Im so sick of using cables to charge all my devices. Arent you?

Back in the early 1890s, famed inventor Nikola Tesla (hes the guy that really invented the alternating current) predicted that one day, electricity would be ubiquitous, wireless and free.

He called it free energy or ambient power.

Ambient power was the idea that you could transmit energy through the air, rather than through a metal wire, to any device within range.

Not only was the thought of wireless power considered ludicrous, but it was also considered useless.

Well, times have changed. Now we have some 2 billion smartphones; soon, well have a trillion sensors needing power.

And Nikola Tesla was right.

Wireless power is right around the corner, and before I tell you about a specific, incredible company that will rock this world, let me briefly cover the recent past.

Whats Out There?

Wireless charging has been out there for some time, waiting for the right interface moment to make it brain-dead easy to adopt.
