Compatible Qi Chargers - Moto 360

I have read miles may vary when it comes to these chargers and moto360. Like to start a thread for anyone that is able to charge their 360 successfully without any issues. Some of the issues include getting too hot and auto shutting down due to temp. I will update this list as much as I can.
Hopefully this is helpful for everyone.
Compatible:
PowerBot® PB1020 Qi - $14.99 - According to some reports, runs a little warm.
DiGiYes® Qi Cylindric Wireless Charger Charging Pad Charging Statio... - $12.59 - Works with closed loop bands like the Pebble steel band.
Samsung Galaxy S4 Qi Compatible Wireless Charging Pad - $41.95
Anker® Ultra-Slim Qi-Enabled Wireless Charging Pad - $22.99
Not Compatible:
JBL Powerup Speaker with Qi - Seems to overheat a little and stop charging.
Palm Pre - although it triggers docking mode, it does not actually charge according to users.

Probably not common but I have a JBL Powerup Speaker with Qi built in (was co-branded with Nokia)....works like a charm.

I would also like to see a good list for this. There were a few articles out about how 3rd party Qi chargers could charge the moto 360, but at most had one or two models on there.

This works for me
http://www.amazon.com/PowerBot®-PB1020-Inductive-Compatible-Smartphones/dp/B00F6SPYJS/

To expand this a bit can anyone recommend a dual qi charger? I would love to charge my G3 and 360 on one pad

Updated list from other threads.

It seems to now only charge to 86% and is getting darn hot while doing it. Not sure what was happening when I first used it but I would take this off the list of at least add a disclaimer.

Got the pb1020. Charges well. Watch a bit warm though. Definitely a top off charger, not a leave on all night deal

Updated with the note.

Wonder if the warmness of the chargers are related to the amperage draw. The charger only gives 850mAh, so if a pocket battery gives more, maybe the watch takes more and heats up

Okay here is my feedback.
I bought the powerbot from amazon (14.99). Watch gets hot and shuts off.. I'm sure its not good for the watch.
I will try to get the OEM secondary charger for my office.

so what is the best?

I bought 2 PowerBots and have never had this problem. Charged it from 0-100% this morning. Watch was warm, but not hot and still on.

Perhaps it depends on the AC adaptor? 1amp?

I've got them plugged into my AudioEngine 5+ speakers which outputs 5V, 500mA power supply.

How well do the DigiYes chargers work with the 360 with a Pebble Steel watchband? Because I just opted to go the diy route with my PowerBot charger and made a crappy metal pedestal for it. Works like a charm.

Been using the Samsung Galaxy S4 Qi Compatible Wireless Charging Pad since day one with the watch. It works great. I never yet used the stock charger and dock.
I tested the charging rate and it was 5 volts at about 0.5 amp. I'm using a 2 amp power source but it appears not needed.
I got it from Samsung on sale for $25 USD months ago. Currently its on amazon for around $40. Not worth it because there are less expensive options.

Bud, did you even try to place your watch on the original charger? I have the pebble steel band and am using the Moto charger which came with the watch. works just fine.
But I do commend you on the idea of a pedestal. The only negative to it is you loose the fantastic bedside night stand watch which Moto made for you.

I see that the N72 charger is only 1.35a. I thought that the N71 charger was 2a, but I could be mistaken and am too lazy to run upstairs and check.
Either way, I'm sure I have some 2a USB charger lying around the house somewhere, or could get one for a few bucks on Amazon. I'm not sure if that's just a suggestion or is actually required. I think it comes down to how much energy your device can draw. I imagine that, unlike a directly plugged in device, using wireless chargers will result in a slower charge cycle as a larger amount of the energy is lost, so it probably needs to be greater than what it normally uses. I know that, in general, you can use a higher mA output than what is required, as the device will only draw what it can/needs, but not sure about how wireless works in this regard.

