Just got this statement in an email follow up asking for reviews. I dont have a QC2 type of adapter and will have to find one! *Unless 3.0 is backwards compatible?

---------------------------------------------

We’d like to share some information with you that will help you get the most out of your CHOETECH wireless charger when it arrives.

★ Please Note: The fan can only spin when it is in fast wireless charging mode.

- It can charge iPhone 8/8 Plus, iPhone X at stand charging speed.

- The wireless Fast Charge feature is ONLY compatible with Galaxy Note 8, S8, S8 Plus, S7, S7 Edge, Note 5, S6 Edge plus models. Other Qi-enabled devices will charge at regular speed. ( Please Note: The fan can only spin when it is in fast wireless charging mode. )

- QC 2.0 Adaptive Fast Charger is required for the fast charge wireless charging feature, please use QC 2.0 original adapter as its power source.

- The protective case is highly recommended to be removed if it is too thick during charging as it will affect charging or may lead to overheating.

- This wireless charger is not suitable for iPhone with Non-standard MFI Certified charging receiver or wireless charging case.

- It is a desktop charger, not fit for car.

In theory, QC 3 should be backwards compatible with QC 2 products. The QC 2 item should only pull what it needs from the QC 3 charger. That said, there's always the chance for error though if the product team for the QC 2 item didn't implement the protocols properly.
[LG V30 Accessories] stuartmc:
From LG's release graphics and other commentary, it would appear that our "fast charging" only occurs with 15 watt capable QI chargers. Doing the math, Watts= Amps x Volts is a little misleading. Most manufacturers only tell you the input figures from the AC adaptor. In the case of the Choetech, that would be 1.8A at 9V maximum input and would be 16.2 watts. The problem is the conversion from input to output of the charging device. Most of these devices range from 70 to 80% efficient. The higher 80% being reserved to those that have built in cooling, like the fans in the Choetech. When we apply the 80% conversion to the Choetech, we arrive at a maximum (theoretical) output of 12.96 watts (it's probably less than that in practice).

If the V30's circuitry needs to see an output of 15 watts to trigger its fast charging mode, then obviously, most of these current "Samsung capable" fast charging stands are not going to work. Darn frustrating, if you ask me.
[LG V30 Accessories] Funbit:
I'm using Beatife Qi wireless charger. It's only 10W capable (QC 2.0 I suppose) and can charge the phone from 5% to 100% in around 2h 30m. I also use pretty thick DUXDUCIS plastic case and it makes no difference in charging speed.
[LG V30 Accessories] immerstark:
The sad thing is that according to the qi certification documents the V30 will only accept 10.5W from a 15W charger. So even assuming the phone worked correctly with 15W chargers (which through testing it has been revealed that it does not) we must pay over 3 times more for chargers that are only marginally faster than the 10W Samsung compliant ones.
[LG V30 Accessories] Juan501:
Samsung Messed Up Everything

The biggest problem is that Samsung screwed up with their "fast charge" which means 99% of these "fast charge" wireless chargers only charge quickly with Samsung phones. The actual qi standard requires requires 15 watts for fast charging and there are only 3 actual products for sale:

1)Belkin Boost Up (double check as only one of the 3 versions is actually a 15W charger)

2)Incipio Ghost Qi ( again, make sure it is the 15W version)

3)Verizon Wireless Charging Pad

ALL of these are $60-70; there are no cheap versions.
[LG V30 Accessories] veener79:
So these 3?

Qi Medium Power Certified Chargers

Yes, those are the three.

Personally, I have the Belkin and it does say "Fast-charging wirelessly" when I use it. Also, it works fine with the Spigen Neo Hybrid case I had to add to my phone to keep it from sliding in my car mount.
[LG V30 Accessories] nx_2000:
I'm successfully using two Qi chargers I bought three years ago for my Windows Phone. At home I have the Nokia DT-900 and at the office I have a cheap Powerbot PB1020. The powerbot is a small circular device so I do need to center the phone for it to work properly.

Neither of these are fast charge devices, but I have no interest in degrading battery longevity when my phone is sitting on these chargers overnight for hours on end, or top-off charging at the office.
[LG V30 Accessories] MaxusValtron:
In another thread , someone said that their Incipio Ghost 15W was NOT indicating "fast charging". Someone else did pretty extensive testing on the Verizon one and it also showed no fast charging.

