Thought I'd share; printed on a 3D printer and using an off the shelf Belkin charger costing £20

Excellent! I have searched for something like this before and was surprised to find nothing available, I thought someone would be making them.

Does the phone stay well enough aligned to charge when the driving gets spirited?

Nice job! Does just sit above the 12v socket?

Good comments, thanks.

A few answers: I've not tried it with 'spirited driving' and suspect some mod would be required to keep the phone in place

I can make the patterns available on Thingiverse if anybody has access to a 3D printer. I'll have a think about printing/making more, covering cost, though likely to be a few quid only plus postage

I believe it will work with Samsung phones; this is the wireless charger I used without modification, it just sits snugly in the printed frame and plugs into the cigarette charger via a (Belkin) usb charger
