New Nomad delivered today

[Goosby]

I don’t have the Nomad charger in my car, but I don’t see any reason it wouldn’t work with a stick on wallet; however, all of the wireless chargers I have purchased explicitly state not to have credit card(s)/anything with a chip and/or mag strip between the phone and charger when wireless charging or you could ruin the card(s), etc. Could become a hassle depending on your charging frequency/number of cards stored. I’ve personally never had an issue the couple times I’ve forgotten about a card in my phone case when I wirelessly charge, but I try to not let it happen and it’s never been for a long period of time. Maybe someone smarter than I can say whether it’s actually an issue, or just legal boiler plate language slapped on wireless chargers to cover against edge cases.

That’s funny, mine didn’t come with the splitter cables......rather they sent a $5 bill.

Mine came with a typewritten note to not worry the splitters are on the way,

random question for nomad users - do they work with phone cases, or just nude phones? what about stick-on wallets?

I have a RokForm case and it works fine.

Reviving a dead thread. I finally started using my Nomad but I find it very difficult to raise the part of the console holding the Nomad to reach the USB ports without hitting resistance. Do I have mine installed wrong??

No, it’s installed fine. Unfortunately, for whatever reason the usb cables aren’t as long as they should be. Not sure if they fixed that issue with newer versions?

You can remove the Nomad from the botttom part of the lid and slide it down an inch to allow yourself more room to get to the USB ports. Worked for me.

I also use this USB hub: https://www.amazon.com/Sabrent-Premium-Aluminum-Rotatable-HB-R3MC/dp/B013XGK53E

To plug in both the cables on my V1 Nomad. It rotates and you are able to lift the tray about 80% of the way.

Compare nomad to taptes, which is better? My friend got a taptes but I'm worried about its quality and thinks it won't last long

have you tested the charging speed?

 

[pete8314]

We tested the two types of Qi charger we sell (one of which is the Nomad, these were the results over 3 tests, with phone battery levels of 40, 60 & 80%:

Definitely going to grab a Nomad eventually but back ordered for about a month it seems. I guess I should order now but I want the car first.

What splitter is everyone using to use Dashcam/Sentry mode with the Nomad?

They send you splitters with the nomad.

They send you splitters with the nomad.

Even better!

It’s a great product and a must have if you have wireless charging phones.

Has anyone purchased the new RPM Tesla charging pad? It also looks very similar to the Nomad but at a cheaper price.

I am on the fence on whether to gamble on the RPM Tesla version, or go with the significantly more expensive Nomad version.

I've been having an issue with my v1 Nomad where the charging pad (along with my dashcam/music USB drive on a splitter) fail to be recognized/turn on after parking at work on 70 degree days. I'm assuming this is some kind of thermal shutdown feature, but if that's the case then it's too sensitive to heat for this application in my opinion. I haven't seen this issue previously, but then again, I received it in November.

I've e-mailed Nomad support, just curious if anyone else has seen this happening yet.

 

[Cnasty]

I have multiple Nomad products and they are all top notch and quality.

Hoping this one is the same as I am getting my car Saturday and in line for whenever this ships.

 

[Mark Steward]

do not buy from nomad or jeda. I have both of them. Both of them get all those scratches after less than 3 months. And both of the two chargers are so sick. My friend has a samsung s9 and it's too big for those two pads.

I would stay away from anything they offer. Do a search on here or Reddit.........