I've followed a few reviews on this one since I have the S4 and was considering picking up the whole kit. The ones that mentioned trying another charger stated it didn't work. Wireless charging does work a bit differently since you lose some energy transferring the power to the induction coil.
I don't have time to source the reviews right now, but that might point you in the right direction.

This QI charger seems to be made to fit a Galaxy Phone. The edges seem to be tapered and possibily not allow the N7 to fix flush thus no charging. 50% off sounds like a good idea but it is a waste of money if it doesn't work.

just a heads up guys, searching across my multiple chargers in the house as a previous user mentioned the hp touchpads charger is 2.0a as well as the first gen nexus 7. As far as I can see motorola, htc, lg and even the new chromecast chargers are lower than 2.0a and thus not good for this pad.

Nokia DT-910 Charger-Did you have to modify it?

I just received my DT-910 charger today and right off the bat it didn't work. The phone would not charge in portrait or landscape modes. I messed with it a bit, and ended up cutting and taping a thick plastic stick to the bottom of the back rest to raise my phone up in landscape mode so the charger comes in contact with the Qi coil in the phone. It still won't work in portrait mode which isn't a big deal since I mainly bought this charger to use it in landscape mode. Has anyone else that bought this charger had to make modifications to get it to work?

You don't have to modify it for it to charge in portrait but landscape mode you do since it won't connect.

I wonder why I can't get it to charge in portrait then? Not a big deal. I did notice my phone is getting pretty warm sitting on the charger. It didn't get a fraction this hot on the Official Nexus charger.
Does the phone even recognize the charger? Like do the lightning bolt sign come up on the battery? Does the phone make a noise when it make contact? Do the Dt-910 light up?
At first I thought the charger wasn't working because I'm used to the fast charge of the OEM usb charger. It works but it works a bit slower than the OEM charger.

The charger only recognizes the phone in landscape mode, especially now since modifying the charger, light comes on, phone makes noise and my battery icon shows it's charging. I have the Spigen Slim Armor case on, but it definitely does not affect charging as it works with this charger and my Nexus wireless charger. I'd like to find an app showing what voltage and amperage this is charging at if possible, I got some digging to do.

That's exactly why its not working in portrait. I've read that the Spigen case raises the height of the phone which puts the phone out of range from the charging coil. Remove the case and it will work flawlessly.

That didn't even occur to me. Ha, thanks man.
I had the same issue - not being able to use the charger in portrait mode with a case on - and I solved it by cracking open the charger and moving the coil up a little bit. It really didn't take much, just take your time and you will be fine.

Can you swivel the "base where the magnetc connector sits"?
The bit that is raised with the connector on moves freely although feels sturdy.

How about charging speed? is it the same like the original charger dock?
Are you using that Kosee dock with a quick charger? I got a quick charger with my phone and I want to know if it's safe to use with this dock before ordering it.
I am just using the standard adapter that came with the phone and charging overnight. Is there any way I can check the device to see if it's compatible?

Check the charger and see if it says EP880 or EP881 on it. That's the model number of the fast chargers.
If you do have one of the above-mentioned chargers, could you tell me if you've noticed the dock getting very warm or that your charging rate is somewhat slower than without it? I would really appreciate your feedback.
It's 880. Haven't noticed it getting warm. I just ran a battery monitoring app that showed the mA it was receiving... It was around 8/900mA plugged in normally and 5/600 when docked. Guess that's a bad sign! On a plus the battery doesn't seem to drain any faster - hit 8 hours screen on time yesterday.

is the lower charge rate going to be a bad effect on the battery in the long run? how long does it take to charge from almost empty to 100%? does it feel secure/magnet strong enough to keep the phone from falling off from a slight movement?
just got this charge dock, and i like it. prob the only option right now for those who don't want to worry about if their case would fit.

Hi All,
Could anyone confirm this dock works much better than the sony dock when it comes to having the phone is a case?
I believe this bottom moves to assist with the docking of the phone?
Adapts to any size
Hi Shad,
Indeed the bottom helps.
It's fixed to a joint so will rotate as much as needed to adapt to the size/thickness.