However, there is at least one more 15W charger listed by the WPC, from a company called Zens. A user indicated that their Zens charger was explicitly saying "fast wireless charging" when connected. So it seems that and the Belkin BoostUp are the only options right now.
[LG V30 Accessories] slight22:
Has anyone tried this with a V30? It actually says on Amazon's website -

Incompatible device:

Moto Droid Turbo/LG V10

So by extension, could we assume the V30?
[LG V30 Accessories] CHH2:
They haven't updated their specs in while it seems. That list would also include the V20 too. Because neither the V10 nor the V20 support wireless charging. So no, you could not assume the V30. The V30 will wireless charge off of that charger, it's just not going to do it fast.
[LG V30 Accessories] undagroundrican:
Do you know if this is available in the u.s.? The link goes to Japan's Amazon I believe.
[LG V30 Accessories] ChazzMatt:
I know something about the 2014 Droid Turbo XT1254 since I own the "international" variant 2014 Moto XT1225, and have written guides for all the 2014 Quarks (Droid Turbo, Moto Turbo, Moto Maxx). The ONLY reason

this tilt style charger

would be "incompatible" with that phone is because it's an inferior 2-coil design instead of 3-coil design?

The Moto Quarks have the charging coil on the lower third of the phone. So you need a 3-coil design (like the picture below), where the coils are interspersed evenly down the pad. Even in landscape mode, a 3rd VERY BOTTOM coil would be important for the Droid Turbo. It must be the same for the LG V10?

I know it LOOKS like that 2nd coil would be low enough, but it must not be -- or there's manufacturing variance so that in some units the coils are higher. There's no other reason it wouldn't work for the Droid Turbo.

This is also why single-coil flat charging pads (especially the smaller hockey-puck style) often don't work well either. With the Moto Quarks, you have to hang the phone 2/3 off the pad to hit the "sweet spot". Whereas with my 2013 LG Nexus 5, the charging coil was in the middle of the phone, not the lower third.

Once I went to to the 3-coil tilt-style charging pads, I dumped all my flat pads, especially the single-coil hockey puck style pads -- as they no longer worked for my Moto XT1225.

The only reason this charger is listed as incompatible has to be due to inferior design or manufacturing quality control -- not the amps or wattage. Has nothing to do with the ability to charge, if the charging coil can hit the right spot. Probably the same reason the LG V10 is listed?

Enough Moto Droid Turbo/LG V10 owners must have returned this charger that the phone was put on the "incompatible" list. Instead, the manufacturer should have made a 3-coil design.
[LG V30 Accessories] slight22:
I have an old Zens Wireless Qi charger from years ago, when i had my Galaxsy S2 or 3 (can't remember), but it was back when you needed a different back piece to charge your phone. I dropped my V30 onto it the other day for a few minutes and it worked, not fast charge of course but it works.

So my question is this. Will a really old wireless charger, that does work on the new phone, hurt a new phone battery?
[LG V30 Accessories] teknomedic:
Has anyone had experience with this brand or this specific charger?

https://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Charger-TechMatte-Charging-Adapter/dp/B017KQXO4U

It seems like its only 5v/1a output, but some reviews claim faster charging... perhaps with a stronger power adapter?

The design is exactly what I need for setting up my truck for wireless charging... so if anyone knows of a faster changing pad that's also rectangular and slim like this please let me know. If it matters I can drive many hours at a go with maps/waze and steaming Google Play music via Bluetooth which can quickly drain a battery

edit, or this one?

https://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Cha...&qid=1512319221&sr=1-16&keywords=wireless+pad

edit 2 or this one... this almost seems perfect for my needs.. portrait charging and compact... if only it didn't swivel.

Probably not unless we know it specifically supports the V30, since it seems most 15 watt chargers don't. This one is unlikely to, as it was registered over a year ago.

https://www.wirelesspowerconsortium.com/products/details/1880/wireless-charging-pad

But it would be nice to see if someone has tried it out.
[LG V30 Accessories] AvroeArrow:
Just to add some more data to this thread. I have 3 different fast wireless charging pads/stands that I used with my old Galaxy S7 and even they have quite the variance in charging power/speed. I use a USB power analyzer widget (YZXStudio 1270) to get my data because the power analyzing apps are wildly inaccurate. You can get some cheaper $10 USD USB Power Meters off Amazon to do the same measuring. They're not quite as accurate as the one I have but they are good enough for comparison purposes. All of mine will fast wireless charge the S7 but not the V30 (obviously), and even then there's still a lot of variance.

Here are my numbers charging my V30 (LG-H933) in a Spigen Tough Armor case and the Galaxy S7 was in a UAG case.

