The story behind Invention!
" It was an unplanned trekking with my best buddies.The place was great to enjoy but everything went in vain when one of my friend's phone was switched off just before he could complete an important business call . He was struck with a major business deal and disconnecting this call could have a huge negative impact with a major client. His client could probably feel he might not be interested with the deal. He was struck, So was our entire group. Everyone was helpless just staring each other on what to do .None of us had his clients number so that he could callback using any of our phones.
We somehow wanted to bring back his phone alive so that we could continue the trek. But we weren't that lucky because all our power banks were at home and there was no charging point's across miles , All we were left was a bunch of friends & their phones . Finally, We had to cancel the trek and return back in a hurry.
We at
WaferLabs , a startup based in Bangalore, India realized that there is a critical need to make emergency charging simple . Our phone can run out dead any time as we usually don't keep a track on the battery stats . Once our phone is switched off , Our contacts / messages / notes , everything will be shut down. Imagine a person goes for an interview in some new city but once he reaches, his phone dies out of charge . The contact details of the interviewer were on his phone . Now where should he go ? How would he find the place? Whom he shall scream for help? the time is running really fast with pressure struck tightly in his mind !
We had seen lots of examples like this and we really wanted to bring out some solution. We held up our self with a commitment to make emergency charging even simpler. We worked ,worked and worked . Finally were successful in coming up with a fully working prototype of a gadget that allows phone to phone charge sharing. We thus invented HDkey - The worlds first phone to Phone Charger "

Message from Founder !
Hi guys, This is
Ameen from
WaferLabs - A startup by experienced engineers with strong passion to deliver the best out of technology for the people across the globe.
After experiencing frustration with the battery life of our
smartphones, we thought power banks can be a handy tool . Since power banks are quite bulky to fit in our pockets and its very often that users forget to charge them , We thought there should be a better alternative .
The inspiration comes from a day when me and my friends were on a trekking , and one of my friend's phone was switched off just before he had to attend an urgent business call . There was no power sources , No power banks around us , All we had was just a bunch of friends with mobile phones, Everyone helpless !
We decided to do something: create the world's most compact device which can allow hassle free phone to phone charging , high speed data transfer and automation using NFC , to be always carried along.
HDKey Phone to Phone Charger is a very simple product, yet so useful that we believe everybody
should own one. That's why one of our main goals was to keep it
affordable, lightweight and fashionable.
Its a Awesome new thing which is a must for everyone.
Our team is constantly working with various fashion designers and
students to continuously refine HDkey charger in terms of its looks, feels,
style and functionality. Funding this project will ultimately help
speeding up
the ongoing development and will help us cross the barriers to cover the
engineering , fabrication , marketing and promotion costs. We think
with your support we will
be able to deliver this project at the earliest possible time . HDkey
will indeed be a great product to everyone !

QA's for HDkey : The Awesome new Charger Technology
Q1 : If in case , I am charging my phone using my friends phone, Will my friends battery drain out quickly ? Is HDkey charger 100% efficient.
A : Batteries
or mobile power cannot be figured accurately for efficency , There is
considerable loss of charge but definitely not a scenario where charge
drains very quickly . The figures are negligible but also depends on
lots of other factors like - the process running on your phone , your
phones hardware specification , your battery health and so on .
