Great news... Apologies for my frequent updates. I just want to make sure you are fully aware of all that is happening with the production. 

The new ultrasonic mold is completed and tested today (the testing will last for a week to be sure there are no issues). 
The PCBA chip has no issues (yay). Below are some of the chip photos. 

Also, you will start receiving the BackerKit Survey between 10 to 13 days from when the campaign ended. This is just how the Backetkit system works.

Power Banks 

You are probably wondering why VOLTA is releasing a lot of products back to back. Well, personally I have always wanted to make our products cheaper to buy and one of the way to do that is to offer multiple functional products that works together as bundle. This approach will help us sell our products to you at a cheaper price and which will in turn increase the return on our ad spend. As advertisement now costs a whole lot since Covid-19.

Hand Bang Mag Cable: 

Since I arriving into the UK. I realised that my phone battery drains faster (this could be a myth) and my phone almost went off a couple of times. I would have been stranded if my phone had died (as I needed my Google map to get me back home safely).
I guess this might have been a result of using the phone more than I usually do (using Google maps for direction).

Now I realise the importance of carrying a power bank around or at least having a minimal but functional multipurpose charging cable with me at all time. There are some digital advertisements stands in the city centre that has USB outlets to charge phone. But no charging cables were provided. It is a bring your own cable (BYOC) free service (lol).

Back in 2018, I wanted to design and make a wrist band fashionable magnetic charging cable. That can be worn on the wrist and be of an everyday carry (EDC).

I have started working on the the cable and it will be available by January, 2022 (if not sooner).

Please, let me know your thoughts on the Google form - https://forms.gle/4mL8HVNVC41r2Bvz8

 

Finally, I will make another update later today or tomorrow about the PD car charger. We have made some major improvements on the car charger. The wattage has been increased from 96W to 100W. It will now come with 1 USB C port + 1 USB A port. 

Thank you for your support and for helping get this far.

We are making a whole lot of progress with our certifications and production.
The temperature policy for the 200W GaN was changed. Initially, the maximum temperature of the full power output was not to exceed 85ºC. But it was updated from 85ºC to 71ºC, which means the temperature must not exceed 71ºC. 
There is nothing to worry about, our certified engineers are on top of this and tests are been carried out in the labotory. All certification fees have been paid (we are pretty much on top of everything). 

We also have all the raw materials for mass production in place for the 130W and 200W GaN chargers. The certifications for the 33W GaN and 3in1 wireless charger are out and production is underway. See the sample image below:


We have also sent a set of these to LLT for a review. Keep your eyes peeled for the review on his YouTube channel. 
We excited about this project and proud of what you have helped us achieved. 

I have moved to the UK, as I will be overseeing the UK fulfilment centre myself. 
To our UK backers and customers, I am thinking of launching the official VOLTA UK hub with a physical launch event. What are you thoughts, would you attend? 

If you noticed we also extended the campaign for 12 days, we did this to give us some additional time to prepare for the fulfilment. Since we've already made down payments on the production with our marketing budget.

Good day everyone, 

We would like to use this opportunity to thank everyone for helping us get this far. 

We have made a lot of progress on the GIGA chargers and we are still scheduled for the November delivery.  I arrived into the UK earlier this week and the setup of the UK fulfilment centre is ongoing. We truly mean the business of offering excellent services to our customers. 

Some of the Anchor were sent out to a couple of our customers for a test run... 

We've now redesigned the VOLTA Anchor, thanks to the feedback from the testers in the VOLTA Inner Chamber community. We turked in the cable on the Magnetic stand port section according to their recommendation (see the images below).

Below is the gif of the improved Anchor. 

Who wants some Spiral retractable PD cables? 

Check out the VOLTA Spark Spiral 

We made this as a custom order for a company and now we are ready to make them available to our customers. So I thought I would share it with you. 
Here is photo of what it looks like, please, head over to the VOLTA Insider Facebook community to see the video of how it works: 

It is also compatible with the Spark 60W tips. Please, share your thoughts with us by leaving a comment of the post in our Facebook community and let us know if you would like to be one of the testers. Click here to Join VOLTA Insider -

Should I release it as part of this campaign, so that you get to receive it with your present GIGA and Anchor order?

Which Phones are compatible with Anchor Wireless Stand? ALL ANDROID AND iPHONES WITH WIRELESS CHARGING CAPABILITY. Yes, you read that right. This is made possible with the VOLTA Magnetic Ring. 


We've made a Magnetic Ring which you can easily stick (like a pop socket) to back of ANY PHONE (Androids and older iPhones alike) to give your phone the MagSafe capability (just like the iPhone 12/13 series). The Magnetic Ring will work for all phones that has Wireless Charging capability. It can also be used as a Mag Stand accessory for your phone.

All products will be shipped together in November, we want you to have them for Christmas and we are happy to release the Anchor now since its already in production. We could wait to release it via a new campaign once we ship out the GaN chargers, but we love making our super customers happy.

Thank you for your support.