The slower you charge the battery the less heat it will create. The less heat is better for the battery since heat accelerates the cell wearing out. If your charging it overnight - slow is better since you have the time.
Never charge your phone in direct sunlight or in a hot car if you want to keep your phone more then 1-2 years. You can shave off more then 100 cycles from it's life if you do it repeatedly.

Are you using the cable from the dock or the cable which came with the charger? The Sony charger only works at full output when it's usb cable is used.

Wireless charger suggestions?

Seen a lot of different ones on amazon and ebay. Just wondering what wireless chargers are worth getting.
I use Samsung's wireless charging stand, since I had it already from my S7. It works great with the G6.
I wonder why LG did come out with some new stuff for the LG G6?
Samsung had a bit of new Qi chargers( Dex), headphones..etc?

Is the fast wireless charging working on it? I read somewhere fast wireless charging doesn't work on Samsung's chargers
Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk
LG has their own mew fast charging unit. But they did not include the tech in yhe LG G6 they'll leave it for the v30 im sure. Imo if im wirelessly charging I'm not trying to fast charge anyhow. I've used many and IMO almost all built the same. Some have 3 coils for easier placement and some are smaller to take up less room. I literally just ordered this. 20% coupon code too. Plus Amazon 30 day return policy is amazing. For testing stuff. Not at all my video or advertising just sharing my experience.
I went with the CHOETECH Qi Model T513 wireless charger. Works great. I don't like stand chargers because I have kids and I'm sure they'd manage to knock my phone off of it... repeatedly. () I chose this one because it was decently priced, only about $20, and works great. Also has nearly all great reviews.

It just shows as standard charging, but typically I only need to charge my G6 at the end of the day and let it charge overnight, so I don't mind. If I need a quick charge, I just use the type C charger.
I got the CHOETECH T811C. It's cheap and seems pretty solid. Works through my case with no problems. I don't have any issues trying to find a "sweet spot" for it to start charging either, like I had with a previous charger.
I bought two chargers. One for work and one for home (bedside).
I use this one at work (the charge light was too bright in the room at night):

I've had this for a couple years now and just pulled it out the closet. I recently picked up a G6 and thought I'd give it a shot. To my surprise, it worked like a charm. I haven't noticed how fast it charges because I leave on overnight just because it's easier to deal with in the dark. I haven't noticed any heating issues as it doesn't seem hot when I remove it. All in all it has worked well for me.

I too use this charger. Works great for me.
EDIT: Used to work. Now it works for about 30 seconds and then flashes error. I think that it might be because of my case. Not sure thought as I'm not going to take my case off every time I charge.
I also have one of these https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Wire...sr=8-1&keywords=samsung+wireless+fast+charger It works fine even with my case. It didn't work well for my G4 and the tylt worked well with it not my G6 works well with my samsung and not with my tylt. Go figure.
I have two of the vertical stands chargers from Seneo. Phone sits on its all day at work, and all night when sleeping. NEVER gets hot. Definitely recommend and purchased off Amazon. I wish it didn't have such a bright charging indicator light on it or at least the option to shut it off, but nothing a little black marker can't fix.

I had a cheapie Adrema, surprise it works and charges at 1.5 amps, faster than my original Samsung wireless ones. My G6 also works with my Belkin one.

Any good with a soldering iron?
A resistor of ~330 ohms 1/8 watt in series with the LED will dim it to what should be a suitable level.
Maybe I tinker with stuff too much

I can solder, not great but doable. Although in this case it's not remotely worth it. If I were to open this up I'd just disconnect the light altogether.

Yeah I get ya.
But I'd just have to get inside, the over-bright LED would do my head in. I bet it's blue too...?
I definitely tinker too much.
Hi,
I have recently bought choetech wireless charger for my g6. The charger also comes with micro USB charging cable. What i love most is that this wireless charger comes with integrated smart chip inside it that resist the wireless charger pad from overheating.

