doublea’s charging pad oats it cut some

27
00:01:58,960 –> 00:02:06,700
nice kind of a rubbery substance here

dimmer minute

32
00:02:17,190 –> 00:02:21,210
and that’s pretty much all there is to

33
00:02:19,530 –> 00:02:22,500
it there’s no radio function or anything

34
00:02:21,210 –> 00:02:24,450
like that

35
00:02:22,500 –> 00:02:25,860
not that we need that on this model this

36
00:02:24,450 –> 00:02:30,810
is just something that we’re going to

37
00:02:25,860 –> 00:02:34,350
use to charge charge phone and cell time

38
00:02:30,810 –> 00:02:39,420
with we got to plug down you can see

39
00:02:34,350 –> 00:02:42,690
this is pretty bright see if it would

40
00:02:39,420 –> 00:02:46,590
affect the general settings so the

41
00:02:42,690 –> 00:02:53,940
lowest one should be okay for for

42
00:02:46,590 –> 00:03:01,260
nighttime use set the alarm for highest

43
00:02:53,940 –> 00:03:10,950
setting here goes off moving

44
00:03:01,260 –> 00:03:10,950
[Music]

45
00:03:14,470 –> 00:03:23,850
[Music]

46
00:03:20,090 –> 00:03:27,630
love it uh we’ll hook up the phone and

47
00:03:23,850 –> 00:03:28,830
see how it does with charging so what

48
00:03:27,630 –> 00:03:31,890
we’re going to do so we’re just gonna

49
00:03:28,830 –> 00:03:39,750
fit this right off in the back the phone

50
00:03:31,890 –> 00:03:44,570
here look it yeah right there your

51
00:03:39,750 –> 00:03:44,570

52
00:03:44,660 –> 00:04:00,750
popper into case

53
00:03:48,440 –> 00:04:03,090
sure charging it’s charging there this

54
00:04:00,750 –> 00:04:06,210
is a yeah this is kind of ridiculous

55
00:04:03,090 –> 00:04:12,150
hear how this caught plug them sent

56
00:04:06,210 –> 00:04:19,200
Sunday now Friday and it has game looks

57
00:04:12,150 –> 00:04:21,600
like 11 minutes or so yeah so it’s on

58
00:04:19,200 –> 00:04:24,800
I’m a three minute the day to to in

59
00:04:21,600 –> 00:04:26,040
changes day over five day that’s

60
00:04:24,800 –> 00:04:29,850
ridiculous

61
00:04:26,040 –> 00:04:31,980
bad timing in this plan so if you want

62
00:04:29,850 –> 00:04:35,190
an accurate clock this is not going to

63
00:04:31,980 –> 00:04:36,990
be the one as I was afraid of this was

64
00:04:35,190 –> 00:04:39,030
sort of something that was handed in the

65
00:04:36,990 –> 00:04:42,300
back of my mind the whole time I was

66
00:04:39,030 –> 00:04:46,190
playing with this nowhere on the box

67
00:04:42,300 –> 00:04:48,000
does it say that it is Qi compliant and

68
00:04:46,190 –> 00:04:50,880
that’s the problem

69
00:04:48,000 –> 00:04:52,860
now of course it says

70
00:04:50,880 –> 00:04:54,930
the other you know compatible with

71
00:04:52,860 –> 00:04:56,370
wireless charging in a smartphone other

72
00:04:54,930 –> 00:05:01,100
smartphones like an iphone blah blah

73
00:04:56,370 –> 00:05:03,960
blah maybe adaptors to work with this

74
00:05:01,100 –> 00:05:08,520
unfortunately these adapters are also

75
00:05:03,960 –> 00:05:13,770
not Chi compliant thus they do not work

76
00:05:08,520 –> 00:05:16,200
on any qi chargers they only work on

77
00:05:13,770 –> 00:05:18,380
this charger this particular charger

78
00:05:16,200 –> 00:05:23,250
which pretty much makes them useless

79
00:05:18,380 –> 00:05:25,860
that’s a deal breaker right there so sxe

80
00:05:23,250 –> 00:05:29,730
wireless charging digital alarm clock

81
00:05:25,860 –> 00:05:32,840
stay away from it don’t buy this do not

82
00:05:29,730 –> 00:05:37,710
waste your money on this piece of trash

83
00:05:32,840 –> 00:05:42,830
get yourself a real qi adapter and a

84
00:05:37,710 –> 00:05:42,830
real key compatible charger

85
00:05:43,720 –> 00:05:51,759
