Product Information

There's no definitive evidence that it's harmful. You may worry the phone's battery might degrade faster with wireless charging, but manufacturers set safe limits for phone batteries, stipulating how much a battery can be charged and how far it can discharge. Regardless of the charging source you use, whether you plug into a wall adapter or use a wireless charging pad, these limits can’t be overridden. There’s no risk of overcharging your phone by leaving it on a wireless charger all night. Slow and steady is key here. If you go through the other side, your table is ruined. Whitson Gordon Wireless charging isn't nearly as cool as it sounds. It's not exactly wireless—a cord runs from an outlet to the charging pad—and it won't charge your smartphone faster than plugging it in with a good ol’ cord. Still, I'm always disappointed when I test a smartphone that doesn't support it. I've gotten used to simply plopping my phone down on a pad every night, and fishing for a cable in the dark feels like a chore. It's pure convenience more than anything else. This Solid Wood Wireless Charger is compatible with any Qi-enabled device. This includes the iPhone 8 to 12, Google Pixel, and Samsung Galaxy devices, giving you access to universal wireless charging that can work with all of the phones in your household.

There are a lot of wireless chargers. Here are a few more we like, but for one reason or another don't warrant a place above. Fast charge times are important, and this device is able to achieve some of the best wireless charging speeds on the market thanks to its 10W power output. Compatability

Is wireless charging faster?

Choose a table. Obviously, you’ll need a surface to convert to a wireless charger. I used this end table I had in my office, since it was cheap enough that I didn’t have to worry about ruining it if I messed up. You can use any table you have on hand, though I wouldn’t necessarily do this with a valuable family heirloom. Alternatively, you could build your own table or computer desk and integrate these steps into the process. Stands will prop your device up so you can watch videos or glance at incoming notifications while you work and will more than likely have additional space for watches and earbuds to recharge at the same time. Is a wireless charger worth it?

See what your table is made of. Head out to your workspace and put something soft down so your table doesn’t scratch against the ground. Then flip your table over, grab your chisel, and hammer it into the underside just a little bit, prying it up to see what’s inside. This is how I discovered that my table, like many inexpensive tables, was made of extremely cheap particle board—almost like cardboard—that came apart pretty easily. Some tables are nothing but honeycomb cardboard inside, which would make this project incredibly simple. Handcrafted, this Solid Wood Wireless Charger is a great choice for those who want their electronics to meld seamlessly into their decor. Wooden Phone Charger Test fit, and keep carving if necessary. Once you get deep enough, see if your charging pad fits flush in the hole—you may find you need to take a bit more off the sides. Again, it doesn’t have to look perfect. If your table is anything like mine, it’ll be pretty difficult to get a clean edge, so just make it functional. A discrete port can be found on the rear of the charger, making it easy to subtly integrate this product into your home. This Solid Wood Wireless Charger is available in Walnut and Oak variants.

Updated August 2023: We added chargers from Belkin, OtterBox, Xiaomi, Courant, and Nomad, removed some discontinued chargers, and updated prices. The issue when buying wireless chargers isn’t the cost, but actually whether they are Qi-certified or not. If it’s got a Qi-certified stamp on it (the Chinese word for “energy flow“, do you get the metaphor?), then you know it’s got the charging standard stamp of approval by an electricity safety board to not start sparking and overheating as soon as you use it. The solid wood construction of this wireless charger makes it stand out from the crowd, giving you the chance to transform your bedside, desk, or wherever else you use your wireless charger into something far more beautiful. Note: There are a few ways to attach your charging pad to the underside of your table, but I went with hot glue—it’s easy and strong while remaining removable if you have to adjust things.