The official Samsung wireless charger seems to work pretty good and comes with it's own micro usb wall plug. It's on sale for $9.99.

I walked into a Best Buy and ask them for a price match. The price match was approved quickly.
Picture frame with built in wireless charging.
Purchased Qi charger off Aliexpress and taped inside picture frame. Had to remove glass for reliable 1 amp charging. Phone held in place on the edge of inner frame.

Question Wireless charging stands

Anybody here tried the phone with a wireless charger and care to comment their experience? I haven't had a phone that could do this since my Nexus 4 so I'm in the market for one and I'm a little lost on what's what today.
So because I like living dangerously, I bought an Anker charging stand that in theory charges older pixels at 15W:
Anker 15W Max Wireless Charger with USB-C, PowerWave 7.5 Stand, Qi Certified Fast Charging for iPhone 12, 12 Pro Max, SE, 11, 11 Pro, 11 Pro Max, Galaxy S20 S10 & More (No AC Adapter): Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo
Shop Anker 15W Max Wireless Charger with USB-C, PowerWave 7.5 Stand, Qi Certified Fast Charging for iPhone 12, 12 Pro Max, SE, 11, 11 Pro, 11 Pro Max, Galaxy S20 S10 & More (No AC Adapter). Free delivery and returns on eligible orders.
www.amazon.co.uk
Hoping it'll work the same I'll report back
I've been using the same charging pad (lay flat, not a stand) that I bought when my wife and I had Nexus 5 and 6 respectively. No idea how much power goes through it, adapter I have plugged into it says 1A. Seems to work well.
The Anker I posted above works fine. I can't say how well it would work connected to a proper charger as I'm running it off the laptop's dock usb which provides limited power.
The Spigen SteadiBoost F309w is working for me, paired with Spigen 40 w dual charger.
I would like a wireless stand, but I've never used one before. Does a case interfere with using a stand? Ii don't want the newest one because of the fan. Any suggestions?
I just picked up an INIU 15w wireless charger stand from Amazon, it works fine with phone in the case, but doesn't charge if the phone is in landscape... Can't comment on the speed though.

Thank you, I just ordered it. I would prefer landscape, but this works too.
Edit: I just read that it makes chirping noise. Are you experiencing this?
I need new one as my OP8 one only does Qi at 10W.
Not paying 60 for the Google one if I can help it.
Anyone know if Qi chargers will auto stop charging at 100%?
I only use wireless during night really.

I'd like a slower charger like a 10W for overnight charging. Can you tell me the brand/model please?

Its just the official OnePlus 8 Pro wireless charger
At first it wasn't working on my charging pad I've been using with my 4xl. I thought oh no he we go, but it turned out I had to toggle battery share on and off.
It doesn't charge that well in my Tesla since the phone can't lay flat on the charging bad. Not sure how I can remedy that. I guess that's one of the drawbacks of the daft punk bump.
Wireless charging speed is super slow
I use 10w charging pad on P4XL is 660mA
On my new Pixel6 is only about 360mA
Slow ASF. Anyone can shere charging speed and divice?
Got this one delivered today. Seems to work fine leaving the case on my phone.

Im in two minds as to whether to get the google faster one when launched or not. I only charge over night anyway so dont specifically need faster charging.

I've ordered this, super cheap with plug option too, though delivery is late. Will post back once it arrives
Anyone found a way yet (through root) to enable full charging speed on third-party wireless stands (should be 23 watts)?
I purchased this one, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08RJ8GW7P/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1, and I'm very happy with it. I don't need rapid charging as I only charge my phone when I go to bed at night. It can be used in portrait or landscape mode and it shuts down when a full charge is achieved. The LED was a little bright at first, but since it shuts down at full it was a nonissue.
So is this good? I got up to 1850 mA when phone was at 80%
I'll share Amazon link if anyone is interested
