Magsafe Chargers that work through the thick Quadlock case? [dont buy an anker cube!]

Huge quad lock fan. Nothing better for mountain biking, imho.

I've been using an Anker 313 wireless charging stand for my iPhone 11, but just upgraded to the iPhone 15. I wanted to try that Standby mode, so I bought an Anker Cube. Well, the quad lock case is too thick.

Is there a group thread of chargers that actually work through the case?

The Anker 313 works, but only vertical, not horizontal. The Anker cube does not work in any orientation.

Just tested missos phone 13 pro max with quadlock mag case. It charges with apple magsafe charger, an "Eastele" wireless charger, and an "Anker" wireless charger I have here. I also have a "Fantasy" branded charger it doesn't work on. Quality of the charger seems to be a factor

Apple specifies 2mm for magsafe, and quad lock case is 4.2mm. I have no idea how they can justify calling it magsafe. I guess because the magnetic portion works?

Just last Friday, my friend dangled my phone off his magsafe charger (pixel 7a) then did it to his iPhone with no case on it, and my pixel with the quad lock held on much better somehow

The apple puck does work, but I had one time in a half dozen tries where it magnetically latched then didn't charge. I'd always check and make sure I got the charge symbol.

Argh, just received the cube to find the same issue. Thanks OP for your post - at least I know it’s not just me! Back to the drawing board…

Belkin wireless charging stand 10w works, but only after switching to a more powerful power adapter the the original that comes with the charger.

Details in this thread.

My Pixel 7a quadlock mag case is so thick and heavy. So annoying. Might just use the case for when I mount it on my bike. Otherwise I'll use a thinner mag case for everyday and mounting in the car.

Can anyone recommend a bedside charger (stand or flat) for the MagSafe case and iPhone Pro Max?

I am using the quad lock one. It works really well. Sticky base and easy to put phone on and take it off.

Thanks, I just bought another mag charging head for the car, and will screw this to the side of bedside table. Bam! Done.
