Flexible Charging Solutions For the Whole Family!

Androids, tablets, iPhones and iPads. There's bound to be a few at home. Charging them can be a hassle sometimes, and always a mess.

There are charging stations that organise the cables, but none really solve the problem of multiple devices laying on the table.

Does this look familiar?

We thought to ourselves; there has to be a better way!

We created the Zentree just for that purpose! Not only does it handle cable management, but it also provides a soft flexible surface which supports multiple devices of different sizes.


The top is made of a soft silicone rubber which protects your devices from bumps and scratches. Viewing angle can be customised if you want to watch a movie while it's on the Zentree.


Where you come in

GELID Solutions isn't a new company, we have experience in production. GELID Solutions is a Swiss company that is strategically based in Hong Kong to aid in our communications with factories in China.

The R&D phase is complete and we have working samples produced that we will send to relevant agencies for necessary certifications.

We need your help to fund the final plastic and silicone mold for production.




If all goes well, we'll be shipping Q1 of 2016!


Risks & Challenges

Does our product work? Yes it does! We have multiple working prototypes already. The prototypes are 90% of what the final product is going to be.

FAQ

What is the Zentree?

It's a USB charging station, for all kinds of devices.


How much does the Zentree cost?

For the early bird offer, we have 30 units at USD 30, after the first 30 units, we have 50 units at USD 40. Pre-orders afterwards will be USD 50.


What do I get when I order a Zentree?

You get a 4 port charging station, 4 micro USB charging cables, cable ties, power cord and a user manual.


How many devices can the Zentree charge?

Up to 4 devices can be charged simultaneously. You can use a 3rd party Y-cable to connect 2 devices to 1 USB port. But please be advised, that poor quality cables pose a risk of severe electrical failure and may damage the Zentree when used with high powered devices such as tablets and phablets. So use it at your own risk. Charging times generally are slower as well.


What is the max power output?

Zentree can output 2.4A per port and can provide a total output of up to 48W max.


What does the Smart IC mean?

The Smart IC will automatically detect your device's proper charging current.


Can I use my own USB cables?

Yes, you can use any standard USB cable. But please be advised the cable should be connected properly to the Zentree and to your device. Otherwise, it may cause damage to your device and the Zentree.


Can I charge an Apple™ iPad Pro with the Zentree?

Yes, the Zentree's smart  IC fully conforms to the latest Apple device charging standards.


Do you have any other color options for the Zentree?

Currently, no. But if there is a demand for other color options, we may consider releasing them at a later date.


When can I get the Zentree?

If you order by February, your Zentree will ship by the end of March and be delivered by April.


Where does the Zentree ship to?

We ship with Hong Kong post worldwide.


Is the cost of shipping included?

No, the cost of shipping to your country will be charged separately. Shipping to the US will be USD 25.


Can I get a refund?

OF COURSE NOT! Just kidding! We're sad that you don't want to be a part of Zentree anymore. Please follow Indiegogo's refund support.https://support.indiegogo.com/hc/en-us/articles/213172367


How do I upgrade my perk to a better one?

Awesome! If you'd like to upgrade your perk to a high-priced perk, you can do so on the contributions tab of your Indiegogo profile. For example, if you originally claimed a USD 5 perk but now wish to upgrade to a $50 perk, you can click "Upgrade to Higher Priced Perk"next to your USD 5 perk. This will direct you back to the contribution flow. You can then select the new higher-priced perk you would like to claim. When you complete the transaction, your original contribution will be automatically refunded. https://support.indiegogo.com/hc/en-us/articles/526756-How-to-Upgrade-Your-Perk


How do I choose more than one perk?

Unfortunately, the Indiegogo system is not setup to choose multiple perks at once. If you'd like to choose more than one perk, you will need to initiate a separate order.


I preordered a Zentree but i didn't get a confirmation email. How can i check the status?

Please see the article on How to Know if Your Contribution is Successful.


What safety certificates does Zentree have?

FCC, CE-LVD, CE-EMC and DOE VI.


Where can I use the Zentree?
