Wireless Charging mats for most devices.

Allyall

I think these are good deals.
Duracell charging mat can charge up to 4 devices at once.

Duracell myGrid Mobile Device Charging Pad £8

You will also need the right case for your phone, which some people have said, may not fit into your car handsfree kit.

Duracell myGrid Power Sleeve (All £4)

iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS
iPhone 4 - Currently out of stock
iPod Touch
BlackBerry Curve
Nokia Mobile Phones
BlackBerry Pearl
Mini USB Power Clip

Also seems a good deal.

Wireless Charger
This seems a better idea/charger, but the case/back for the iPhone 4 is more expensive at the moment. (£23.35 vs £4.00 above). All other devices are pretty cheap though..

Powermat Home and Office Mat - £14.95

Powermat Portable - £14.25



Powermat Receivers

They range from £3.70 (iPhone 3G/3GS) to £23.35 (iPhone 4)
They have receivers for DSi, Powercube (Portable Mini USB adapter), Blackberry phones, and apple universal docks.

Also worth mentioning is
iPhone 4 case + Powermat (either) + Powercube = £30.18

How do these things work?
Why do you need a case?

1. Induction.
2. They're not magic chargers.

Wonder would these work on the HP touchpad and Palm Pre 3 as they both have induction capabilities?

Magic, but won't a direct wired charge get you there quicker ?

The ikea is that u just drop the phone on the mat, your not search for cables to use. Its no slower the using a cable, it's just for convenience

More-or-less, but it means that you have a single mat placed somewhere for all your devices rather than five or six chargers. Still new tech, give it a few years and they'll standardise it and most new devices will come induction-compatible and you won't need an adapter or a case.

Thanks OP been looking for a couple of my grids for a while now

banchang

Just did the sums - it starts getting expensive when you have to buy a sleeve for every device you want to put on the mat ?

What about searching for cables to charge your charger?

Even the pre touchstone wont charge a touchpad, the touchstone is more complicated than you'd think there is a two way communication between the devices at 3.1MHz and 6MHz and also the charging frequency is unlikely to be the same 118.5kHz.
