That's not correct. The sport charger is 1.5mm thicker than the stainless charger and stand manufacturers have had to take this into account when designing their stands so they will accommodate both sizes of charging pucks.

Really? I was unaware of that, thanks!

I've been contacted by the seller today. They said:



It was in a usual Amazon "Feedback request" email, so I almost missed it. I'm certainly going to take them up on the office as I'd prefer one that actually fits.

Got the same unsolicited message, so they probably received many complaints. Let's see what the replacement is like

I bought one of these from Amazon 2 days ago. Same old issue with the cord or charger popping out. This said it was the revised but it wasn't.

On a side note, all of these that look similar no matter what grand are the same.

I received one of these same stands on Saturday from Amazon UK, to use as a cheap stand for my desk at work.

Hated it immediately, and will be returning it on Monday.
