It's Time to Stop Worrying About Charging



In today’s modern world, running out of power is a huge problem. Over the years our tools have evolved, but the way we power them has not changed in decades. It’s time we end cord hell and the never-ending quest for more power outlets.


Live life on the FLI and never worry about searching for outlets or charging cables again! Charge your mobile devices quickly and conveniently using our charging pads, smartphone cases and universal adaptors.




ReVive is a low cost, easy to install, FLIway charging pad for your car that provides 36-watts of power, which is significantly more than any other in-car wireless charging solution on the market today.

ReVive comes with all of the other added benefits of FLI Charge’s technology including freedom of positioning, charging speeds as fast as plugging in and no additional radiation.

ReVive can be installed in virtually any type of transportation vehicle including cars, trucks, RVs, and boats, providing fast, powerful and easy to use wireless charging for smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices.

ReVive was designed in conjunction with our partner, MITO Corp. MITO is a leading distributor of aftermarket products to the transportation industry.

At the end of the campaign, MITO will work with backers to pair them up with a professional installer at one of the more than 9,000 car dealerships in the MITO network.

A typical installation takes about 20-30 minutes and should cost between $30-60 depending on the dealer and car model.

       


FLI Charge is comprised of charging pads called FLIways and FLI Charge-enabled devices. FLIways are plugged into the wall and send power to “swimlanes” on their surface. The FLIway constantly monitors the flow of electricity and immediately halts power transfer if an unapproved object, like liquid, is detected. FLI Charge-enabled devices are embedded with the FLImod, which is a smart chip that is connected to four contact points.

The FLIcase makes charging your smartphone a complete afterthought.

Available for: Apple iPhone 6, 6s, 6 Plus & 6s Plus | Samsung Galaxy S6, S6 edge, S7 & S7 edge


The FLIcube charges any USB device optimally and as fast as plugging into an outlet.

The FLIcoin’s built-in microUSB or Lightning connector makes it easy to charge any device on the go.

 

Power flows from the swimlanes, through the FLImod and then on to your device. The smart chip ensures that the optimal amount of electricity is sent to your device and the geometric relationship between the contact points and swimlanes ensures that the FLImod will remain in contact with at least one positive and one negative swimlane, regardless of the device’s position or orientation on the FLIway, guaranteeing a continuous charge.


FLI Charge works with any USB powered device including smartphones, tablets, e-readers, Bluetooth speakers, drones, video game controllers, cameras, GoPros, smartwatches, fitness trackers and more! FLI Charge is best when you have pads in the places you spend the majority of your time.


FLI Charge transforms the way you power your life, making it easy to keep all your devices at maximum power. Other wireless charging solutions, which for the most part use Qi inductive technology, are typically slow and fickle, and are limited to smaller devices. FLI Charge’s technology is powerful and fast - able to charge larger devices such as tablets, cameras and drones.



FLI Charge partnered with Intelligent Product Solutions (IPS), a world leading product development company, to design the look and feel as well as assist in preparing the product family for manufacturing. IPS’ 110+ person team has extensive experience across each and every stage of the product design and manufacturing process. Its reputation is unquestionable and reinforces our confidence in delivering beautiful and beautifully made products to market.

Throughout the design process we remained conscientious of our products’ user experiences as well as their aesthetic qualities, both individually and as a family. It was imperative that the aesthetic of our products be matched only by the convenience of our technology.

Beyond asking our customers to have faith in the promise of FLI Charge’s technology, we are asking for space in their pockets and real estate in their homes; as such, we strived not only to develop tools to enhance productivity, but pieces of art that fit seamlessly into your life.


FLI Charge is not just another gadget - we are bringing a new and better standard of living to the world. We have tremendous aspirations and many exciting projects brewing, but none of these will ever happen without your help.

We are certain that FLI Charge is without a doubt the most powerful, fastest charging, easiest to use, and safest wireless charging solution on the market. We have finalized the prototypes and now we need that last push to bring the product to you as quickly as we can.

We would love for you to join our community and bring wireless charging into our daily lives. We can’t wait for you to try out FLI Charge and live life on the FLI!

FLI CHARGE TECHNOLOGY

Are there other wireless charging solutions like this available?

While there are many wireless charging solutions on the market today, the vast majority of them use a different technology, called induction, to send power wirelessly. To our knowledge, FLI Charge is the fastest, most powerful and easiest to use wireless charging system on the market.

What phones is the FLIcase compatible with?

To start, we are manufacturing FLIcases for the following smartphone models:

  • Apple iPhone 6/6s
  • Apple iPhone 6/6s Plus
  • Samsung S6
  • Samsung S6 edge
  • Samsung S7
  • Samsung S7 edge
What else is FLI Charge compatible with?

