In this aspects we had set down with various magnetic suppliers and found out that the best possible type of magnet to use in this instance was the neodymium magnet as it was not only strong, but at the same time was able to handle high temperatures (without loosing its magnetic power)Ĥ) The cost to develop a prototype was high, we had went to numerous manufacturers here in singapore to fabricate the cables & get parts to manufacture the cables, Nobody wanted to entertain us as we needed small quantities. An accidental push would disconnect the charging cable from the connector. As a result we overhauled the entire design of the charging cable.ģ) Charging cables were very flimsy, during the early prototypes, we found out that our charging cables could easily be disconnected.

We had to figure out a way how to ensure that the cables can snap into place (Correctly Every Single Time)Ģ) We also faced another problem, while charging our cables other objects on the tables kept getting attracted to the charger and when you try to remove them while it was charging the device, you would feel a small electrical shock.Ĭoncerns of safety were immediately raised, as we knew potential customers may be electrocuted & injury may happen. Some of the risk & challenges which we had to overcome are as followedġ) While building our prototype, the first issue we had to overcome was the very fact that the Lighting & Micro USB connectors were at different locations. No project is without risk nor challenges however, we are determined to reduce them.
