PowerKiss wire-free charging
The essence of wire-free charging is the pairing of Heart and
Ring. The Heart is the transmitter and the Ring is the receiver and
together they enable wire-free charging on almost any surface.
Ring
The Ring is a small accessory that is plugged into handheld
devices, such as mobile phones or mp3-players. As soon as the
Ring is plugged in, the device is ready to be a part of a wire-free
energy transaction.
Heart
To turn a surface into a wire-free charging platform it first needs
to be given a Heart. Like most, this Heart is also hidden except
for Hotspot to indicate that it is ready to charge a mobile device
wearing a Ring. Whenever the device with Ring is on this Hotspot,
the wire-free charging begins.

STEP III - Red means charging
As the Heart inside the furniture recognizes the Ring, the
Hotspot’s indication light turns from white to red. The charging
starts as a red light appears also on the Ring.
When the battery is detected to be full, the charging ends.
In this situation, the indication light on the Hotspot turns to
green and the light on the Ring goes out. In some cases the light
remains red if the device is drawing maintenance power.
• The red light on the Ring indicates ongoing charging and
the red indication light on the charging area indicates that the
Ring has been recognized by the Hotspot (placed correctly)
