WiGL have raised almost 5 MILLION dollars on StartEngine.
What's worse than another wireless charging technology startup? - One that doesn't really have any original technology and simply uses off the shelf RF energy harvesting chips!
This one is just embarrassing.
And they want to comepete with Energous, WiTricity, Ossia and others, LOL.

For a near identical product, and one that contains some actual original tech to try and do 5W wireless charging, see my debunk of the Xiaomi wireless charger. This is EXACTLY what the WiGL will have to be if it wants to receive 5W directed RF power. The numbers and issues will be exactly the same, so just replace the word Xiaomi with WiGL and you have another Part 2 debunk of WiGL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6JDOXjvKAI
