Qi charger desk stand/placement aid that glows in the dark

prusaprinters

<p>This is a Qi charger desk stand designed for easily placing the phone on, exposing that beautiful gyroid infill and glowing in the dark.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Why?</strong></p><p>Using a Qi charger pad to wirelessly charge a mobile phone makes life easier. At home we have two of those square shaped older ones from Samsung (link below), and it occasionally doesn't charge if the phone isn't aligned perfectly. Wireless charging should give user the convenience of just dropping off the phone without even looking at it. Double checking if the phone is charging or not ruins the whole experience. The intention for the design is to improve this situation.</p><p>Additionally, if you print it from glow-in-the-dark filament, you can easily locate your phone in the night for a quick scroll in your favorite feed.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Printing Recommendations:</strong></p><p>Design is uploaded in two pieces, the part that the charger and phone rests on is printed with solid pattern, the other piece should be added as a modifier to expose %100 gyroid infill. Experiment with line distance according to how big you want your gyroids to be. The print shown has a rather smaller line distance, but I think it would look cooler if we increased it.</p><p>Filament: Extrudr PETG glow in the dark<br>(here I would really recommend PETG or some other material that is more resistant to heat to avoid melting as sometimes phones become very hot while charging)</p><p>Qi charger:<br>Samsung Wireless Charge Pad Mini at home, like this here: <a href="https://www.amazon.ca/Samsung-Mini-Wireless-Charging-Black/dp/B00IZLEZE8">https://www.amazon.ca/Samsung-Mini-Wireless-Charging-Black/dp/B00IZLEZE8</a><br>Dimensions - 73.6 x 73.6 x 9.2mm (W x H x D)</p><p>Mobile Phone: Samsung Galaxy S8<br>&nbsp;</p>
