Multi- USB Wall Charger
« on: September 27, 2017, 08:05:19 pm »
I wanted to make a post for the kickstarter campaign that I backed today:  Snuggplug

Personally, I think we need a DC circuit inside the walls of our homes.  ..until we make that leap, it's nice to limit the number of power supplies I have.  This seems like a good solution. And, the girls have nearly reached their target goal.

Any particular reason you liked this over other chargers with the same design that are already available?

Because he has a vested interest. No one sensible would buy a USB charger without any specified power/current rating.

Calling it SnuggPlug 3.0 seems to be a scam implying it is a USB 3 charger which it isn't claimed to be anywhere. The campaign doesn't deserve a single backer.

It seems to me you are connectet in some way to the kickstarter.
Its totally useless btw. There are a lot of chargers that do the same.
I always had issues with the AC plug you could clip into the case of the gadget. It broke of.... Plus it might occupy more than one socket...so already thats a no go.

Gamma spectrometer works. Now some yellow crystals need regenerating and testing.

Well, I want to support the creators.  The profit margin in the power electronics industry has been snubbed out.  You can buy your power supplies for really cheap from china.. definitely.  But, given the choice, I'd rather support our aspiring entrepreneurs and makers.

I wanted to post about something other than my own work for once.  I felt that was within the spirit of this forum thread.

I don't know, it seems like a neat little gadget to me.
