"I don't know how this works so it doesn't" is a dangerous line of reasoning. It's okay to be skeptical but be careful not to express doubts as hard facts. Safety regulations will be interesting whether it's spools, induction or piercing.

Are you advocating for all those nano graphene particle pixie dust scams which work on unknown principle? There is enough space to simply pass a wire, no space for spool or anything. Induction is simply not possible if you think 3 seconds about it.
JamesAllen:
$50/£41 is too much for something that already exists. If I need an extension board, I go to any DIY store and pay £10 for one.

This smells to much like bull to be able to be a viable product.

Sorry

Yep, but there is no space for that. So this is scam.

Slider Pod Size: 140mm x 48mm

They seem to have left a dimension off the specs.

They're creating a Carbon fiber version, if only they thought of using nano fibers and graphene.

This isn't a "nano graphene particle" product. It's an extension cord. You're extrapolating way too much from way too little. we're also definitely not as brilliant as we think we are so we may be overlooking an obvious solution. Let's see what ends up being shipped.

Obvious solution such as insulation gets opened within the box and closed back once it leaves the box? The only thing other than accessing conductors within insulation is placing a lot of wire inside the box for which there is no space. Wireless power transfer within the box is simply nonsense.

Note they did not even bother showing anything powered from that. Not that it's hard to fake though.
