Types of wireless charging devices
You can’t afford to find yourself on the last 5% of your battery too often so wireless charging is now being built into a lot of phones to make the whole process of charging easier and more convenient.
Below is a selection of wireless charging options available.
Charging pads
This technology allows you to install a flat pad in your car that you simply place your phone on. Easy huh? Check that the design of your car allows enough room for this format. Our weFit service means that for £30 one of our experts can fit the pad for you so that it integrates beautifully with your car. No messy and ugly wires showing! An alternative is to plug it into the cigarette lighter or another USB port available.
Our ultra-thin Connects2 Universal In-Car Charging Pad can be used in your car, office or home with Qi-compatible products.
Charging pockets
Charging pockets are a really neat way to charge your device as they can be hidden easily. Our £30 weFit service will fit the Connects2 Universal In-Car Charging Pocket for you either in the glove box, armrest, side pocket or any workable flat surface. You simply drop your phone into the pocket and the spring loaded mechanism means your phone is held securely while you’re on the move. The pocket also features two USB ports allowing you to charge other devices at the same time.
Car specific charging
This is the most integrated option and is dependent on your vehicle. The charger is built in to replace the coin tray in most cases. This is a great value for money option as it can mean spending only 10% of what it may have cost you if the dealer had fitted it when you bought the car. It also looks great!
Our experts have all the skills and knowledge to fit the right configuration for your vehicle. Our weFit service is only £30 and is quick and easy. Find the right charging kit for your car here. These products are specific to your vehicle type, and Halfords will be keeping an eye on the vehicle demands and extending the range accordingly.
Mounted chargers
These types of chargers are useful if you like to have your phone visible whilst you’re driving, for Sat Nav App handsfree, for example. The Belkin Boost Up Wireless Charging Car Universal Mount attaches to the dashboard or window and is adjustable to your device. Check the product details for which phones it’s compatible with, as if yours is not included you will need to invest in an adaptor for your device.
