Did you have the Nomad "Base Station" or the new "Base Station Pro"? The pro versions looks brand new and was only recently on August 25th: https://nomadgoods.com/blogs/the-nomadic/base-station-pro

Since I can't edit my comment, I'll correct it here. As others have pointed out, I bought and returned the "Base Station" because it only had 2 coils and needed precise placement. I have not used the "Base Station Pro" (but will give it a shot, since it has some advanced tech). I jumped the gun on my comment, so the above comment is not accurate.

if you want the one thing that will work, though with a much less polished very un-Apple-y design, this is expensive, huge, and it will work basically edge to edge.

I will say having used it, I understand why Apple axed the idea. It is huge and gets hot and I assume it is thicker than Airpower would have been.

I own the base station, which is pretty close to what you are describing. Apparently the base station pro is different.
