Qi Chargers That Work

[Arsenic17]

I just want a stand charger that works reliably. I don't get why any with 3 charging coils wouldn't work with no problems however since the charger area is larger.

It seems like I can't get any wireless charger to charge reliably at all. I've tried my DT-900 and sometimes with proper placement (as described in a few posts) I can get it to charge. But, it's usually slow and heats up ridiculously. I also ordered a 3 coil charger here http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01...0-20&m1k=vb_wp and it seemed to work once or twice. But last night I set it on the charger, light was green indicating it was charging. But, woke up this morning and it was at 22% (pretty much what it was when I put it on the charger. It's getting frustrating as this is one of the main features of the phone and I'm running out of patience. Does anyone have a stand charger that's actually working reliably?

Not sure your problem, but I am batting 1000 with my DT-900 and charging fine overnight so far.

The flat ones, like DT-900, seem to work fine. We're looking for a stand charger.

I get the DT900 for the most part now. I still don't understand why placement is so trivial with it though. Apparently it supposedly has multiple charging coils in it also, so that is supposed to help eliminate the need for such finicky placement. But, as mentioned above, I need a good stand charger. The Spigen one mentioned above would be fine, but I'm not into the whole reclined placement. You can't really see that when laying in bed.

Seems like the Spigen is just another variant of the Tylt.
You sure it does not do the restart thing after phone is charged??

Charges but has the cycle issue when fully charged.

Had to return it

Grabbed this one off Amazon and it works great. It's a flat design with 3 coils, so no issues with correct positioning and has been working flawlessly for a few days now.

Anyone know if the Tylt Wireless Charging Car Mount works? My Nokia one doesn't line up with the 950 XL.

Yes, got the red one the other day on their Cyber Monday special for $40. Awesome packaging. Works fantastic! Looks better than the Nokia.

I haven't noticed mine doing that.

I was trying to get one of the 3-coil QI wireless charger from amazon, but a lot of the reviews say that they don't last. Would it be best to wait for a genuine Lumia charger for the 950xl?

Nokia Fatboy pillow charger works for me, and also my Samsung EP-PG900.

So after a week or so of using the cheap $10 hockey puck Qi charger from amazon... I can say... It works GREAT!
Charges at a decent speed and it keeps it at 100% when it gets there.
I'm going to buy a couple more of these and try to outfit them in tables and stuff.

i have been using the Nokia Portable Wireless Charging Plate DC-50 that is still available direct from microsoft online store (in the US) for 29.99 with the 950XL dual sim and a wallet case that i bought from Amazon - had a coupon that reduced it to 5 dollars... its a little big but it does provide all round protection and its quite thick on the back side and still charges wirelessly...

I have also ordered the iOttie car mount Qi charger - have yet to try that as its sitting in my mailbox.. will comment back about that once i know if it works or not...

I bought the DC-50 a week ago and don't seem to have any success with it. I'm using it plugged into the wall. The charger and phone both get ridiculously hot. Then, the indicator light on the charger flashes and the lock screen switches on about once every 30 seconds, which I presume is from the heat. If I manually manage the situation and let them cool off, it will take about 4 hours to go from 20% to fully charger. But, that's no way to charge a phone. I've tried a number of different placements on the pad and haven't noticed any real differences.

Any suggestions before I return the charging pad?

A Samsung charger that I got for the Galaxy S4 that I no longer use will charge both my old 930 (the S4's replacement) and the new 950XL. The XL is a little long for the soapdish-style cradle, but if you let the foot of the phone ride on the raised edge of the cradle and push the top edge up against the slope at the other end, it charges just fine. The shock-absorbing cases on both phones don't push them off far enough to affect charging.

Also bought DC-50 from MS online store..and it works fine so far.

I ordered this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...ag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUwpUvbUpU3340388 the other day. It's absolutely perfect. Cycles the device properly, charges it fully and isn't fussy about placement. And best of all, it's SUPER nice!

Measured a 950 XL full charge on DT-900 today: 3:30 hr. 38?c temperature max. Perfect alignment plate / phone.

Tmr I will be getting the EasyCHEE? T900 and EasyCHEE? T300 chargers which have 3 coils. Will measure charing time too.

I'm using the First2savvv WXC-SCC-01 I got on Amazon it looks very similar to the DT-910 but it works fine with the 950XL in portrait and landscape mode.

Having boxed up my Lumia 930 to sell i no longer have the small puck style nokia qi charger that worked great with it, so started to use the DC-50 i got as a freebie.

Nope. Woke me twice through the night lighting up and making a noise and when i checked in the am, it said too many failed log ins. Not sure if it is bad placement or the fact that it charges it fully then discharges. Think the fact it is also charging itself to be used as a portable device makes it not a great match for nightly use.

Snagged a Nokia DT-900 on amazon uk for ?12, will be trying this tonight. Hope it is triple coil as it looks like placement is pretty important for this phone. Never had any problems with my Lumia 930, be gutted if i can't get reliable wireless charging!!
