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:
https://www.amazon.com/SLBSTORES%C2%AE-Gooseneck-Universal-Bracket-Flexible/dp/B01GNQD5J2
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!

ESR Shock Armor Kickstand Case
Also Posted under ESR Kickstand Case.
I took one star off due to Vent Mount interfered with dashboard screen in Toyota Prius. Read for my solution below.
The HaloLock Car Charger works fine the iPhone is held on very well and my iPhone does not slid off when I hit bumps in the road. I did not like using the vent mount in my Prius the iPhone would block the control screen when placed at the location I liked. Luckily I was able to swap the charging head onto my trusty iOttie one touch 4 dash mount as the ball mount work with the ESR head. This allows for a much better location for my iPhone on the dashboard. The fan in the ESR charger is surprisingly noisy but not noticeable if listening to anything over car sound system. I do not know how “fast” the charger is but I like not needing to plug the iPhone into charger using a lighting cable. It would be nice if the HaloLock came with a USB C Charger Adapter (I use the Ainope 30W charger) without issues.
The case is as expected a perfect fit for the iPhone 14 Pro Max. My last case for iPhone X was an Apple Leather case. I decided on the ESR because I liked the idea of a clear case and the added benefit of the MagSafe compatibility. I thought the kickstand would help protect the camera lens well.
The case is easy to hold in hand and does not feel slippery. The buttons are easy to press and work well. The kickstand is brilliant! I did not expect to like it so much. The hinge feels strong and holds its angle without issue. I have used it in horizontal and vertical positions without any problems. The case slides in and out of my pocket smoothly. I hope I never drop my phone but I will assume the “Military-Grade” protection will help prevent disaster.
The MagSafe works well I use it with the Apple supplied charging disk and the ESR Wireless Car Charger and the hold is strong. I do not have any other MagSafe accessories that I can test this with. I do have a few Qi charging pads flat and angled and the Camera Ring Stand does make placement a bit temperamental. Once I learned how to place the iPhone in the angled stand horizontally with the Kickstand Ring to the left I was able to obtain a slow but steady charge. The lens protector will not let the iPhone charge when placed in angle stand vertically. The flat Qi chargers I have work fine with this case.
The ESR case and wireless car chargers are well made and worth getting if the design is pleasing to you. I will keep track of new products coming from this this company.

Pros:
* Comodidad y facilidad de uso
* Seguro y estable incluso en carreteras con baches
Contras:
* No incluye el adaptador de corriente necesario para el coche
* Solamente compatible con modelos de iPhone con MagSafe
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.
