Car charging solution needed.. - Transformer TF300T General

I will be installing my TF300T permanently in my truck. I need to be able to charge the pad as the truck runs and while I use it.
What are my options? If I had come across these charging issues prior to buying, I wouldn't have..

Get a DC to AC adapter with a cooling solution then plug an extra TF300t charging adapter and cable into that:

I can do that.. Is that the best option? Versus maybe something like this?

I'd prefer to have it constantly charging.. I'm afraid an inverter is too risky for draining the battery...

What? you mean sound pressure turns into electrical impulses, that charge the kaiser. I shout at my phone, and she lives, she lives.
I want one of these!!!
nah retard, a bluetooth enabled speaker dock that one can plug in ones phone to charge. doesnt even have to be bluetooth if it can use the usb port for its sound input.
Hey. Be nice We're all respected people and adults here (Well im not an adult but still ) No I don't think a device like that exists yet because you'd have to output your tilt's energy which could short out the phone so I don't think you should even try that.

Isn't this essentially the same idea?

The only difference is a speaker cradle would get its sound from the righthand connector (HTC D-style), and supply charging to the lefthand one (standard mini-USB).
I think he meant the speaker cradle would have a wall plug

Any one have the Zens Dual Qi Charger in UK

I just bought the Zens Dual Qi charger in the UK for use in the US. Any have the UK version could you let me know the electrical plug type and voltage input? (also if possible the input requirement of the Pad itself, I do not think it required 220V to work) Could I adapt it to use here in the US or am I out of luck. I still have a bit of time to cancel my order.

Tried the Energizer dual charger one, but it is oh so crappy, it requires precise location to work.
Found the answer from another post, I will re-post it for other to see

So, after staying in backlog at most sites I now canceled all of them and decided to order one directly through www.zensshop.com. It was shipped the day after I ordered it and I got it in a day. Did a small photoshoot of the unpack:

The charger is 100-240V, so should work almost everywhere. I believe they are not associated to Maxell, as Maxell is a relatively big company that has just recently launched it, whereas Zens already has their chargers up and running for 2 years. I believe they were the first in Europe, so probably Maxell was inspired by them. I think the design is great and the positioning is very good. You can just put it on the charger and unlike the Energizer ones; it doesn't really matter where you put it. Also it's not under an angle, so your Nexus 4 won't drop off. I am very happy with mine, so good luck finding yourself one if they haven't sold out yet

Thanks LG, this is WAY more useful than a good qi car charging dock. Next can we get an an official led-lit USB cable while we wait for actual accessories we might WANT to use?

$140 to charge your phone?!?! HELL **** NO!!!!!!. Amazing thing is, there are dumb enough people out there to buy it.
too expensive
I think this was aimed at someone who sits at a nice oak desk inside of a plush office all day (lawyer, corporate big wig). Overpriced? Yea more than a little bit when there's cheaper alternatives. Wanna see what dumb people buy? http://www.amazon.com/CTA-Digital-i...0340&sr=8-6&keywords=ipad+potty+training+seat

It's been rather hit or miss with car chargers. Have a look over here: http://www.droid-life.com/2015/10/19/nexus-6p-nexus-5x-quick-charge/ As you can see, you might get really good results with that, or you might not. I've had good results with their products, so I personally wouldn't be overly concerned. The point is though - we won't know until someone tries it and reports the results back.
If you're buying through Amazon, you can always return it. Go get the Ampere app from the play store, plug it in to that charger, and if you're not satisfied with the results, send it back.
I suggest the tronsomart. It's not true 3A but it'll be good enough.
Good
many one are using this charger and it is really a good one for long drive.
I can confirm it the 6P does at least display the "Charging Rapdily" message when using this charger though it won't take advantage of the 3A the 6p can handle. Seems to work fine.

The only problem with this is that you need to have a case to hold the darn thing on. And if you want to use the USB C port then you must remove the case, then the device attached, in this case the wireless pad, and repeat the process when you want wireless charging again. I'd like to see one that just temporarily attaches to the wireless charger with a C plug easily accessible. Nonetheless, if you can deal with the gyrations you need to go thru then it's a good idea and relatively inexpensive.

Agreed it is a pain. I use this on my Pixel 2XL. I don't use the usb-c port for anything other than charging (and occasionally usb-c headphones but I mainly stick to bluetooth headphones/earbuds) and it works just fine. Yes you do need to keep a case on it which is no big deal for me because I always keep a case on my phone. If you want to use the phone sans case then you'll need to remove the wireless pad as well; no big deal really. I would LOVE it if the Pixel 4a would have the option of wireless charging. Here's hoping.
