They\u2019re great for charging our devices, but as soon as you take your eyes off them, they either disappear from the existence or tie themselves in an unsolvable knot, seemingly of their own accord. Plus, who enjoys standing on a plug?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bluetooth and WiFi have already delivered us from the nightmare of tangled earbuds and ethernet trip hazards. Could wireless charging finally drag us out from under the cosh of the cable?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Wireless-Charger-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-72602\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Wireless-Charger-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"898\" height=\"675\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><b>Works like magic<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019ve purchased a phone in the last five years, chances are your phone will be capable of charging wirelessly!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This works via a magnetic field created between your wireless charger and phone, where power is transferred. Through the magnetic field, a current is transmitted to the charging device. It\u2019s this strong current which loads your phone full of juice. This technique is known as inductive charging.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Magnetic-field-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-72603\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Magnetic-field-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"896\" height=\"669\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wireless chargers bring your phone back to life without the need for a flimsy phone cable which can easily break and is seldom long enough. Easy to use, you simply pop your device on top of one of these wizardly creations and watch it reach 100%.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slightly misleading, the \u2018wireless\u2019 charger itself actually requires a USB cable to deliver its magic powers. Plug them into your laptop or wall wart and forget that phone chargers ever existed.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Under the wire<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You would have thought that wireless charging is something of a new invention.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, it owes its origins to<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.computerworld.com\/article\/3235176\/wireless-charging-explained-what-is-it-and-how-does-it-work.html\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nikola Tesla<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, in the late 1800s.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Developed in 1891, the \u2018Tesla coil\u2019 was the first system that could transfer electricity wirelessly. This paved the way for the phenomenon of modern wireless charging.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Nikola-Tesla-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-72604\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Nikola-Tesla-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"654\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just like Tesla\u2019s original, wireless chargers use a copper coil to transfer power. The larger the copper coil, the greater the distance between the charger and device can be. This is why phones have to be placed directly on top of their chargers, as these power points have relatively small copper coils.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Modern phones nearly all contain the technology to be powered wirelessly, and it would be understandable if you thought this was a new addition to devices. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, did you know this technology has been deployed for a decade now? Nokia marketed their Lumia 920 with this feature back in 2012! Today, this technology is a staple feature on phones from every major tech developer.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Taking charge<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Currently, wireless charging is limited to handheld devices, laptops, kitchen appliances and some cars. However, the availability of cordless charging points is spreading like wildfire. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Modern infrastructure, such as public transport, restaurants and venues are being equipped with wireless charging points to keep up with the pace of modern life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Wireless-Charger-point-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-72605\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Wireless-Charger-point-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"897\" height=\"673\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A growing trend places actively deploying wireless charging now include McDonald&#8217;s, Costa Coffee, all Virgin groups, most highstreet phone network branches and several hotel chains like Premier Inn.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Through an app like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.air-charge.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">aircharge<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you can have the locations of all of their public wireless charging points at your fingertips.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Up until the creation of modern smartphones, this incredible technology had little practical use to us in everyday life. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having unlocked its practical side, we\u2019re slowly realising the vast potential this technology can play in our future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we speak, there is a<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.autocar.co.uk\/car-news\/electric-cars\/uk-firm-begins-public-trial-wireless-ev-chargers\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">12-month trial<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> taking place in London testing the ability of wireless charging for electric cars using an induction pad. The Buckinghamshire-based trial employs an armada of modified Renault Zoe EVs and, if successful, could be rolled out to a further nine locations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Zoe-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-72601\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Zoe-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"894\" height=\"596\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><b>Positive charge<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wireless chargers are easy to locate, use and store. Never again will you waste time trying to find your wired charger in a rush as your phone is on 1%. Equally, wireless chargers are much stronger and more durable, so they won\u2019t break like flimsy phone cables do and will hold a much longer shelf-life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A common point of failure on devices is damage to the USB port caused by stress on the socket. Charging wirelessly reduces wear and tear on your phone by removing the need to jam a charger cable into its USB port. Furthermore, removing the charging cable entry point altogether would allow the next generation of phones to become completely water and dust-proof.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wireless chargers can do something wires simply can\u2019t: charge multiple devices at once. Our<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/wireless-chargers\/large\/\" rel=\"nofollow\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">large wireless chargers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0are built for this. They\u2019re also much more aesthetically pleasing than having rogue wires trailing around your home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Broken-phone-cable-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-72606\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Broken-phone-cable-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"901\" height=\"669\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An accompanying advantage is that they make for an effective marketing tool that keeps your brand plugged into your customer\u2019s minds. Give them a branded wireless charger with your logo or details on and they\u2019ll see it every time they charge their phone.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Down to the wire<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Still relatively new, this technology is constantly evolving. With time, wireless chargers will become even more powerful and efficient. Wired chargers are currently manufactured in much greater quantities which is what makes them so cheap.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As wireless chargers become more prevalent in the world, their price will dramatically drop. As the price drops, demand will increase and wireless chargers will become yet more prevalent. Eventually, wireless charging will become the norm, consigning cables and plugs to the history books.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Opening Pandora\u2019s Box<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Pandoras-box-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-72607\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Pandoras-box-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"893\" height=\"670\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wireless charging is still in its infancy. Phones and tablets are a brilliant testing ground to evaluate the longevity, popularity and potential of this method. Its success can and will open the door for many more products to get involved in the cordless experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Admittedly, wires currently provide faster and more efficient charging. However, with wireless technology improving all the time, we\u2019re not sure how much longer that will remain the case.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After all, it\u2019s no longer just R&amp;D teams from manufacturers of handheld devices that are faced with the challenges of fast, efficient, user-friendly electrical charging. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The rise of the electric car is bringing the brains and financial clout of the automotive industry into the fray. We can only expect investment in the further development of wireless charging to grow exponentially in the coming decade.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>The road to a wireless future<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Future-charging-car-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-72608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solopress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Future-charging-car-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"895\" height=\"669\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Speaking of cars, this picture shows a concept which displays the enormous potential wireless charging has.
