Incipio vehicle dock alternative - Moto Z2 Force Accessories

I bought Z2 force and found out there is not a single Incipio vehicle dock on the market. So I asked Incipio directly and they said the dock is discontinued.
Do you know about any alternatives?
Maybe use some other moto mod and make a holder from it?
All I need is to plug a phone into some dock with fast charging without plugging cable to phone.

I knew places were sold out, but they literally discontinued it? Well that's a level of depressing I didn't want to read.

Eventually, I found it on eBay. There are not many pieces left, so be hurry, if you want some

I bought the incipio wireless charging/battery mod, and I have a RAM X-Grip mount with a wireless charging pad attached to the center hub of the x-grip. I did not use a fast charging pad, but you certainly could.
I had the smaller of the two x-grips for my previous phone (Galaxy S7 Active), and my new Z2 Force does fit, but just barely with the verizon bumper installed on it. I'd probably go with the larger one if I had to do it now, and that would give more room for the charging pad.

The Incipio wireless charging/battery mod only charges at 5w (slow charge), wireless for the mod and the phone (phone gets 100% before mod charges) or through the phone, after the phone turbo charges itself to 100 then the mod slow charges. The Moto wireless shell does charge wirelessly at 10w (fast charge but no turbo charge) but doesn't have an extra battery.

good info, thanks! I guess that means using a fast charging pad won't make any difference, then. Sorry to get other folks' hopes up.

It's currently available from Verizon. Got one yesterday

Best Inductive Charging Pad for Droid 4

I just bought the inductive charging cover for the Droid 4 and a Nokia DT-900 charging pad. I'm loving the reality of wireless charging so far. No more searching for a charging code that's fallen on the floor when going to bed. The DT-900 is a nice charging pad and appears to charge the phone quickly. I like the fact that the plate doesn't make any noise when I place the phone down on it. My only complaint is that the phone has to be placed fairly low on the pad to properly charge. If I center the phone on the charger, it appears to charge for a few minutes, but then gives me a flashing light to indicate improper charging. This wouldn't be as big of a deal if the error was more immediate. Has any one tried any of the other charging pads out there such as the LG WCP-300 to see if there are better alternatives out there?
I am using a Ghost-100 by Insipio that i bought because my usb port broke and i haven't had time to take it apart and resolder it. It seems to work just fine for me plus it really wasn't that expensive even buying it from Verizon. I have only had it for a few days however so we will see.

I live in Hungary, too. It's not impossible, you have to check eBay quite often, as there are very few wireless charging covers are up for sale. Last one was listed about a week ago. The main problem is that it's quite expensive for us with shipping (you won't be able to buy it under 50-60 USD - 10-15000 HUF).
What other accessories you want to buy? Send me a PM, maybe I can point you in the right direction.

I live in Canada, and had small issues finding the charging pad that works as well as the battery cover that works with the charging pad.
I took the recommendations from the Verizon website and bought the Verizon/Motorola wireless charging cover, and the LG wireless charging pad.
I bought both from https://www.fusionelectronix.com/
They are located in the USA, and i called the phone number before I ordered. They answer their phones. and The person I spoke with was extremely friendly and gave me a custom deal on shipping. I had my items within 2 days and everything was perfect.

I recently have been running through USB cables and got tired of not being able to count on a steady charge overnight. So I decided to purchase the inductive charging cover from Verizon's website and a PowerBot PB1020 off of Amazon. It works great and was only around $20.

As I am guessing you've long since replaced your Droid 4, would you be willing to part with the charging cover? I am searching high and low but can't find one for sale.

Cheap wireless charging pad for verizon LG G2?

I got a Yes Digi Qi charger from Amazon (link). It works just fine with my G2. The first time I put it on it kept connecting/disconnecting the power rapidly, until I realized it has to sit up just a tad above being centered. I haven't had any problems since.
I haven't received my case yet (Incipio DualPro), so I don't know if it will work with it. I have, however, gotten it to charge through a stack of about 20 sheets of printer paper so I'm sure it'll be fine with a case.
Update: Just got my case yesterday. I can happily report that the charger works with the case. Yay!
Thanks! I will be receiving this as a gift. Hopefully it works...

