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.

High quality cheap wireless charger

Because the S6/S6E uses Qi and PMA you can use either mat. I just ordered 2 of the below ones for only $8.99 each.
With prices that low I thought I would share with you guys.

bestbuy give you free wireless charger when you preorder galaxy s6 but i ordered it on att.com
now i dont feel so bad !

I got the free charge pad from my Best Buy pre-order and I still bought this, the wireless battery bank is pretty much worth it for $8.99, let alone the charge pad as well. I'll use one near my bed and the other on my desk.

I came across an old review that said it put out 1A.

I wouldn't skimp out on a cheap wireless charger. being that wireless charging puts a bit of wear & tear on the battery i would opt for a better one that at least give you piece of mind. the problem with the cheap chargers is they can create unnecessary wasted energy that will create more heat on your device/battery. more heat = degrade battery faster.
here is one i would recommended that doesn't break the bank:
RAVPower Wireless Charging Pad: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00PY1YBA0/
outputs at 5v @ 1A.
it's $19 and great reviews. protect your investment and spend a few bucks more for a more reliable charger.

Did you even look at the link before posting? This isn't some off brand Chinese charger, it's the Duracell PMA charger that came or with the iPhone 4 this it's muh cheaper due to its age and not quality.

That's a great deal...thanks for the heads up....
I wonder if Qi or PMA is better for the S6 although it can support both....hmmm is one newer technology than the other? Or are we talking the same charging technology, but with two name tags like Coke and Pepsi?

Thanks for the heads up, this is a great deal for sure, especially with the spare battery pack. in for one.

yes, and it's discontinued which is why it's so cheap,. my local Radioshack had them for $8.
the Samsung will work with either charging technology, but Qi charging seems to be the winning "standard" for wireless charging, almost all newer phones are more likely to come with Qi compatibility rather than PMA. so while the PMA might work fine, chances are your $8.99 discontinued charger might not be compatible with your next phone. Nexus 6/5/4/7, Sony Xperia Z3V, Motorola, etc All use Qi. i would much rather spend $10 more and at least i know it will work with my future phones since i upgrade almost yearly..

IT WORKS!!! I'll test to see how long it takes to get to fully charged once I drop this bad boy down to 50%.

Well how well did it do? Does it get very hot after wirelessly charging for a while?

I bought two of these and just tested one out. Seems to work great and actually charged my phone faster than I thought it would. One huge drawback for me that I'm not sure is a problem with Qi is that it would not charge with my case on. I think PMA requires the magnet portion to catch in order to work and that's going to be difficult with any case.

I fell asleep around 130am and the phone was at 43%, woke up for work at 450am and it was fully charged and not hot or even warm at all. I'm gonna have to do a real time drain and charge on my day off to see how long it officially takes.
Also, I have the Samsung slim case on it and it charged with it on.

Interesting. I have a couple of those Lumia Chargers still when the Lumia 900 released that I got for free? or cheap. Gotta dig them up somewhere but it would be cool to use those if they work. I remember charging the Nexus 4 on it was a nightmare cause you had it angle it EXACTLY right or it wouldn't charge.

Appreciate it - just ordered a white one.

thx for the post. ordered a wireless charger as well. for 10 bucks you cant go wrong.

Has anyone tried this charger?

My dog ate my charger and I'm looking to buy this one till I order a new one. Anybody have any thoughts on it?
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/insigni...lack/5690015.p?id=1219148349637&skuId=5690015

Seems like it would work but there are two things i would like to point out. First this is not a quick charge 2.0 charger so fast charge will not work with it, it will charge at normal rate. Also for myself i try to get wall chargers with removable cables just in case my pet eats thru it I can replace them easily and trust me i have gone through 4 cables in the last 4 months. That said i have had good experiences with ones bought from Ebay as well since the prices are far too tempting.

Is rapid charge the same as quick charge?

Usually not at all. What people claim as "rapid charge" is just a small increase in amperage (usually 2+ amps). By reference, USB 2.0 spec is 500mA.
Quickcharge 2.0 increases both the voltage and the amperage it can supply (is. even more wattage). The exact values are negotiated by the phone and what it draws - which is dependent on the current phase of charging.

Here's the exact same one we got with our note 4, OEM and everything! Plus it's way cheaper than the insignia one

That's the one I've been looking at as well but some of the comments claim it's fake. I know it's not a huge risk at 13 dollars but still kind of apprehensive.

This is the one I've been using and it's fantastic.

Can I use the fast charging brick with another cord and have fast charging?

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.

I have the Cheotech one. Its one of the few Quick Charging Batteries that actually registers as a fast charger. I have tested many of the ones available on Amazon. You wont see them on my channel since they dont pass the Fast Charger test. See my video on the Choetech one.

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

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.

Look for the refurbished OEM Fast Charging pad. Bought 2 of them from Amazon for around $20-$25. Both work flawlessly.

I bought a second. I have one at my desk, and use SideSync to manage my phone all day while easily charging without wires for a quick grab and go when leaving my desk. THIS IS WONDERFUL

You can get 2 for 20 on amazon.

but that's not a Fast Charger, its a normal wireless charger, the one OP mentioned is a Fast Wireless Charger.

It's weird that the Yootech fast wireless charging pad won't work at all with the Samsung charger that came with my Note5, but works perfectly using the Aukey 3 port charger with Quickcharge.

Ordered two of them. Such a killer deal and they work perfect!

Anyone tested this thing yet to confirm it works?
I ordered this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/35155034463...49&var=620580429407&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
and the damn thing charged at regular speeds. False advertising at its finest. Returned... don't want to buy this one if it's Chinese junk that isn't what it claims to be.
Use this chart to compare: http://phandroid.com/2015/09/25/samsung-fast-wireless-charging-comparison/
e.g. start charging your phone from xx% for 30 minutes and compare where you end up with where they ended up using the Samsung OEM fast charger.

Is the original N5 charger still working fine on this thing? I order 2 for next week and in the same situation as you.

I should have been patient bought one of these. I decided to get an OEM sapphire black, Fast Wireless charge pad. It cam included with a fast travel charger and cable. Not a bad deal for $69.99 But its ok, I cant return it now, but I know now that I have a cheaper solution, the moment it doesn't work. Nice find