FLI Charge’s technology is capable of charging or powering any USB powered device. Aside from the smartphones listed above, we are launching with two universal adapters, the FLIcube and the FLIcoin, that are capable of charging any USB powered device. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Bluetooth Speakers
  • Drones
  • Smartwatches
  • Wireless Headphones
  • Fitness Trackers
  • Gaming Controllers
  • Vaporizers
  • And much more
Is FLI Charge compatible with Qi or other wireless charging technologies?

FLI Charge utilizes conductive technology and is therefore not compatible with other wireless charging technologies like Qi.

My smartphone or other mobile device has Qi built in.  Will FLI Charge still work?

Yes. FLI Charge and Qi are two completely different technologies and are not mutually exclusive. As long as your smartphone or other mobile device is USB powered, FLI Charge will have no problem keeping it charged.

FEATURES AND TECHNICAL
Does FLI Charge need batteries?

No batteries are needed to use FLI Charge. The FLIway 40 uses a standard power adapter (included) to plug into the wall. FLI Charge’s power adapter plug supports 110v and 200v, meaning it is compatible with power outlets in every country around the world with just a socket converter.

How does FLI Charge’s conductive power transfer work?

Conductive Power transfer occurs when two conductive objects, like metal, make contact.  Electrical current flows freely between the two conductors while electrical current is present. FLI Charge pads are connected to a power source that sends electrical current to the conductive surface of the pads. FLI Charge-enabled mobile devices have a FLImod that is directly tied into the device's’ power source. When the FLImod makes contact with the surface of the pad, power is transferred from the pad, through the FLImod, to the mobile device.

How fast will FLI Charge charge my phone?

FLI Charge is nearly 100% efficient and will charge your smartphone or other mobile device as fast as plugging into the wall.

Where on the FLIway 40 should I place my phone?

One of the greatest benefits of FLI Charge, as compared to other wireless charging technologies, is that you can place your phone anywhere on the pad, in any orientation.

Will the FLIcase protect my phone?

FLIcases are made of high grade ABS material and will protect your phone from everyday bumps and drops.

How many phones and other mobile devices can I charge at the same time?

The number of devices that you can charge simultaneously on a single FLIway 40 depends on two things:

  1. The size of the devices: The FLIway 40 has enough surface area to fit three smartphones or 12+ FLIcubes/FLIcoins.
  2. The devices’ cumulative power requirements: Mobile devices charge at varying power levels or wattages. If the cumulative wattage of the devices connected to a single FLIway 40 exceeds 40 watts, the FLIway 40 will halt power transfer until enough devices are removed such that the total power requirement drops below 40 watts. To give you an idea of how much power different kinds of devices require, the table below has approximate wattages for commonly used devices:

Smartphones

5-10 watts

Tablets

12-15 watts

Bluetooth Speakers

5 watts

Smartwatches & Fitness Trackers

1-2 watts

Cameras

5 watts

Does FLI Charge work internationally?

Yes. We have sourced type A, C, G and I wall plugs that are compatible with the FLIway 40. A list of plug types by country can be found here. If the wall plugs used in your country does not include type A, C, G or I, you will need to purchase an outlet converter in order for the FLIway 40 to work.

Will the FLIcase block access to the headphone port?

We have designed the FLIcase to have as small a bottom as possible. Although most headphones are able to plug in without problem, we have included a jumper cable that attaches to your headphones, just in case.

SAFETY & LEGAL
Are FLI Charge’s technologies protected with Intellectual Property?

Yes. FLI Charge has granted patents covering the core technology as well as pending patent applications. FLI Charge is continuously expanding it’s patent portfolio.

Will using FLI Charge for too long harm my battery?

No. It is a common misconception that mobile devices can “overcharge”. Power management is typically controlled by the mobile device, making sure that overcharging isn’t possible. Therefore leaving devices charging on the FLIway 40 won’t harm them, it will just ensure they are charged and ready to use.

What happens if it gets wet?

The FLI Charge software has a built in safety mechanism that will detect any foreign object on the surface and instantly turn off and quickly restart when the object is removed.  The system is water resistant. If it gets wet, water should be removed as soon as possible and it should be allowed to dry completely.

Is FLI Charge safe?

Using FLI Charge is as safe as plugging into a wall outlet. Unlike other wireless charging systems, FLI Charge emits no additional radiation so you don’t have to worry about potentially harming yourself or those around you. Furthermore, the FLIway 40 has a built in control system that constantly monitors and immediately halts power transfer if an unapproved object, such as liquid, touches the surface of the pad.

What certifications does FLI Charge and its products have?

FLI Charge products are FCC and CE approved and conform to ROHS standards.
