Are there any good mounts or mounting ideas for a wireless charger in a LC200? I want to have a stable option that can charge while my Vline V2 is in use. Heard they use extra power. Want something that looks nice.

Here’s my home grown one. ESR MagSafe mount and ram. Any head that uses the modern small ball like ESR has or Garmin uses will work. If there is interest I can give a part listing
@*cboyd have you tested this on rough roads?
My wife has the pro clip version and it works great for around town. But I can't imagine it will hold if on the rough trails
the proclip even has a small tab/base for the bottom of the phone. If it had some side support it might work
I tested how fast the batteries charge.
The Mag safe needs an apple power outlet that plugs into the wall for maximum charge.
I used a high Amp car charger and it worked well. I forgot the number
But a USB-C to Lightning using the high amp car charger had the highest charge rate.
But you have to have a high amp cigarette lighter USB-C
there are battery charging detection apps for the phone and they will tell you the rate of charge

i made one up of different parts, but after it was all done, i found this one online that basically did all i did right out of the box. it uses the cup holder in the center console.
Amazon product ASIN B08T95LBMF
it uses the cigarette lighter for dc power, so it can do the fast charging
i DO miss having a 2nd cupholder though....why are there only two cupholders in the front of an lx570???
as far as offroading, the one i use has a tightening mechanism to grab the cup holder well. i suppose i could put a rubber band around the phone/holder if the phone was falling out.

On rough roads the MagSafe will not hold your phone. Especially the max versions of the iPhones.
Maybe a solution for motorcycles is a option for you like SpConmect?

I have the combination of the case and the qi charger since nearly 15.000km on my Africa Twin in use and it works pretty fine.

Simple MagSafe charger that i mounted to a Scosche magnet. It has a rubbery texture that really holds well to the leather MagSafe Apple case on my 13max. Hasn’t come off even on some pretty hard hits off-road. Mag safe will hold very well if you have a MagSafe case. I would recommend it.