Nokia DT-900 Half-off
The Nokia DT-900 is currently half-off on att.com, if anyone's interested.
http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/accessories/chargers/sku6290260.html#fbid=Qec_2FFDzlV
The Nokia's look like they are small and thick. I'd like to see some pics of the Nokia with a G2.
The Lerway looks similar to my Samsung model except it lacks the LED, which I can do without. I'd spend $20 on a Qi Charger. Can't see spending $50+ though.
DERP!
Just watched a Youtube video and realized the Nokia DT-900 Qi Charger uses a stupid barrel plug for power. FAIL. Instant fail. I travel and love being able to take 1 wall adapter, 1 MicroUSB cable, and my Qi Charging plate and it lets me Qi Charge, or charge my headphones, or tablet, controllers, etc.
Not interested in a Qi Charger that requires its own power supply. I'd rather do the LerWay or try to find another Samsung for $24 (what I paid for mine).

That's pretty cool! Let us know if the 2.1A output will achieve fast charge. I just got a power bank and even with the 2A output it slow charges.
I don't think you're getting a fast charge with Qi. I think the transfer rate is super slow which is a limitation of the current technology.

This is a receiver that is charged from a charging pad, not a charging pad itself. Not sure if that was clear....

Does that charge as fast as a normal charger? I think wireless charging would be nice (though not really necessary) so if it works just as fast or faster i might get one but if not then i dont see the benefit for myself. Thanks

Whoops, sorry I took so long to respond. It's definitely slower than the wired charger that came with the G2. But on the other hand, I'm in and out of my office throughout the day, so it's nice to just pop it on when I'm in and let it sip some juice. It's usually full before noon, even with me putting it on and off. I don't charge it overnight so it gets down to about 30-40% depending on my use the rest of the previous day.

I believe the limitation of Qi is 500 - 700 mA unfortunately.
I think, but not sure, that you can use and qi wireless charger as long as it's connected with the included (and rather large) Droid Turbo power adapter.

I cant imagine you would need to use the turbo charger for this. Like SBC44 said the speed is going to be limited fairly low with wireless charging. It wouldn't be possible to charge that fast with wireless technologies, at least not with the current technology. The turbo charger moves a lot of juice.
Here is some good reading if your interested.

I dont think so.. wall chargers are more powerful than wireless chargers.. Wireless chargers are still need to improve alot..
Wireless charging takes more than overnight!
Do not waste your money on the Verizon wireless charger. The battery in this is so big that even overnight does not bring a phone that was down to 25% up to a full charge.
Thanks for letting us know. I was about to buy the Verizon wireless charger 2 days ago when I was buying all my accessories for the phone. Would've been a bummer to find out how slow the wireless charger chargers. Thanks.

The TYLT brand wireless charger is capable of normal wall plug speeds. It will be much faster than the average Qi charger but at the same time the turbo charger is amazing. I do not know of a charger that can charge as fast as the turbo charger but this TYLT brand is pretty good. The only reason I would get a wireless charger is to reduce wear and tear on my microUSB port (the culprit for retiring most of my previous android devices).
I also think its common knowledge that rapid charging and discharging of LiPo batteries reduces the overall life expectancy. I'm not sure what Motorola is doing with this whole "rapid charge and non removable battery" thing. Its possible that Turbo users can prolong the life of their batteries by charging at normal rates but I honestly don't have enough info to make a confident statement about that.
Here's the fastest Qi charger that I know of right now:

Their website just says coming soon, but Android Police did a hands-on post about it a couple of weeks ago. Looks like the price will be about $80 (!).
I currently use this wireless car dock and haven't had any problems with it..
I was thinking of getting this car mount, but wasnt sure how it would work with the turbo. I have a few questions for you;
do you have a case on it? if so which one... i have the otterbox commuter...
what car are you using it in?
are you using the suction cup or vent connection?
any info would be helpful!

