$12 Wireless Charging through an Otterbox Defender!!! - Galaxy Note 3 Accessories

Hi everyone. Just wanted to share my experience here. I've got my note 3 covered and protected with an otterbox defender as well as a Glass pro screen protector. I found a wireless charging kit that seems to charge fairly quick with the defender on! I averaged 20% per hour with the screen set to always on ( lowest brightness). I should also note that I am running tweaked 3.5. Below is the link to the eBay seller I got mine from. Want to know the best part? It was only $12 USD!!!!! I can't speak for the brand as far as longevity goes as I only had it for a few days.... but it does seem to work. I haven't tested to see if I lost NFC though. Nothing to really test it with but please let us know if you try it ! Also, the cover gets a tad warm but it says 93.7 degrees ( again with screen on ) when checking with battery spy.

Hope that helps some fellow note users out

Thanks for the review. I just purchased the same thing today and was hoping it would work. Cant wait to try it out.

Sadly this doesn't ship to Australia... ;-;

I've been contemplating getting one of those. The issue I have is that I use an Mountek nGroove Snap 2 car cd mount and I have to have a thin metal plate inside the case for it to stick. I wonder if it would interfere with it?

you got lucky. i got the same charger. and mine was defective didnt work. thats only a single coil. i ended up ordering a nice 3 coil for 25 and works amazingly. i wouldnt buy that style again if my life depended on it. seller said would resend had already been almost 2 months. i ended up filing via paypal and fought for my money back. i have pics of that one fully disassembled its a single coil. this is what i got and works perfect http://www.ebay.com/itm/321554421626?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

The eBay listing mentioned that a receiver card is needed. What is that where do you get one?

I got that specific card cause the 3 post on the side some only have 2 what I found is that 3rd enabled sleep and charger to turn off and on when full. Been using 3 weeks with that combo works amazing. I don't even have to have centered. I just toss on dock upside down sideways doesn't matter charges it. It will actually charge a full 1/4 to 1/8 of charger not even on it charges just when close. And it's a 3 coil. I wasted so much time on first one. This combo was perfect

The one I listed came with the reciever as well as the charging pad. I have since ordered another for my wife's S5 in an otterbox defender and no issues with that one as well ( from the same seller ). I'm inclined to say the single charging coil units work well. As far as the metal plate goes, I haven't tested it. I did disassemble the reciever and it looks easy to mod into a mount though. Might that be an option Chillout2010? Kaos , it sounds like you had bad luck on the first you ordered....was it from this same seller ?

---

FYI, if you take apart the charging pad, this is what you are left with. There are only 2 screws and double sided foam tape holding everything together. You could punch 2 holes in your metal mount, and resolder the coils to the inside of the phone mount relatively effortlessly I'd think Chillout2010.

Possible. But ordered took over a month to come. Then said resend. Waited another month. Never got anything. I figured I went cheap got burned. Got lucky got my cash back. Then added to it keeping old reciever from the package deal. That works. And got the stand. Which is 3 coils instead of the one. No issues at all works amazingly.
The other one stayed red and green never worked.

I'm guessing it's a different seller then. I'm on the east coast ( maryland ) and had mine in 4 days counting the weekend. I ordered from a US seller in New Jersey ........ the key is to order from a somewhat local seller. I order from eBay too much lol. My post carrier must hate me [emoji14]
The seller I linked is reputable and stateside. No issues thus far. I bookmarked their shop and will definitely order again from them.

I just ordered one lets see what luck i have with this lol

Please do report back in

Got mine worked well with my note 3 out the box and I ordered an extra one for my wife's note 2 and wont work with that model but my note 3 is working flawlessly.

---

Any idea if this will work with the Zerolemon battery case?

Purchased 2 of these. Using a Spigen Neo Hybrid case or none at all. I can say yes it does work but you have to be extremely precises about where you put the phone down. I would say you have around a 1/4 inch square.

Note 2 on tmobile anyway is missing hardware. There is a mod requiring you to solder points to the contacts if you feel brave.
