Energous Corp. (WATT)

[derkampfer]

Actual in person demonstrations on Mid and Far. Seen both. At HQ on different occasions. Latest was shareholder meeting last year.

FCC approval of NearField. NearField directly competes with Qi. But better in terms of ability to pair/position. More flexible than Qi. No heat with foreign object detection like Qi. GNaN NearField higher power than Qi too. All contact based. Not over air.

Heat killed Qi and AirPower. Apple cancelled program. Couldn’t get it to work.

Hurdles for WattUp NearField are adoption into already Qi dominated consumer space.

Ecosystem is WattUp’s greatest advantage

NearField is contact based power transmission. How can that be“unsafe?” Is plugging in your phone into a wall outlet unsafe?

Don’t be fooled. Yes. Company has hurdles but safety is not it. Regulatory in Asia and Apple NDA.
