Not to be that guy but this just looks like a rebranded Alibaba product. It's also on Kickstarter which is another warning sign. https://www.alibaba.com/product-... (There are lots of variations of these) It also doesn't appear to be on the Qi Certifed list, so good luck charging your $1K iPhone with some uncertified charging tech. https://www.wirelesspowerconsort...

@frantzlight I just check out the alibaba link you posted, it just copied and paste the airpower pictures, so I think they are not real.
Daniel Greenberg
@frantzlight while I agree with your second point, those Alibaba products look like stock photos and none probably work
Chris Frantz
@15greenberg Here's one that is clearly not a stock photo, and again, there are plenty of these on Alibaba that look like the same thing with different cases. https://www.alibaba.com/product-...

@brianlabarthe1 Is your product Qi Certified?
Jon Rojas
@brianlabarthe1 @frantzlight I think this is the most important question on this thread :)

The one thing people aren’t remembering about charging pads is that we like actually USING our phone while it’s charging.
Adam Posey
@arecenello ish? That’s an awfully strongly held opinion but I’ve covered my house in qi chargers and I’m always using them, then not using them, then using them again. It’s nice to give my phone dedicated landing zones around the house (I lose it less) and at night while I sleep, well, I’m not using my phone so this kinda mat is perfect for me and probably lots of people for whom BOTH kinds of charging are awesome
Pillow John
@trulyadamant An awfully strong held opinion. I wouldn't say so. I'd say many people like to use their phone while it's charging. But okay--your solution is to have a charging mat wherever you may put your phone down so it's in a constant state of charge while you're not using it. Yes--in the future that will be the case. But right now--that's not in the cards for most users.
Adam Posey
@arecenello I mean the threshold for having multiple Qi chargers in each room is decidedly lower than you seem to believe. I think I’ve spent maybe $90 tops in approved chargers and I’ve got mats and stands basically anywhere I might want to put my phone down. I mean we’re talking about a pad meant to charge at a minimum $900 in electronics.

Why wait for this on Kickstarter, buy straight from the factory.

Pros:

Design

Cons:

Looks like an uncertified Alibaba product.

We need a kickstarter filter or something for this site. Tired of seeing stuff like this that is just a white label ripped product show up. Good payday for the "makers" I guess but doesn't need to be on product hunt.
Raggy Lau
Awesome! For $29 this is a steal!
Joid
@raggylau Yeah, and it probably is! @frantzlight this guy appears to be involved in the Serpent IndieGogo team https://www.indiegogo.com/projec...
Matt Waite
This seems like a really well priced product. Does the charger work for the iPods as well? Side note - the voice-over is pretty funny
Lisandro Franky
Interesting. Definitely more of these coming to market. Any plans for a wireless charger for 2 iPhone devices?
Daniel Greenberg
Are you not worried about apple going after you (legally??) the design is very very similar to the patent they have on their upcoming charging pad release.
Brian LaBarthe
Maker
@15greenberg It is a different design.
Abe Bahgat
@brianlabarthe1 from your lack of response to all above certification questions, it seems like this product is not Qi certified.
Vinay
Like many that have asked here, is your product Qi Certified?

Did anyone else notice that the narrator seems to be a native English speaker, but the writer clearly wasn't? And the narrator doesn't correct the awkward, sometimes nonsensical words the writer chose? Super weird.

Backed on Kickstarter :)

Ok let's be real here, the video mentioned messy cables. Yes for charging both devices and no for one device. The wireless station requires a cable. One device (iPhone/Watch) requires one cable. So in my defence, if someone only needs to charge one device then I don't see a USP. Care to shed some lights here?
Abe Bahgat
Does this mean that it can potentially damage my iphone x?

@brianlabarthe1 are you all the same team that was behind Znaps? https://www.kickstarter.com/proj...
Taryn Jean

Absolutely no response from their team, despite many backers calling for refunds, or just SOME sort of communication from the team. Money down the drain. The few people who did report getting their products reported that they broke within days of receiving them. Shocking.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Never arrived, no response from company, complete scam artists.

Tomas Danilevicius

Received it today. Just a white-label product selling as a real deal.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Questionable certification, white-label product, cheap quality

Anne Nelson

Don't waste your money.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Looks cheap and plasticky, chinese knockoff, no international plug, have to place the phone very centered to work
