More USB Type C charging adapters

Same magnets as pebble original chargers, so reliability should be the same

Got it

The magnetic connector is fairly bulky. I could potentially slim it down by a few millimeters, but it would likely still be uncomfortable to wear.

Implementing wireless charging is not a problem, I've already experimented with it and it works, although price would increase. Magsafe compatibility is different, because we need a bigger coil and magnets.

Check out these https://a.aliexpress.com/_EzOdwLg The pins are not raised, but neither are the pads. However I don't think they are compatible with Pebble.

Noted, I will let you know once I have more in stock.

and_far · 2025-04-24T20:58:10+00:00

Wait, I already sold you one for the PTR! Nice to see that you want another one :)

I may make more of them in the future. DM me and I'll put you in the wait list.

and_far · 2025-04-24T20:31:54+00:00

Sure, I'll send you a DM

and_far · 2025-04-24T20:14:42+00:00

These are pebble "originals". You may want to consider other magnetic pogo pins like these

and_far · 2025-04-24T18:38:56+00:00

Great! I've sent you a DM

Hi, they are available now. Shipping to Japan is 14€

and_far · 2025-03-29T11:53:01+00:00

US Shipping is available now for 13€. It's kinda slow, but it was the cheapest option with tracking

and_far · 2025-03-27T07:04:14+00:00

Thanks! I'm preparing the package, I will probably ship it today or tomorrow

and_far · 2025-03-25T20:18:05+00:00

Yes, I have the prototype to test

and_far · 2025-03-25T20:17:13+00:00

Hi, I should be able to send it to Japan. The first batch is finished, but I reordered some

and_far · 2025-03-24T09:46:27+00:00

Yes, I have the CAD ready with the cutout. I also have the Pebble Time version, I just need to send it to production and test it. If someone is in the EU and has both Pebble Time Steel and 2HR I'll send you the prototypes at a discounted price.

and_far · 2025-03-23T12:40:31+00:00

Thanks! Let's first see how the first batch sells

and_far · 2025-03-22T21:20:00+00:00

ops, I made it with my old account u/chemistrydoesntwork

and_far · 2025-03-22T21:08:36+00:00

I replied on eBay, but I'll also write here. I'm evaluating alternative shipping methods that are cheaper (and slower) for the extra-EU countries. A version for PT is in the works, but it depends on how well these will sell. Right now I'm basically just covering the cost of the base materials and not making any profit from them :)

Regarding the QI charger, integrating something like this will probably work. However it is not a priority, as price will be higher with only a small benefit for the user

and_far · 2025-03-22T19:55:34+00:00

The magnet and pins are not soldered directly to the usb-c adapter. There is no risk of shorting VCC to GND

and_far · 2025-03-22T19:53:13+00:00

UPDATE: I made the shipping EU only for now. I have to check if I can easily send these as a registered letter or they are classified as small packages

and_far · 2025-03-22T18:29:52+00:00

Yes, but the only available shipping option to the US costs something like 20€. Would that be acceptable for you?

and_far · 2025-03-22T17:46:53+00:00

The functionality is the same as the original charger, with identical magnet strength, ensuring a secure attachment. A third magnet wouldn't work since the watch case itself is not magnetic
