I have a Qi charger and it works OK for its purpose. I thought it would be possible to install it under a table without cutting a big hole. However, my testing shows this isn't possible, at least with the model I have. It's an Insignia 15watt model. It's supposed to have 3 coils of 5 watts each. I've found that I can only lift the phone a few millimeters above the induction coils before it stops charging.
All the furniture mounted models I've seen require a huge hole for their induction coil and you set your device on that.
I was thinking of buying the raw coils with power controller, but I don't want to waste too much time with that if it isn't going to work.
Any thoughts?
