Overview 4 fliCharge owns a patented, conductive wire - free charging technology ► Founded in 2014, fliCharge’s universal wire - free charging surface charges one or more smart phones, tablets, smart watches, vaporizers, power tool batteries and other devices simultaneously on the same pad ► Over $20 million previously invested in development of technology at Pure Energy, a company primarily focused on green rechargeable alkaline batteries ► Compatible with virtually any DC powered or battery operated device ► Established partnerships with large companies and began commercializing efforts in late 2014 Easy to Use The ability to place a device anywhere on the pad Efficient Conductive wire - free technology provides industry leading pad to device charge efficiency of 100% reducing charge times while saving energy and money Low Cost No coils used; just conductive metals, plastics and rubber with small power management board the size of a dime - only one needed for any size charging surface

 
 

Technological Overview ► A transmitter wire - coil in the charging surface radiates a magnetic field which is captured by a receiver coil embedded in a device. ► The magnetic field is converted into electrical energy with pad - to - device efficiencies of ~70% ► The maximum power transferred is about 5 Watts to one device ► Contacts or pins on the back of a device make an electrical connection with a metallic charging surface ► This energy is used to charge batteries with pad - to - device efficiencies as high as 100% ► Ideal product applications range from Bluetooth headsets (<1Watts) to laptops (> 100Watts ) Illustration Low Cost to Embed Technology NO YES Small Package Footprint NO YES Efficient Power Transfer NO YES Zero Intentional Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) NO YES High Power Capabilities NO YES Multiple Units Charging at Maximum Rate (High and Low Power Devices) on a Single Pad NO YES Free Positioning at Full Charge Rates NO YES Inductive vs. Conductive Technology 5 Conductive (fliCharge) Inductive (competition )
