The EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad provides custom-designed, integrated on-board wireless smartphone charging for the Tesla Model 3. The Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad has been designed and manufactured to fit seamlessly onto the OEM plug-in charging shelf built into Tesla’s Model 3 center console.

EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad provides wireless charging for your smart phone without requiring you to “plug-in” the device. Drop your device onto the pads to charge. Remove it by simply picking it up. Your device is always visible and always charging when it is placed on the pad. Installation requires no tools and provides you with a high-tech, durable accessory that is sure to enhance your driving experience.

*Many new mobile devices (e.g. iPhone X) have built-in Qi wireless charging capability. Older mobile devices can take advantage of Qi wireless charging with a wireless charging case that can be acquired separately at low cost.

The EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad for Tesla Model 3 connects directly to the USB ports that lie inside the center console and under the OEM charging shelf. It allows either one or two smartphones to be charged at the same time.

The Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad is built from high-strength materials and fabricated to the precise dimensions of the OEM charging shelf. The OEM foam cover of the Model 3 charging shelf is removed and the Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad replaces it.

Like all of our products, the EVANNEX^® Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad has been designed by folks who own a Model 3. That means we understand how the current OEM approach works and have tried to offer meaningful improvements. We’ve designed a larger phone ‘bumper’ at the bottom of the platform to stop your device from slipping into the storage box (a common occurrence with the OEM plug-in shelf). To stop your device from sliding during cornering, we developed custom anti-slip surface to hold it in place. The Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad has two orange LED indicators at the bottom of the pad to indicate when charging is occurring for both the right and left side of the pad.

EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad can be installed very quickly without any tools required.

Specifications

EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad for Model 3 makes use of two high efficiency Qi charging coils that use the power from the USB ports positioned under the OEM charging platform and convert it into an inductive charging mechanism for all smartphones equipped for Qi charging and for other smartphones with a special Qi charging case (sold elsewhere) to transfer the charge to the phone.

The specifications for the Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad charging elements are:

Input: DC 5V 2A or 9V 1.67A

Output: DC 5V 1A; DC 9V 1A (Max. 9V 1.1A)

Efficiency: 70-82%

Power: Each charger is capable of 10W charging to accommodate mobile devices with “quick charge” capabilities (e.g., iPhone X at 7.5W)

Transmission distance: 0-5mm

Cabling: USB connector

Once your device battery is fully charged, Qi charging will terminate.

The Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad is constructed from high-strength materials that are cut to the precise dimensions for the OEM charging shelf. It is finished is a soft-feel non-slip surface. Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad is 7.6-in (194mm) wide (at its widest point) and 6.85-in (174mm) high. It is approximately 1/4 in. (6mm) thick. The bottom phone bumper is 0.5-in. (12.7mm) high.

Although the sizes of mobile devices keeps changing (and growing) our Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad can accommodate the majority of standard sizes available, Qi-capable smart phones from all manufacturers and the vast majority of plus-size smart phones (e.g., iPhone 7+, 8+, XS, XR as well as most larger Samsung models and the plus size models of other manufacturers. To be certain that your phone + case can be accommodated, their combined dimensions should not exceed 6.375 in. H x 3.25 in. W x 0.5 in. T (162 mm H x 82 mm W x 12.5 mm T).

The Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad has two orange LED indicators at the bottom of the pad to indicate when charing is occurring for both the right and left side of the pad.

Please note that a few recent plus-size smartphones (e.g., Samsung Note 9) are very close to the maximum allowable dimension.

FAQ

What are the advantages of wireless charging?

Consider the following scenario: You’re driving and realize that your smart phone battery is very low. If you use the OEM plug-in charging shelf in your Model 3, you’ll have to slide the phone onto the platform, align it properly with the mini connector, slide it downward to insert the charging connector—all while trying to keep your eyes on the road. With EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad, you simply place your device on the platform and you’re charging it. That’s a good thing for those who are safety conscious and want to keep their eyes on the road.

Is my phone capable of wireless charging using EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad?

Any smartphone that has Qi wireless charging capability should work with EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad. In addition, any smartphone that has a special case with a Qi wireless charging receiver (purchased separately) should be capable of wireless charging using Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad. We have tested the pad with the Apple iPhone models and with a variety of Samsung Models that support Qi Wireless charging and/or have a special case with a Qi wireless charging receiver.

Can I use my phone while it’s charging with the Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad?

Although we strongly recommend against using your device while you’re driving, you can use your phone while its charging. For example, incoming and outgoing calls and (voice) texts can be processed while Qi charging.

Will I be able to see the display of my device while its Qi Charging.

