1. Not that I've noticed.
2. It does, but I've found ways to deal with it - blocking the light with a book, keeping the charger below bed level, things like that.
3. Fast enough that it doesn't annoy me....I've never timed it nor have I used the Nexus 5 stock charger yet. Heck, that one is still sitting in the box, as I already had enough chargers. I think the wireless charger takes an input of 1.8A and the phone ends up getting 1.2A. (
This thread says it outputs 1A. Somewhere around 1A, I guess.)
4. It definitely will either stop or trickle charge once the device is full. In the morning the charger will have a white light (not blinking green) and the device will be at 100%.
5. It does have to be lined up but it never takes me more than one or two seconds to do it. The Nexus 7 is iffier because it's so much bigger than the puck - that can take me up to 10 seconds to line up.
Best I can do. In the video you can see I lined it up pretty easily; it's always like that.
