, I originally pre ordered one before I got the phone. And they sent me a email saying it was back ordered then I went ahead and did this deal also since my wife needed one. And the same a day later got a back ordered email.

I missed out on the deal too thinking a had a couple days left to order it. In my ignorance, I didn't think they would sell out so quickly. I spoke to Samsung via live chat and they tried to tell me the promo ended on 3/17. However, I explained that I saw it said 3/19 and she asked me to call customer service to see if they could help me out. I sat on hold for 58 minutes before finally hanging up to go to a meeting at work. Now I'm wondering if it's worth grabbing two of the non-fast chargers for $35 after 30% coupon before the sale ends today. However, the reviews of this non-fast pad make it seem unreliable. I currently use my old Samsung S4 wireless pad now when I sleep with no issues.

Not all QI fast chargers working with N8

Have a variety of fast QI chargers that all works well with my N5, even with cases (think and thick cases).
Use the same chargers with the N8 and it seems to be a hit or miss, especially with cases. Some work and some do not.
Anyone else experiencing this?

I have the Samsung Quick Charging Stand and a Spigen triple coil qi charger that's a rip of the Tylt Vu. They all work well but the spigen doesn't quick charge.

Chotetch fast charger works, confirmed because I have one as well as two convertibles from Sammy.
The choetech will charge the phone through the Sammy military grade case (whereas the Sammy one wont).

Triple coil standing Aukey works just fine, even with a case.

I may have jumped the gun on this. I use an Anker 40w 5 port charger to feed the Seneo, as I also have a Gear S3 and an iPad that I charge at night. My Samsung charger is in a desk drawer somewhere.
I'll dig it out and hook the Seneo up to it to see what happens.

I went into a Verizon store and my Note 8 worked on their last Gen wireless charger with no problem. I believe I purchased my chargers on ebay so my conclusion is they must not be official changers and are knock offs. They look exactly like the official chargers down to the label on the bottom. They obvious knock offs have a slightly different label. The "some people" I was referring to were people who had the same experience as me based on researching this problem. Learned my lesson, saving a couple of bucks isn't worth it in the end.

I have two of the original Samsung fast charge pads (an American one and a Korean one) and they both work on my Korean Note 8 through its slim case.

Think thats my problem. I have a whole bunch of aftermarket QI Fast Chargers. Some seem to work better than others. But they all Work Well with my N5.

Question about these wireless chargers, if I don't use a Quick Charger adapter, and instead plug it into the back of my monitor for power, will it just slow charge it wirelessly? Or will that not be enough power for it to wireless charge altogether?