I'm not using a case on the Turbo, but I used it with an HTC One M8 with a Commuter case and it worked fine. I drive a Chevy Avalanche and mounted the cradle using a ProClip vehicle mount and one of their adapter plates for an XM Radio believe it or not. That matches up pretty well with the tab on the back of the Choetech mount, but I did have to wrap a few rubber bands around the tab so it was tight enough.
I've used this one for close to a year with various devices. It does charge at 1.2a but is limited by the wireless receiver, most are .75a or less. That being said, this unit works great with my BN turbo. It is always at 99-100% after about 7 hours on night stand even when starting below 20%. Currently I'm not using a case, but I have a Commuter case I used for awhile and the wireless charger still worked fine through the case.
May be available in the end of 2015!
Right now there is no wireless charger that supports faster charging but it will soon be available in the end of 2015 as it is under developing state.
I have the Tylt and it says it supports the rapid charging. I can't say it is as fast as the wall charger since I've only had it a few days, but it does seem that the initial charge is very fast.
Also, very stylish. The wife doesn't even complain about leaving it on the night stand.
Bought the TYLT when I pick up the DT its well worth the $75. It charges faster than all my other home Qi chargers and it keeps the phone at a decent angle for viewing. It is not able to keep up with the draw of TS3 Viewer though, but not really a normal issue. I use this charger everyday and it will charge the phone from sub 15% to full overnight. Consequently I normally use this charger to charge up my wife's S5 and it seems to charge at a similar rate to her normal Samsung charger. I like useing this charger over the turbo charger simply because it should help the battery to last longer.
As far as dash mount I use the iOttie Easy Flex Wireless Qi Charger. That one maintains battery levels with the screen always on running Dash and Google Play (it also almost keeps up with running GPS ie. Waze/Google Maps) I posted an extensive reply in a later thread about that charger.
i bought the TYLT and love it. when i turn droid off and put it on TYLT and droid turns on itself. how do i keep droid off while charging? thanks.

Turbo Charger for Car

So one of the best things about the Turbo is the Turbo Charging. I wanted to be able to do this in my car, but there was no Car Turbo Charger on Motorola's website. Eventually found out that they don't make one, but other companies do. After looking on Amazon, found this guy: http://goo.gl/rbfX1H Only cost $16 (at least when I bought it) and has additional usb charging port for additional device. Comes in white as well. And yes, it turbo charges the same as the home turbo charger which is awesome!!!
The key is to just make sure the charger supports Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 - there are several others on Amazon you might want to check out, but I found this one to be the best for the money and features and it's working great for me!
This is pretty useful, I didn't know we had quick charge on car

I use the original quick charger that came with my phone in my car with an ac car power inverter. So anything with a normal plug can go into your cigarette lighter port. Basically something like this...

This is a little expensive because it has USB ports too. But Walmart, Amazon, etc. always have sales on these. The one I have I got for $9.99 with tax. Just gotta look around. I just did a quick search for an example.
I haven't tried the two port ones with quick charge, however
The Choe 4 port quick charger adfoc.us/29745255996782
and the Tronsmart 4 port charger adfoc.us/29745256032891
have both performed great for me. I have to give the Tronsmart the edge due to simply feeling a bit more solid, not having a glossy finish, the longer warranty and the 5 star rating vs the choe's 4 star.
Someone tested this?

Not all QI fast chargers working with N8

Have a variety of fast QI chargers that all works well with my N5, even with cases (think and thick cases).
Use the same chargers with the N8 and it seems to be a hit or miss, especially with cases. Some work and some do not.
Anyone else experiencing this?
I have the Samsung Quick Charging Stand and a Spigen triple coil qi charger that's a rip of the Tylt Vu. They all work well but the spigen doesn't quick charge.
Chotetch fast charger works, confirmed because I have one as well as two convertibles from Sammy.
The choetech will charge the phone through the Sammy military grade case (whereas the Sammy one wont).

I may have jumped the gun on this. I use an Anker 40w 5 port charger to feed the Seneo, as I also have a Gear S3 and an iPad that I charge at night. My Samsung charger is in a desk drawer somewhere.
I'll dig it out and hook the Seneo up to it to see what happens.
I went into a Verizon store and my Note 8 worked on their last Gen wireless charger with no problem. I believe I purchased my chargers on ebay so my conclusion is they must not be official changers and are knock offs. They look exactly like the official chargers down to the label on the bottom. They obvious knock offs have a slightly different label. The "some people" I was referring to were people who had the same experience as me based on researching this problem. Learned my lesson, saving a couple of bucks isn't worth it in the end.
I have two of the original Samsung fast charge pads (an American one and a Korean one) and they both work on my Korean Note 8 through its slim case.
Think thats my problem. I have a whole bunch of aftermarket QI Fast Chargers. Some seem to work better than others. But they all Work Well with my N5.

Not there. According to the manual should be under Advanced Settings under Battery under Device Maintenance
Weird. Wonder if it's different from a carrier version vs. an unlocked. Try a search for Fast Wireless Charging
