    This charging tray can't really be useful at all for the many of us that use their phone like a 'garmin'. That is...with a magnetic (or other) phone mount up near dash level ( and plugged into a charger..of course ) (y). In this case it seems like a waste of space?

    Yah, the charger is too weak and not of use if you have phone on dash, but the space can still be used as coin and other small item holder.:D

    I bought one of them - YellowStone brand on someone's recommendation. Trouble is, it keeps shutting off the connection to my phone - it's got a button which sometimes will get it going again for a while - but I read that they've got some "clever" software inside - too clever for it's own boots, and it happens reasonably frequently according to GOOGLE.