Galaxy S7 measured: 9.11V @1.08A = 9.84W

LG V30 measured: 8.95V @0.76A = 6.80W

Considering the Belkin charger is going for $80 CAD and out of stock I think I will stick with my old wireless chargers. They're slower but I mainly use it at the bedside table at night so the speed isn't that important. If I need to fast charge it, I'll just plug the cable in. It also sucks the the V30 doesn't have an option in the power settings menu to disable fast charging for wired and wireless like my old S7 does.
[LG V30 Accessories] Wotta:
I have this one also. It's about perfect, in that I have a case on my V30 (US998) and yet just placing the phone on the stand results in decently quick charging. Holds it in a great position, LED is clear and useful. Works great on my S.O.'s G6 in a case also.

BTW, this is a two-coil unit. The extra coils aren't generally for more power, but for more flexible positioning. This just happens to work naturally due to the shape. (Unlike, e.g., a hockey-puck UFO disk.)
[LG V30 Accessories] teknomedic:
Just a quick review on this....

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076JJDZV1/ref=psdc_12557639011_t4_B075CSLSLR

Works great and I'm pleased with it. It's only one coil so you need to be mindful of center placement. I've paired it with a QC 3.0 car charger with new USB-C cable (it notes on the product page that quick charging only happens on USB-C and I have not tested the other port). It will build a charge in the phone with screen on full brightness with Waze and Google Play music streaming via Bluetooth during a drive. It's not super fast, but still builds 1% charge every few minutes (I didn't test actual time, was just happy to build and then maintain a charge of 100% during a recent road trip). It did NOT have have any Bluetooth or GPS interference as some reported and this did not mess with my vehicles built in navigation either.

It's of solid construction and mostly aluminum (sans the wireless charge pad area for obvious reasons). There are non-skid rubber pads in the phone channel as well as each top corner to keep the phone secure on tight turns (if you're using this in a car). The entire base also has a non-skid pad to keep the whole unit in place. The adjustment points are very tight and secure and it holds its set position without worry even in a moving car, but I could see these loosening over time if you continue to re-adjust. Some glue on the hinges would likely fix this if needed though. Finally the charging and power lights on the unit are dim enough to not be a distraction during nighttime driving, but glow just enough so that you know what's going on with the unit.

It's smaller than it looks in pictures, but works well for the V30. One thing to note is the thickness of your case as that might make the phone not sit flush or fully secure. I give it a 9/10 rating only because I wish it had a way to "lock" the positions only because I use it in a car (but it wasn't really meant for that I think) and I wish it had an adjustable "lip" for larger cased phones.
[LG V30 Accessories] adit9989:
Yes but this will charge V30 at standard speed, with or without QC3 adapter. It's not an EPP charger. For wired charging, yes the QC3 charger will fast charge.
[LG V30 Accessories] teknomedic:
Correct and didn't mean to imply otherwise. This is NOT an EPP charger, BUT it will charge a bit faster with USB-C vs mini-USB per the device documentation. My new QC3 charger was not part of the review, I was only stating that's what I paired this device with and reported my charging results with few apps running. Wired directly to the QC3 charger it would charge faster, but then I'd need to attach the cable to the phone and the whole reason I bought a wireless charger for my car was to avoid that. ;)
[LG V30 Accessories] kibmcz:
When I got my V30 I tried my old Nexus 5 wireless charger (didn't work as expected) and with research ended up with https://www.amazon.ca/Wireless-Char...46217&sr=8-1&keywords=sparin+wireless+charger.

Works good full charge from roughly 60%ish in under 2 hours yet to do a full from 20% charge tho.
[LG V30 Accessories] Irish1842:
I wanted to chime in for those who have or are considering Tylt Vu chargers. Just like someone experienced earlier in this thread, I was experiencing a problem with my Vu chargers when I got my V30. With a case on, the phone happens to fall right on a tiny dead zone between charging coils. I put a 1/8" piece of adhesive foam on the ledge of the chargers to raise the phone slightly, and now they work perfectly. Saved me from having to buy three new chargers.
[LG V30 Accessories] uacolon:
Hello All,

Ill start a conspiracy theory with TIN FOIL Hats and all.

