NEW YORK - November 2, 2015 - Vringo, Inc. VRNG, a company engaged in the innovation, development and monetization of intellectual property as well as the commercialization and distribution of wire-free charging and rugged computing devices, today announced that its subsidiary, fliCharge has introduced an industry leading 36-watt conductive wire-free charging printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) for automotive and other transportation markets. 

The 36-watt 12-volt charging circuit has enough power to charge smartphones, tablets, iPads and other devices on the same pad simultaneously.  The PCBA can be easily installed at the factory or in the aftermarket in cars, minivans, trucks, RVs and boats providing convenient, highly efficient wire-free conductive charging.  fliCharge's wire-free charging platform is the only solution on the market today that has enough power to keep up with an entire family's charging needs using a single charging pad.

fliCharge's two sided, four layer PCBA has been designed for easy and cost effective installation. The PCBA is approximately half the size of previous conductive PCBA units commonly used in the automotive industry.

                                      

"As wire-free charging becomes commonplace in vehicles, consumers and professionals alike are looking for a platform that is capable of charging multiple devices with comparable speed to conventional wired charging," said Kevin Hibbard, Vice President of Product Development of fliCharge. "From family road trips to law enforcement patrols, the need for superior in-vehicle wire-free charging has become apparent. The comfort of knowing that your mobile devices are fully charged, without the hassle of carrying cables and adapters, cannot be understated."

"I am proud of the accomplishments that the fliCharge team has made since its acquisition by Vringo just a few weeks ago," said Andrew Perlman, Vringo's CEO.  "I am truly impressed with the speed at which the team has been able to sign partnership agreements and introduce innovative products such as the 36-watt PCBA. I am looking forward to the SEMA and CES shows, where these recent developments will take center stage."

fliCharge's technology is currently available from a number of auto manufactures and through our partnerships with MITO for aftermarket automotive and Bretford for smart furniture for markets including education, retail and healthcare.  Through its technology integration program, fliCharge provides its partners with the ability to integrate highly efficient, safe, conductive wire-free charging into their products quickly and cost effectively.
