Why don't they work? My nexus 5 should be here today...Is the charger not the same generic microUSB charger?

same size, and they do charge the N5, just painfully slowly (about 1% every 20/30 minutes). Different wattage or amps or something.

Nokia DT-900 Wireless Charging Plate - Retail Packaging - Black

Great charger. Works with or with out a case on the phone. It does not matter what angle you have the phone at, it will still charge.

Works at weird angles

Works even with large cases

Picked one up on skank-bay for $14.88 USD. Charges fast, shuts down when fully charged. Chargers with phone case on. Very happy with wireless charging.

+1 I did the same

I had purchased from Amazon for my Nexus 4 this one:
GMYLE(TM) White enabled Wireless Charging Pad Charger with 1000mA (1A) output & DC Port (US Plug) for Standard Nokia Lumia 920/920T/925/928/1020, LG Google Nexus 4/5/7 FHD, Samsung Galaxy S4, iPhone 5
by GMYLE
Before anyone gets their knickers in a wad over the charger power cable, they have a model for a little bit more that uses microUSB as a source. I have been 100% happy with this one, and the reviews posted must have included some older versions. I am getting a couple more to put around the house (office, bedroom etc) and at my work office. I figure if they last half as long as the big names I'm still ahead. Charges almost as fast as the wall wart through a Spigen Slim Armor and the Spigen Slim Ultra (we're a two Nexus 5 family!). Happy hunting!

great charger... just wanted to drop in to say its the only charger i use and i have 3 now. it charges fast, and doesn't make my phone get hot unlike other chargers.

BTW what case is that? im diggin it

That's a SPIGEN SLIM ARMOR case - my wife uses that one, we also have the "gold" one.
Nice, but too bulky for me, I kept accidentally pressing the power or volume controls when it was in my belt case. SPIGEN Ultra Slim case works better for me.

I'd like to find a wireless charger that also has a clock and stereo speakers. Do any of you know of such a device?

I just ordered the nexus orb from last year on Amazon. Heard it works much better on the nexus 5 than the 4. We will see tomorrow.
