Put phone down on wireless charger. Charging notification lights up. Go to sleep. Wake up. Check phone. Is at 2%. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Fucking. Wireless. Chargers.

You know, I think it’s something with the formatting here where it makes the slash disappear. Not sure what syntax I’d need to use to make the whole thing appear properly.

It’s a markdown dialect, \ is the escape char, so you need to escape it :)
Same as r*ddit in that regard.

You might want to look into Qi 2 chargers if you’re having alignment problems. Magnets snap the phone into the correct location.

And if your phone doesn’t have the alignment magnets, you can get a magnet ring to put on your case, OR, you can get the greatest phone grip I’ve ever used, which lets you charge through the grip (if your case is thin enough).

Compatible with all MagSafe and Qi2 alignment magnets. Fantastic phone grip. I love it very much.

That’s pretty cool, but I don’t think it beats my phone grip. That one is awesome, it comes with mag rings to help align your phone if needed, has a ring you can put your finger through for extra grippiness, and the back of the ring is magnetic as well, so I can stick my phone to anything a magnet sticks to.

Only annoying parts are I have to take the ring off for wireless charging, and you might have your ring stick to whatever you stuck it on if you put it on backwards, but that one is a quick fix. I do like that yours doesn’t have the first one though.

That hinge is pretty dope, but I wonder how much that slows the induction charging. It adds a fair amount of distance between the charger and phone’s coils.

Luckily fast charging gives me at least enough to make it half the day in the time it takes to get dressed.

Not too long ago I had bought a power bank, for a holiday, and since returning I’ve found myself occasionally using it when I’ve done something a bit worse than this: I’ve been so tired before bed, I’ve forgotten to even plug my phone in!

I think I’ve used the power bank, after waking up, more at home than on holiday.

I rolled over my charger end in my office chair. Now it’s 50/50 whether it’s charged in the morning. :(
