00:00:02,389 –> 00:00:07,680
okay so today we’re going to look at a

2
00:00:04,470 –> 00:00:10,110
very simple non hack that you can do

3
00:00:07,680 –> 00:00:14,340
more of more of a pro tip that you can

4
00:00:10,110 –> 00:00:17,940
do to turn a non wirelessly charging

5
00:00:14,340 –> 00:00:19,560
phone into a Qi compliant wireless

6
00:00:17,940 –> 00:00:22,289
charging phone that you can use with

7
00:00:19,560 –> 00:00:26,310
pretty much anything available market

8
00:00:22,289 –> 00:00:31,289
now I have tried this already with a

9
00:00:26,310 –> 00:00:34,980
piece of trash deal right there and of

10
00:00:31,289 –> 00:00:38,430
course it wasn’t she complained so do

11
00:00:34,980 –> 00:00:40,950
not recommend what you should do you

12
00:00:38,430 –> 00:00:44,910
should do the smart way and grab

13
00:00:40,950 –> 00:00:46,140
yourself a party grab this the case in

14
00:00:44,910 –> 00:00:49,050
the case of patriotism

15
00:00:46,140 –> 00:00:52,079
so I got the helmet on case here and you

16
00:00:49,050 –> 00:00:54,870
can see overview of that I’ll put a link

17
00:00:52,079 –> 00:00:57,180
somewhere as you can see the view of the

18
00:00:54,870 –> 00:01:00,270
case it’s a good little case that with

19
00:00:57,180 –> 00:01:04,100
no cream for a protective mouthpiece

20
00:01:00,270 –> 00:01:04,100
fishing form and then sort of a harder

21
00:01:05,810 –> 00:01:10,660
hair

22
00:01:07,560 –> 00:01:13,220
so the Carter classic partnership

23
00:01:10,660 –> 00:01:16,370
it’s nice because it steps look it

24
00:01:13,220 –> 00:01:19,700
allows the phones except last slide

25
00:01:16,370 –> 00:01:23,540
expenses which going to be imperative if

26
00:01:19,700 –> 00:01:25,190
we’re going to get a good connection and

27
00:01:23,540 –> 00:01:27,920
then I got this wireless charger on

28
00:01:25,190 –> 00:01:30,110
Amazon for in a couple bucks it’s not a

29
00:01:27,920 –> 00:01:32,870
big deal decreasing all over the place

30
00:01:30,110 –> 00:01:38,210
make sure you get one that she compliant

31
00:01:32,870 –> 00:01:44,990
as most of them are the long time most

32
00:01:38,210 –> 00:01:48,710
of them so I think this is a super

33
00:01:44,990 –> 00:01:50,540
simple not not even a real hack so we’ve

34
00:01:48,710 –> 00:01:54,470
got our little charging pad as you see

35
00:01:50,540 –> 00:01:57,320
it’s got the key icon air so you do know

36
00:01:54,470 –> 00:01:59,710
that it is Qi compliant or at least we

37
00:01:57,320 –> 00:02:01,790
hope that is Qi compliant you know but

38
00:01:59,710 –> 00:02:05,960
all we got to do is just plug this

39
00:02:01,790 –> 00:02:07,820
little guy here into BA and I’m going to

40
00:02:05,960 –> 00:02:09,950
actually put it I’m actually going to

41
00:02:07,820 –> 00:02:11,150
put the charger down here towards the

42
00:02:09,950 –> 00:02:13,430
bottom not actually going to Center it

43
00:02:11,150 –> 00:02:15,380
up on the phone on this particular model

44
00:02:13,430 –> 00:02:18,140
simply because you’re going to create

45
00:02:15,380 –> 00:02:21,350
there’s a little bit of thickness here

46
00:02:18,140 –> 00:02:24,049
with there’s a little circuit board in

47
00:02:21,350 –> 00:02:25,250
here and of course the antenna that adds

48
00:02:24,049 –> 00:02:27,350
a little bit of thickness so I’m going

49
00:02:25,250 –> 00:02:30,560
to stick it down here where the phone

50
00:02:27,350 –> 00:02:32,840
curves in just so it doesn’t create the

51
00:02:30,560 –> 00:02:34,370
bulge on the back of the phone that

52
00:02:32,840 –> 00:02:36,530
would allow that would make the phone

53
00:02:34,370 –> 00:02:40,970
sit and rock and do all the annoying

54
00:02:36,530 –> 00:02:44,180
things anyway so then so all we’re going

55
00:02:40,970 –> 00:02:48,580
to do is just place that there they’re

56
00:02:44,180 –> 00:02:48,580
going to that

57
00:02:49,140 –> 00:02:54,880
[Music]

58
00:02:50,790 –> 00:03:02,460
over them play nice and or Center down

59
00:02:54,880 –> 00:03:09,300
there on top slide enter squishy parked

60
00:03:02,460 –> 00:03:13,060
over that have an enforce lift the

61
00:03:09,300 –> 00:03:16,330
harder outer shot onto a mic back now we

62
00:03:13,060 –> 00:03:21,160
have a Moto X pure a little extra beep –

63
00:03:16,330 –> 00:03:24,550
that looks perhaps to it but it is it is

64
00:03:21,160 –> 00:03:27,190
flat on the back that’s nice it’s kind

65
00:03:24,550 –> 00:03:30,490
of nice weight – I like I like kind of

66
00:03:27,190 –> 00:03:33,100
this bp4 debuff that’s throwback to the

67
00:03:30,490 –> 00:03:36,730
old track very like – mom you know

68
00:03:33,100 –> 00:03:39,520
pulling up inside your head Zack Morris

69
00:03:36,730 –> 00:03:43,060
phone anyway so I liked a little bit of

70
00:03:39,520 –> 00:03:44,950
weight there it adds a substantial bit

71
00:03:43,060 –> 00:03:46,120
there and when I’m when I’m traveling

72
00:03:44,950 –> 00:03:48,010
when I’ve got this gun mounted it

73
00:03:46,120 –> 00:03:50,540
doesn’t shake quite so much just get a

74
00:03:48,010 –> 00:03:52,849
little more inertia to

75
00:03:50,540 –> 00:03:54,890
so that’s that and it really that is

76
00:03:52,849 –> 00:03:56,540
that is all there is to it is very

77
00:03:54,890 –> 00:03:59,780
simple hack I’ll throw it on the charger

78
00:03:56,540 –> 00:04:03,230
here so you can see what happens so here

79
00:03:59,780 –> 00:04:05,209
we have a G compliant charger that I

80
00:04:03,230 –> 00:04:07,909
picked up at IKEA me has this section

81
00:04:05,209 –> 00:04:11,900
from ten bucks on the way over there I

82
00:04:07,909 –> 00:04:14,959
don’t really care but it works we got to

83
00:04:11,900 –> 00:04:18,650
do is just stick that on there and as

84
00:04:14,959 –> 00:04:21,680
you see it’s now charging I mean that’s

85
00:04:18,650 –> 00:04:23,270
really all you got to do so if you liked

86
00:04:21,680 –> 00:04:26,120
