Do you know what peak temp the battery gets up to with that wireless charger? I stopped using my charger when I saw the temp get up to 114 deg.... I want to preserve my battery longevity for as long as possible.
I wanted to look it up before I replied to this but even 114 doesn't seem TOO high to me.
"Lithium-ion cells with cobalt cathodes (same as the recalled laptop batteries) should never rise above 265°F. At 302°F the cell becomes thermally unstable, a condition that can lead to a thermal runaway in which flaming gases are vented."
-Battery University re: Lithium Ion batteries in general
I understand wanting the battery in a phone that is non removalble to last as long as possible, but in my non-professional opinion, 114 isn't going to destroy it. Not to mention the phone WILL (should) shut off if it ever gets too hot...
No. It won't destroy it, but concerned the temp will adversely affect it. I reached out to Motorola support a month or so ago about the safe temp range on a qi charger and they didn't have any spec's to share.

All wireless chargers produce much more heat than using a standard charger. 114 is really not that hot. Run Google maps for more than 10 minutes and you'll likely notice similar temps.
That's true.. These devices do have a thermal protection built in.. (they shut off).. But the device seems to get warmer when hooked up to the turbo charger..
I didn't get the $70 one. Mine was $45. Just as good as the $70 I'll bet.
Not to mention, less wear and tear on the connector. I guess you never had a loose or broken USB port?

Are you sure that is the battery temp and not the phone temp? It seems quite low for a wireless charger. My battery reached 107.5 on the Turbo charger. I suppose that can be a factor related to ambient room temp.
Did you click my link in post #38?
Now, if the program isn't accurate, I have no clue. I always thought you had to have root to get this info, but apparently not?!?!
