The [Choetech Circle Qi Wireless Charger](http://www.amazon.com/Lighting-Wireless-Charger-Samsung-Qi-Enabled/dp/B013AB620C) is retailing for **US$19.99 (S$29)** on Amazon. As the product name suggests, it charges Qi-enabled device or device equipped with a Qi-compatible cover. It takes in 5V/2A and output 5V/1A.

The wireless charger weighs 64g and measures approximately the size of a coffee cup coaster (84mm x 84mm x 18mm). It is metallic silver in color.

It has a nice indicator light around the charger that turns blue when it is charging. There is a built-in lightning sensor on the wireless charger that will automatically dim/turn off the indicator light when the room is dark. I tested it and it works well as shown in the Instagram video below.

There is a rubberize anti-slip ring around the top and bottom of the charger which gives the phone a good grip against the charger and the charger against the table.

So far I have two wireless chargers, the [Anker Ultra-Slim Qi-Enabled Wireless Charging Pad](https://lesterchan.net/blog/2014/04/30/anker-ultra-slim-qi-enabled-wireless-charging-pad/) and the [Nokia Wireless Charging Stand (DT-910)](https://lesterchan.net/blog/2014/07/31/nokia-wireless-charging-stand-dt-910/).

All the wireless chargers basically do the same thing which is to wirelessly charge your Qi-enabled device. Most wireless charger output a maximum of 1A. The thing that differentiates Choetech Circle Qi Wireless Charger from the rest of my wireless chargers is basically the indicator ring light which adds a cool factor.
