Wireless chargers can save us from wrestling with wires, allowing us to throw our phones on top of it and get on with our day. Tesla’s new wireless charging platform, brought to life with FreePower technology, has been given a good handle by JerryRigEverything. You might be starting to cringe at his imagination cutting out metal with a box cutter…and you’d be right to do so.
Tesla’s latest wireless charger is housed inside an angled metal frame, and the part you place your devices on is smooth to avoid any unwanted damage. The plastic charging brick can output 65W of charging power. However, Tesla’s product doesn’t deliver that much power to an individual device, even though some of the best Android phones support those speeds.
Instead, the wireless charging pad delivers 15W of fast charging to each device (up to three) simultaneously.
As the front stand takes off, viewers are exposed to the wireless charger’s array of copper coils that look like they’re protruding from the top of your favorite candy. JerryRig Everything notes 30 copper coils in the shredder, which all work to recognize where the device is outside and which coil should supply power.
Additionally, several of these copper discs can be energized as a team voltage to create an inductive field that the coil on your phone or earphones can use to draw power from.
Removing the copper coil plate shows how the wireless charging pad gets rid of the heat that the circuitry conducts while charging.
You can watch JerryRigEverything’s video in its entirety, as he goes into a bit more detail on why he feels Tesla’s $300 wireless charger did what Apple couldn’t with its failed AirPower product.
The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is equipped with a powerful battery that can last up to two days before needing a quick charge. Also, the device is wireless charging ready if you want to set it and forget it for a bit. Galaxy S23 Ultra’s stunning 200MP Main Camera and photo enhancement software can help make lunch dates and life’s memories even better.