Driving is an eyes-busy, hands-busy activity. Your eyes should remain on the road and your hands on the steering wheel (even when Autopilot is engaged). Having said that, you will be able to see your device display while it’s wirelessly charging.

How long does it take to install EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad?

The EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad is ready to install out of the box (no assembly is required). Installation should take about 2-5 minutes.

Are any tools required?

No.

Do I need to assemble EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad before I install it?

No. EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad comes fully assembled and ready to install out of the box. We provide both written and video installation instructions.

Do I have to remove the foam pad that sits on the OEM charging platform?

Yes, but that’s very easy. The pad is not glued down and can be removed easily with your fingers. EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad has the same dimensions as the foam pad and is then placed in exactly the same position.

Do I need to remove the existing mini-plug (for wired charging) that is currently installed on the OEM charging platform?

Yes. It’s quite easy to remove the mini-plug by sliding the gloss black ‘bumper’ on the bottom of the OEM charging platform to the left and then remove the mini-plug and cabling. The entire operation takes less than a minute.

Does EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad interfere with the opening/closing of the door that covers the OEM charging shelf.

Absolutely not. The door opens and closes normally.

Where does EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad get its power?

From the USB ports that sit conveniently below the OEM charging platform. Just swivel the platform upward and the USB ports are accessible. EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad wiring for USB passes conveniently through an existing opening in the OEM charging platform, so no special routing of cables is required.

Does EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad use one or both of the OEM USB ports?

If both chargers are in use, EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad makes use of both ports. However, you can acquire a USB Male to Dual USB Female Jack Y Splitter Charger Cable, (available for under $5.00 at Amazon) thereby allowing one OEM USB port to remain free for other uses.

Can EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad accommodate larger phones as well as more standard-sized models?

Although the sizes of mobile devices keep changing (and growing) the EVANNEX Qi Charger can accommodate all stardard-size smart phones from all manufacturers and the vast majority of plus-size smart phones (e.g., iPhone 7+, 8+, XS and XR as well as most larger Samsung models and the models of other manufacturers. If your phone + case is 6.375 in. H x 3.25 in. W x 0.5 in. T (162 mm H x 82 mm W x 12.5 mm T), the EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad can accommodate it. Please note that a few recent plus-size smartphones (e.g., Samsung Note 9) are very close to the maximum allowable dimension and may be a tight fit.

What are the specifications of the Qi charging electronics?

Go to our Specifications Tab for more details.

Isn’t it true that Qi chargers charge a smartphone more slowly than plug-in charging?

That is true, but wireless (Qi) charging is far more convenient in driving situations. There are many factors that affect wireless charging speeds: (1) the type of smartphone you have; (2) the type of protective phone case you use; (3) the apps you use and the degree to which they use battery capacity, and (4) the signal strength of your cellular connection (the degree to which your phone must work to acquire and hold a signal). In addition, Qi chargers built to fit the geometry of the Model 3 phone charging space must by their nature be relatively thin so that they will properly fit the space. Inherently, this reduces the overall strength of the inductive field for Qi charging when compared to, say, larger desktop Qi chargers.

Can EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad accommodate mobile devices with “Quickcharge” capability?

Yes, although there are a number of different variants of “Quickcharge” with new variants being introduced regularly. The EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad supports 7.5W charging, so it is compatible with many mobile devices that provide quick charge capability.

Does the EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad have some way of indicating that charging is happening.

Yes. The Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad has two orange LED indicators at the bottom of the pad to indicate when charing is occurring for both the right and left side of the pad.

My smartphone doesn’t have wireless charging capability built-in. Can I still use EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad in my Model 3?

Yes, but you’ll have to buy a wireless charging case for your phone. Wireless charging cases are designed for specific phones, so you’ll have to select the right one for your phone. Amazon is a good source—search “wireless charging phone cases.” You plug your phone into a mini-charging plug that’s built into the case and you’re good to go. The case encapsulates the electronics required to couple with the EVANNEX Dual Qi Wireless Charging Pad.

Are there any troubleshooting tips you have if I’m having issues getting my Qi charger working?

In the ‘Installation’ tab, see the last page of the ‘Instructions’ for common troubleshooting tips.

I’ve read reports that some smartphones can become quite warm during Qi charging. Is there anything I can do to prevent that?

Some smartphone brands do become warm or even hot when charging, regardless of whether the charge is a hardwired connection or a Qi charge. This varies from manufacturer to manufacturer, so it is difficult to address the question specifically. In some cases, the use of a specific app, such as a GPS-oriented app while charging, can cause the phone to become warm or even hot. In other cases, leaving the phone on the charge pad for long periods of time can also cause heating. In the unlikely event you feel your phone becoming warm or hot during charging we recommend removing it, allowing it to cool, and then continuing charging later.
