LISEN Magsafe car mount

Magnets are cool

Eagle-eyed viewers of my dongle video noticed a car mount I was using in my LEAF and wanted to know what it was.

My previous car mount had physical arms gripping the phone, but since iPhones have had Magsafe for ages, it seems silly using such a primitive method when magnets are so much cooler! This car mount is stuck onto your dashboard using the adhesive sticker supplied. It seems very hard wearing and rotates and extends a bit so you can angle it as you want. Plug a USB-C cable into the bottom and it'll then wirelessly charge your phone. It needs enough power to do this though, so a USB-C to USB-C cable may not be enough. If you get a 12v USB-C adapter, that'll give it enough juice.
