I Want This New Wireless Phone Charger All Over My Home
At under 2.4 inches in diameter and just over an inch thick, the PowerBug is the definition of unobtrusive. Rather than using a power cable, it plugs directly into an outlet with its fold-out prongs; it's small enough that it won't block the second outlet on a duplex receptacle, although your phone might, depending on how you position it. As far as I can tell, this is the only product of its kind in the U.S. Netherlands-based Zens released a similar product last fall, but as of publication, it's only available with an EU plug. The PowerBug adheres to the Qi2 powering standard like most recent wireless chargers, with magnetic charging at up to 15 watts. Just snap your iPhone into place and it'll start charging. Position your phone horizontally to use StandBy mode to display a clock, photos or widgets. The most recent Samsung Galaxy phones support Qi2 as well, but you'll need a case to take advantage of the magnetic alignment feature. This charger is ideal for places where there's a raised outlet, like kitchens and bathrooms, because it allows you to view your phone without having to find a way to prop it up while it's charging. As someone who loves to cook, I find this particularly useful. I can check timers or watch a YouTube cooking video without having to tap around on my phone lying on the countertop. If you do need wired power, the PowerBug has that covered, too. There's a 20-watt USB-C port on its underside for charging a second device, although you have to provide your own cable (we recommend this one from Anker). That's enough power to charge headphones, a tablet or even a laptop, albeit at a slower-than-maximum rate. The PowerBug's simple design and black and white color options mean it'll fit in almost anywhere in most homes. And it's small enough that I could see traveling with it as well, slipping it in my bag and plugging it in as a convenient charging solution at a hotel. It's so useful, I've been looking around my apartment for any outlets that I could reasonably plug a PowerBug into—I could see ending up with a small collection of them. Although it may look pretty plain, there's a lot to love about this wireless charger.

ZEN Technologies ends higher after receiving patent for long-pass optical filter
ZEN Technologies advanced 3.05% to end at Rs 1981.90 after the company announced the grant of its 54th Indian patent, titled 'Single ILU Long Pass Filter', marking a significant breakthrough in laser based military training systems. This patent also represents the companys 82nd patent globally, reinforcing Zens leadership in defence innovation through indigenous research and development, the company stated. This patent, granted to ZEN Technologies, is for a long-pass optical filter. This filter allows visible and infrared laser beams to work together smoothly in one device. This makes combat training simulators more accurate, realistic, and responsive. Old systems used separate beams, which often had problems with alignment and didn't last long. Zen's new filter is small and strong. It works better in tough conditions and needs less fixing. The company stated that this patent would open up significant export opportunities for Zen. With several nations actively seeking to modernize their military training infrastructure, Zens high-performance, cost-effective, and low footprint solution is well-positioned to address international demand. The patented filter systems compact design and modularity make it ideal not only for full-scale simulator environments but also for mobile deployment and export-oriented models. Zen Technologies is a pioneer and leader in providing world class state-of-the-art defence training and anti-drone solutions and has a proven track record in building training systems for imparting defense training and measuring combat readiness of security forces. The companys consolidated net profit surged 189.18% to Rs 101.04 crore on 129.86% jump in revenue from operations to Rs 324.97 crore in Q4 FY25 over Q4 FY24.

Apple 官網上架，Zens 雙層無線充電板可充 4 部 iPhone！能讓你忘記 AirPower 嗎？
幾年前 AirPower 胎死腹中，讓多少全面擁抱 Apple 生態的用家倍感失望。時至今日，荷蘭公司 Zens 在 Apple Store 上架了一款 Quattro 無線充電器 Pro 4。它標配 65W 轉換器，一次最多能為 4 部 Qi2 裝置充電，如此強大的輸出能力或許能彌補一些 AirPower 造成的遺憾。 不過，盡管 Zens 的這款配件能充的裝置比 AirPower 多一部，但它並不具備自動對位的能力。話雖如此，其每個充電位都支援 MagSafe，在磁吸的幫助下使用起來估計也不會太麻煩。至於雙層結構，外觀肯定是不如 AirPower 的一個平面來得簡潔。但這樣顯然更利於降低充電時的溫度，而 AirPower 遲遲不發的根本原因，據稱就是因為 Apple 搞不定多線圈的過熱問題呢。 Zens Quattro 無線充電器 Pro 4 售價 HK$1,198，目前已在 Apple 官網有售。 Apple 香港售價 HK$1,198 立即購買 緊貼最新科技資訊、網購優惠，追隨 Yahoo Tech 各大社交平台！ 🎉📱 Tech Facebook： 🎉📱 Tech Instagram： 🎉📱 Tech WhatsApp 社群： 🎉📱 Tech WhatsApp 頻道： 🎉📱 Tech Telegram 頻道：
