Recommendations for wireless charger for new iPhone 15 in a thick Otterbox case?

I just bought a new iPhone 15 and I have it in an Otterbox case which is pretty thick. I would like wireless charger recommendations for it. I have seen a lot of MagSafe chargers but I don't think that they would work with that case. I have a wireless charger now with a kickstand that I really like that I used on my iPhone 12 Mini, which also had an Otterbox case on it. But it won't charge my new phone for some reason. I think it might be because this phone is larger. As you can probably tell, I don't know much about this subject and would like some advice. I have always liked Belkin products. Thanks for any feedback.

Your limiting factor is probably the case, those heavy duty otter box cases are sometimes just too thick for wireless charging to work effectively. Mac Safe *might* be an option since it has the magnets that will help keep things aligned properly, but that's far from guaranteed.

I'd recommend a otterbox that has magsafe, if possible, but if you don't have a otterbox case with magsafe, from what i've experienced, a belkin charger should work well as far as charging your phone.
