Nexus 5 Magnetic Charging Car Dock

thingiverse

Magnetic car dock for Nexus 5 transforms standard phone car mounts into wireless qi charging surfaces without altering center icon placement. Installing four neodymium magnets, 1/2 by 1/8 inch in size, and a QI charging PCB are crucial initial steps. Install four N48, 1/2 by 1/8 inch neodymium magnets and a Qi charging PCB in standard phone car mount. Connect charger, then position your phone on the magnetic surface. With a Bluetooth receiver in your car, you can establish a connection with Tasker to activate Car Mode and employ apps like Torque or Car Home Ultra to enhance your smartphone experience. Using a magnetic sensor in Tasker, start Car Home Ultra if a magnetic field exceeds a specific threshold while in landscape orientation. Plasti-dip is recommended for the front surface to provide additional friction between phone and dock before initial use.
