I wouldn’t bother!

I’ve got two, a more expensive Belkin one and a cheaper one from TK Maxx. They charge painfully slowly.

I got a fast charging usb c plug for mine and it charges to 50% in about half an hour, miles better.

I don't know about you but I sleep for about 5 hours and that's more than enough to charge my phone.

Just get one of the Anker or Ravpower ones off Amazon.

If you're charging it whilst your asleep what's the point in it being wireless. Just get a £5 plug in one.

That's it, with a decent handset & turbocharged you shd be up & running in less than 5 hrs which is more/should be enough even with a depleted battery.

It doesn't fall off the bedside table like a cable requiring me to squeeze my hand down the side of the bed to retrieve it

Might get more views if you change your thread to "chargers"

I got a cheapish (£15) well reviewed one from amazon (Yuanguo) to try out and I’ve been really impressed. Admittedly it’s not the quickest charge method but as a phone stand and charger that I use overnight, it’s easier just to pop the phone straight on and the wire is hidden away.
