Charger recommendation thread

[ninjasenses]

I decided not to buy the chargers at Verizon because I figured there would be other ones that are not as pricey. That being said what recommendations do you guys have for wireless/car/outlet chargers? Do those cheap wireless chargers on eBay actually work?

My personal opinion is you get what you pay for. I would rather spend a few more dollars on a charger i know is good than take a chance.

That being said there brands i am not aware of that are probably good quality.

My theory is you spent a lot for a phone, why take a chance with a second rate charger for the sake of saving a few bucks.

Wireless charger? The Tylt Vü is great. It's triple coil so it's not sensitive to proper placement.

Pricey, but good.

MY cheap Itian $22 works fine but slow, about 20% per hour charge

Actually, placement on the TYLT is limited in the Y direction because it's a stand charger. The engineers design the receiver such that it minimizes the placement sensitivity. The triple coil configuration has null zones between the coils depending on the receiver coil. T2 should be fine on it though.

I do agree it's pricey.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by "Y direction". I will say that I was able to charge my Droid Maxx perfectly well with the phone in portrait or landscape on the Tylt charger. I'm not quite sure why you'd need anything but that?

The T2 works on it fine. I'm just being stupid technical about the fact that there CAN be problems due to the fixed y location. What I meant by "limited in the Y direction" is that you can't move the phone up and down the charger.

I'm hearing that the Note 5 is having trouble on the Verizon tilt charger exactly because the receiver coil falls in a null spot on the charger and you can't move it up and down to fix that.
