All power problems solved! Also fyi you can also purchase this exact ESR charger with their own included charging adapter for about $10 more, as a kit.
My set up includes mounting the ESR charger to the ball end of a flexible metal gooseneck and it works great. I had to wrap a bit of electrical tape around the ball end to make my ESR charger fit tightly. This gooseneck has a big spring clamp at the end and can work great for any DIY install. I purchased it locally at a computer store but I believe this is the same one here on Amazon:

I would not recommend mounting this charger to a vent, especially because this magnet is super strong. I use an ESR MagSafe compatible case, see picture. It works and holds super strong on to the ESR charger, it is not going anywhere!
So everything has been working great except for one thing. If you're like me, you are constantly switching back and forth between Portrait and Landscape orientation. Every time I rotated it, the magnetic strength was so strong it would begin to rotate and unloosen the entire charger from the ball mount. Very frustrating. At first my solution was to stick on one of those charging metal rings on the back of my phone case, on top of the already existing ESR MagSafe ring built into the case. Because this provided a harder, smoother surface to rotate on as opposed to the soft plastic case material. This worked okay but the more I thought about it, I wondered why there was always so much friction when there shouldn't be any on the smooth glass surface of the charger. Upon further inspection, I figured out that the friction was being caused by this tiny black plastic lip that surrounds the outer edge of the entire glass surface of the charger. I am talking only about .5mm in height above the surface of the glass. You can feel it with your fingernail. This is what the case surface has actually been resting on, not the glass! Is this a defect? I don't know. But I have purchased two of these chargers and they both had this lip. Any ways, on to my modification....
I modified this ESR Charger by slicing off the excess lip surrounding the glass charging surface with a razor blade, see picture. Super easy. This allows for all surfaces to connect flat on to the charging surface. I held the razor blade at about a 45 degree angle all the way around. This eliminated the ridge that was causing the great amount of friction. If you always keep your phone in one orientation then this modification is not necessary. But for those that constantly rotate it, this makes a world of difference in smoothness! I removed the stick on metal ring on my case, don't need it anymore. The magnetic hold is super strong and I can smoothly and easily rotate between Portrait & Landscape, it works amazing! Now it is perfect, yes!

I started working as a courier for a service I won’t name a few years ago, meaning I needed to have some way of reliably charging and keeping a phone visible at all times. I ended up looking for MagSafe compatible phone mounts since the Scosche ones used magnets attached to the case which made them feel really aftermarket compared to a case with magnets hidden inside behind a flat color, or shown to be used with purpose.
Of course, since this is a MagSafe mount, MagSafe cases are EXTREMELY necessary for optimal protection. While the mounts themselves work perfectly fine with a naked phone, a MagSafe compatible case will help when a large pothole or collision (yes, a crash has occurred) shakes the phone off the mount and onto concrete or inside the car’s cabin.
I’ve tested the Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max case with the applicable phone and it works wonders. Definitely try to get first party items, but if you know you’re going to be driving safely, or you have other phones with no first party alternative (tested Samsung S21, Samsung S22 Ultra, iPhone 11 Pro Max, iPhone 12 Pro Max, and iPhone 12 Mini, all with aftermarket or third party cases), those actually hang on pretty nicely too.
Keep in mind that since this is a 2 year long time period for use, the product is bound to suffer some degradation and wear. The clasp is a metal clamp with rubber on the outside, which has deteriorated due to high heat, melting the clamp and causing it to become difficult to reattach to the car vent. So long as you use sun shades and keep the car parked in cool places, you shouldn’t have an issue.
Let’s move on to the pros and cons to help condense the information.
Pros:
-The mount is extremely easy to install
-The cable is included with an adapter
-The box comes with instructions and a QR code for an installation video
-Easy attach to phones that have a MagSafe ring included or a MagSafe case (dependent on if the case has good magnets)
-The charger is USB Type C, so it’s compatible with more modern cables.
-You can use other adapters and cables with the charger, I have an adapter that plugs 4 ports in at once, and it still works two years later with no issues.
-Charger itself continues to charge after 2+ years
Cons:
-The included cable is too short if you want to put it near a driver or passenger door, unless your car has a 12 volt outlet near the doors and not in the center of the vehicle.
-The adapter included doesn’t have any room for additional cables, meaning unless passengers or other devices need a usb for charging or dash cam purposes, you’ll have to unplug the adapter or plug the other cable somewhere else
-The nut on the back of the charger itself becomes slightly difficult to tighten if you have the charger in a set position and want to ensure it doesn’t move during transit
-The charger won’t be as fast as plugging into a dedicated Quick Charge 3.0 port with a cord alone, but provided that you plan on keeping your phone on the mount and not texting and driving, this will charge and sustain your phone.
-If you live in an area with higher temperatures, the rubber around the metal clasp will melt and break the clamp, meaning it becomes slightly more difficult to reinstall if it falls off and will scrape your vent.
-Isn’t meant for cars with weird custom vents, fits vents that are horizontally slatted.
Overall, the cons definitely have no sway over whether or not the product is good or worth buying, as the majority of them are minor nitpicks I have since I have larger fingers and it’s harder to get around the back of the charger itself. I’d wholeheartedly recommend picking this up if you have MagSafe phones or a MagSafe case for something that is capable of wireless charging.
Given that the product was on sale when I first picked it up, and it is currently on sale or has a slight promotion active now, I would recommend picking it up and installing it on your car for future use. I can’t say I’ve had a bad day with them, except for when the rubber broke as mentioned above.
Whenever I pick up the new model, since a new vehicle may join the family fleet sometime soon, I’ll likely order it then and update this listing to include the updated review.

After six months, the ring to tighten the magnet broke. However, ESR's customer service was excellent—polite, responsive, and they quickly provided a replacement unit. Despite this minor issue, the mount's strong magnet and quality build make it a great buy, so is many of the ESR product line. I have purchased numerous products including magsafe cover with stand; love it.

aimanté. la structure tient très bien et Facile à installer. En plus on n’a pas à mettre son chargeur à sac à chaque fois sur le téléphone car il se trouve directement lié au Support. On peut le baisser ou le lever. Il fait vraiment de qualité. J’en ai eu plein d’autres qui ne s’emantaient pas beaucoup, qui se cassaient la figure sans arrêt, rien ne tenait. Je le conseille vraiment.
Attention il existe une version où on met le chargeur directement sur le téléphone et non sur le support. Je me suis trompée une fois j’ai acheté le mauvais.
Donc bien faire attention à cela.

Une accroche rapide et un bon centrage.
Deux systèmes de fixations et de consistances solides.
Pour les évents si vous craignez le chaud ou le froid ( à raison pour la batterie 🔋), vous coupez l'arrivée d'air sur celui-ci ( j'écris cela suite à certains commentaires).
Il faut des ailettes ( les arrières qui orientent le souffle vers le bas où le haut), qui ne sont pas collées à celle de devant ( gauche, droite) sinon le support ne passe pas.
Le support à coller à été mon choix et surtout pour que mon S23 ultra puisse filmer la route et une vue réelle via Sygic ( Gps).
Le câble fourni est bien mais moi il me fallait un usbC de part et d'autre.
J'ai pris la marque ESR pour aller avec la coque ESR magsafe type iPhone et qui rends compatible mon Samsung aussi compatible pour des chargeurs prévu pour iPhone.
Cela à un prix et aucune mauvaise surprise, tout fonctionne normalement.
( Plusieurs jours de tests).
Donc ESR est une valeur sûre.