Can the below two devices be one and the same? (doppelgangers maybe)

Below is the LG 15 WATT charger announced in 2016.

https://androidcommunity.com/lg-rol...arging-pad-that-juices-up-3x-faster-20161013/

A few months rolled by and Belkin announces their 15 WATT wireless charger. very very similar looking if you ask me...( Works really well with V30+)

http://www.belkin.com/us/p/P-F7U014/
[LG V30 Accessories] ChazzMatt:
It does look the same.

I know a lot of the 3-coil tilt chargers (which I like) are seem to be made by the same company (exactly the same design!) and re-branded by various other companies:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00S7IBDGW

https://www.amazon.com/MoKo-Wireles...1-37&keywords=Qi+Wireless+Charger+Three+Coils

https://www.amazon.com/Spigen-Essen...=1-8&keywords=Qi+Wireless+Charger+Three+Coils

I could show you lots more. Obviously the same tilt charger, even in various colors -- all with different company names.

For this 15 watt flat Qi charger, LG Innotek either licensed out the specs to Belkin or they are manufacturing it for Belkin. LG is a huge conglomerate. LG Display makes displays of course. But

LG Innotek is a component manufacturer who seems to specialize in research and development.

That part of LG is who released the 15 watt Qi wireless charger back in 2016. LG wasn't even using Qi wireless tech in their phones at the time (October 2016) -- but it gave me hope because I knew the early 2017 LG G6 was under development...
[LG V30 Accessories] dakleenupman:
Hello all.... new to the V30 scene but far from new on XDA. Figured I’d chime in with my latest purchase from Amazon to verify that this one will fast charge using the adapter from my V30 and a regular micro USB cable... great price too!

How do you determine if it's fast charging or not? A message or icon?
[LG V30 Accessories] dakleenupman:
Message on the phone, and the onboard LED flashes fast in green.
[LG V30 Accessories] bilbo60:
Could you explain where to look and what the message says. I'm trying to determine if the charger I've got is actually fast charging. Also, which carrier/variant do you have?

Thanks
[LG V30 Accessories] Arcide:
What? I thought the V30 didn't have the notification LED.
[LG V30 Accessories] CHH2:
The message on the phone will say wireless fast charging or something along those lines. If your phone is wirelessly fast charging, you'll know. There's a very high chance that yours is not doing it as so far it has been found few actually put out the current needed to trip it on the V30.

He's talking about the light on is charger. Click through the link and it shows the various patterns.
[LG V30 Accessories] dakleenupman:
The LED on the charging base.
[LG V30 Accessories] bilbo60:
Well,I have this Belkin https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M5JEUYE/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1. It is suppose to be fast charging but I've never seen a message.
[LG V30 Accessories] CHH2:
You'll have to dig through this thread but I thought we established that one doesn't actually fast charge the V30.
[LG V30 Accessories] dakleenupman:
I have the AT&T version.

---------- Post added at 10:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:26 PM ----------

Are you using the supplied AC adapter? Maybe try the phones adapter?
[LG V30 Accessories] bilbo60:
Using the supplied adapter. It can't be changed. Message says "Charging wirelessly" but nothing about fast charging. The only difference is that the time to charge that is displayed in the message is shorter than on my older wireless charger.
[LG V30 Accessories] dakleenupman:
Tried it without a case? The phone should demand the 15W which will put it into fast charging.
[LG V30 Accessories] dakleenupman:
Here’s what the phone shows when in fast charge on wireless charger.
[LG V30 Accessories] bilbo60:
Posts 30 and 31 seem to indicate that it does.

---------- Post added at 12:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:20 PM ----------

Thanks. I'm on Verizon. Definitely haven't seen any thing like that. In the manual, it shows a fast charging icon and a wireless charging icon, but not a fast charging wireless icon.
[LG V30 Accessories] dakleenupman:
Here’s the icon when in fast charging wireless mode. Does your look similar?
[LG V30 Accessories] bilbo60:
Yes it does, and it is only a half circle / lightning bolt on my older wireless charger. So I guess it is fast wirelessly charging. Thanks again.

posting this here also as it's relevant:

Qi wireless has won. Even the competition is going to make a Qi wireless spec 15 watt charging pad. :p Which means it will also work with the LG V30.

Oh, sure, they will also include their "Powermat" specs, but so what. It's like having a tape deck that will play both VHS and home Beta. VHS won that battle. Qi just won this one. Powermat is even joining the Qi consortium.

Powermat joins the Wireless Power Consortium, touts 15-watt underdesk charging

Wireless charging firm Powermat will join an industry consortium it once competed against and announced the Charging Spot 4.0, which will enable 15-watt power transfers and offer compatibility with new iPhones.
