What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

No but mine won't charge through my Otter Box. If I take it out it charges fine

 

turn it glass side down

 

I'll try it, thanks!

 

Installed tow mirrors from 1A Auto

 

Before COVID I had the bubble issue and it took them a month to get the part so I could only imagine...

 

Distance matters!

It's a matter of transmitter to receiver efficiency, we could blast 500W from the transmitter but to get 50W to charge your phone, but do we want a microwave ourselves rolling down the road?

I suspect the Toyota is a 15W transmitter. Faster to use a wired port to recharge my phone, but handy to have feature. Road trips I'm using Android Car, nav, and podcast, so my phone is hardwired.

 

yea i never use my wireless charger.

 

I can't say officially because I haven't tried in the Tacoma but the Qi chargers I have don't work face down. The charge coils are on the back side and don't work if there's something metal between the charger and the coils.

 

Come to think of it I think I did try it glass side down and it didn't work. I'm gonna find out soon for sure though.

 

Interesting pov. But seems like you have more bottle openers on your rig than I. Props to you my dude.

 

mine works that way so idk

 

Serious question, if you can’t see the screen how can you be sure that it is charging? Are you going off an initial vibration when it starts to charge?

 

Mine beeps.

 

It didn’t work face down, mine has a light to the left side on the charger that is orange when charging or green when charged.

 

I really like these, but the idea of having this so close to your leg in Phoenix summer weather just doesn't sit well. 100-120 degree summers and car interiors easily reach 200 plus degrees here. Anyone else install these in a similar climate? I'm envisioning bbq grille marks and 3rd degree burns on my leg.

 

I forgot about that light. I was so disappointed with its output that I went with a high power USB-C outlet that I installed.

 

Crack your windows. Once you install some gear to it, your leg should touch that instead.

 

Exactly, it will just be zipper burns.

 

That’s pretty friggin cool, those are beautiful aircraft. Can’t even imagine what that must be like!

 

Getting 4.88's today. No pictures, sorry!
