I just bought the Zens Dual Qi charger in the UK for use in the US. Any have the UK version could you let me know the electrical plug type and voltage input? (also if possible the input requirement of the Pad itself, I do not think it required 220V to work) Could I adapt it to use here in the US or am I out of luck. I still have a bit of time to cancel my order.

Tried the Energizer dual charger one, but it is oh so crappy, it requires precise location to work.
Found the answer from another post, I will re-post it for other to see

So, after staying in backlog at most sites I now canceled all of them and decided to order one directly through www.zensshop.com. It was shipped the day after I ordered it and I got it in a day. Did a small photoshoot of the unpack:

The charger is 100-240V, so should work almost everywhere. I believe they are not associated to Maxell, as Maxell is a relatively big company that has just recently launched it, whereas Zens already has their chargers up and running for 2 years. I believe they were the first in Europe, so probably Maxell was inspired by them. I think the design is great and the positioning is very good. You can just put it on the charger and unlike the Energizer ones; it doesn't really matter where you put it. Also it's not under an angle, so your Nexus 4 won't drop off. I am very happy with mine, so good luck finding yourself one if they haven't sold out yet

However, it might also be the battery, i have two batteries, one is the one that came with the Prophet and one is a cheap battery i ordered from Dealextreme.
I do know that the cheap battery is dead, but the other one (I did some testing with it, it shows up at 1.4V at my multimeter) i'm not sure if it is dead.
The phone has been like this before:
It randomly worked, randomly turned off, it wouldn't work for like 10 days, then when i put the battery in again it worked.
It kept doing that until it died completely.
Any suggestions?
I can't understand on photo. A battery pin is broken? If the problem is broken pin, a watchseller or jeweler can fix it. They have the right equipment to work with small things

You think they will fix this?
I would try to get a new (third) cheap battery.
Or try to re-animate the cheap one (dangerous, forbidden, but works often for me: open battery casing, unsolder LiIon-Cell, reload with Lab power supply to around 3-3.8 V (never > 4.2V!!!!), resolder, put in Prophete, start charging....)
The pins look ok. 1.4V for LiIon is below the deadly shutdown value!

OK, maybe my answer is a bit late...
Anyone got their hands on this cradle? The proper model is WCD-800, but $140 a pop is not given away at all.

Thanks LG, this is WAY more useful than a good qi car charging dock. Next can we get an an official led-lit USB cable while we wait for actual accessories we might WANT to use?

$140 to charge your phone?!?! HELL **** NO!!!!!!. Amazing thing is, there are dumb enough people out there to buy it.
too expensive
I think this was aimed at someone who sits at a nice oak desk inside of a plush office all day (lawyer, corporate big wig). Overpriced? Yea more than a little bit when there's cheaper alternatives. Wanna see what dumb people buy? http://www.amazon.com/CTA-Digital-i...0340&sr=8-6&keywords=ipad+potty+training+seat

It's been rather hit or miss with car chargers. Have a look over here: http://www.droid-life.com/2015/10/19/nexus-6p-nexus-5x-quick-charge/ As you can see, you might get really good results with that, or you might not. I've had good results with their products, so I personally wouldn't be overly concerned. The point is though - we won't know until someone tries it and reports the results back.
If you're buying through Amazon, you can always return it. Go get the Ampere app from the play store, plug it in to that charger, and if you're not satisfied with the results, send it back.
I suggest the tronsomart. It's not true 3A but it'll be good enough.
Good
many one are using this charger and it is really a good one for long drive.
I can confirm it the 6P does at least display the "Charging Rapdily" message when using this charger though it won't take advantage of the 3A the 6p can handle. Seems to work fine.

hey guys,
i have the wiredest problem.
i've phurched a new galaxy s5 and when i connect it to the charger, a charging icon appears but the battery % dosent go up, only down.
i've downloaded many battery analysing app and theey all seem to think that everything is fine, that the current flows and all, but the % dosent go up!
i switched a battery and a cable and its definitly a phone problem (i can charge the battery in another phone)
some suggested that i sould replace the charging port but it looks completly new and fine, and also cost quite a lot of money to replace.
is there any other soultion?
thanks!!
Sorry I encountered the same problem on my old s3. I finnaly solved the probleme by changing the micro hdmi port. Sorry I know you won't here this but i search everything. I replace myself it's not so hard. I do it because my s3 was in ending life.
It does sound like the charger port.....
The replacement parts aren't that expensive (under £10 off eBay).
Just make sure you get the right one....
Look at the pictures......

These parts are device variant specific......
It would probably be a good idea to match 'rev' versions too.....that was certainly the case with the S2....If the wrong rev version board was put in, it led to signal problems etc......

So, I had to change my original Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime charger 'cause I lost it, and I went for AUKEY quick charger -> https://www.amazon.it/AUKEY-Caricabatterie-Caricatore-Samsung-iPhone/dp/B01AHYR04M, tempted by the possibility of charging my phone in less than the usual 2 hours.
However, I'm realizing now I probably did a bad move, since I'm reading many posts about how using a quick charger can reduce your battery life on the long run, some state they've used quick charge from the beginning (I mean right after they bought their phone) and they had to change battery or phone after one year and half more or less, not even able to reach more than 2 years, whereas some other claim they've always used a normal charger and their battery is as still good as the "old" times.
I'm thinking about sending the charger back and take a normal one, what's your opinion about it? Should I go for a charger with 2.0A in output?
R4P doesn't have Quick Charge compatibility in any case. It'd probably overheat like crazy even if it did.
Sure it has...

... see that circle around the thunderbolt icon? That means fast charging, when I charge the phone with a non quick charger, it only appears the thunderbolt. And it's also stated in the block screen, "Fast charging".
