Ikea wireless chargers work well, but can not destroy the assembly table.

We tried a few wireless chargers Ikea, which can change the view of this convenient way to charge mobile phones. They work well, but be careful when installing. With inexpensive gear rim can easily destroy the desk or nightstand.

Ikea has included in its bid a relatively broad range of wireless chargers. It is the first major world leader  among manufacturers of handsets and accessories, which dropped into this range. Chargers correspond Qi standard , which supports most smartphones with wireless charging.


On the furniture trade as desktop charger for one to three devices, chargers integrated into lamp and two bedside tables with installed chargers. The sale also includes two modules for installation.
We tried a desk lamp varvá Nordmark and pad for one unit. Reassemble the lamp is a question of a few minutes, then you can only be connected to the mains and the charger is ready for use. At the pad is the same, there is not even what to mount. In both cases, the charger still integrated USB port for connecting another device via cable.
Universally for all pads, the cross on their phones, laying rubber, non-slip backing so after even hold despite a slight tilt, although it is more of a theoretical option. There is no problem to charge mobile phone inserted into the housing. We tried the Samsung Galaxy S6 edge in the original cover and charge were the same as without cover. Charging time is slightly longer than in conventional charger supplied with the phone, but not significantly. For pads and modules are relatively large adapter.

Some phones that have integrated wireless charging, or have just built coil offers Ikea covers. For Samsung are just plastic back, then the whole iPhone covers with integrated wireless charging. One of them we tried. Again, it works without problems, but the cover does not really elegant and although it can be on the phone constantly (it has a hole for the lens) and the more it pays to have a table ready for charging.

For installation Ikea has two modules. Larger called Jyssen and a minor indication Morikami (both including the hidden USB port). The latter for some reason Ikea does not promote at all, but you can find it in stores and is about 100 crowns cheaper than Jyssen, which costs 799 crowns. Ikea module Morikami then used for two tables Nordli and Selje, which already sells pre-drilled hole. Mounting the charger is then a matter of a few minutes, just a screwdriver. Module Jyssen larger diameter then fits into a bushing in some Ikea table.

However, a different situation arises when a charger, you might want to install another table, nightstand or other furniture. It is possible and Ikea says it directly as a priority modules. For drill hole Ikea has prepared a set of boring gear rims, which is called Fixa and costs 129 crowns. But to 29.4. He did not have in stock.
We tried mounting the module Morikami. The diameter of the body of the charger is 56 mm and the height of the module is fixed, so for thicker countertops is unusable and you have to use thinner pads.

Diameter 56 mm is the value that they have boring wreaths in many cheap sets. We first try nameless set for 55 crowns and really have been burned. Hole had managed to drill a hole, but did not hold a soft wreath shape and drilled Cone. The result was terrible and we have to enlarge the hole and converted into a conduit.
For the second experiment, we chose a set of boring WOLFCRAFT wreaths at around 190 crowns and a pad we used old shelf in the closet. And there was a wreath with a diameter of 56 mm, with whom he has managed to create a clean and precise hole. But little practice is needed to hole a millimeter more. At subsequent magnification rasps but great risk to damage the veneer or laminate surface on the table.

It is ideal ring gear or a hole saw with a diameter of 57 mm, a dimension which is not cheap sets wreaths usual. Bosch offers him, but then set stands almost alone charger, or can be purchased alone holesaw with this average, but its price ranges from 250 crowns above. Additionally, you can buy it only in specialized stores.
We recommend that you wait for Fixa kit that costs 129 crowns, or assemble larger module Jyssen. He has a ring around the opening, which cover inaccuracies when boring hole. And definitely do not recommend unbranded cheap, boring wreaths. Tabletop with them can be irreparably damaged.
