If you're tired of precisely aligning your charging cable with the device you need to charge, then magnetic wireless charging is just the thing for you!
How Does Magnetic Charging Work?
Magnetic Alignment
When you bring a magnetic charger close to an electronic device, magnets embedded around the charging coils in both the charger and device attract each other. This magnetic attraction precisely aligns the charging coils, crucial for inductive charging.
Inductive Charging
After the coils are aligned, the magnetic charger generates an alternating magnetic field by passing an alternating current (AC) through the charging coil. When the coil of the electronic device is within the magnetic field, it induces a current within the device's coil.
Power Transfer
The current induced in the coil of the electronic device is converted from AC to direct current (DC) through a rectifier. This DC then charges the battery of the electronic device. The convenience of magnetic charging comes from its ability to eliminate the need for plugging and unplugging cables, thereby reducing wear and tear on the device's charging port.
What is the Difference Between Magnetic Charging and MagSafe?
Magnetic charging refers to a variety of charging technologies that utilize magnets for alignment. MagSafe, on the other hand, is a proprietary magnetic charging technology developed by Apple. It includes additional features and a unique design that enhances performance and supports the attachment of accessories.
Qi2 and Magnetic Charging
The Qi2 wireless charging standard, developed by the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC), represents a significant advancement over the original Qi standard and enables faster charging than standard Qi. Magnetic alignment not only improves charging efficiency, but also solves safety issues related to battery heating.

FAQ
Q1: Does magnetic charging affect battery life?
Magnetic charging typically has minimal impact on battery life. The technology is designed to optimize power transfer efficiently, which helps to reduce wear on the battery. Magnetic charging solutions that are properly implemented are optimized to preserve long-term battery health.
Q2: How fast is magnetic charging?
The speed of magnetic charging depends on the wattage of the charger. For example, using a higher-wattage adapter with a compatible magnetic charging pad can speed up the charging process. Some magnetic charging systems, such as MagSafe, support higher wattages, allowing for quicker charging of compatible devices.
Q3: Why is my magnetic charger so hot?
A magnetic charger may become hot due to various reasons. One common reason is the power transfer process, which can generate some heat during charging. Additionally, using a power adapter with a higher wattage than recommended, or a damaged charging cable, can lead to increased heat.
Q4: Are magnetic chargers safe for iPhone?
Yes, magnetic chargers, especially those designed for iPhones like MagSafe, are generally safe when used correctly. The magnets help to align the charger precisely, improving efficiency and safety. For optimal safety, it's advised to use MFi-certified MagSafe chargers and accessories.
Q5: Can I use magnetic charging with a protective case on my device?
Many magnetic charging systems, including MagSafe, work well with thin, non-metallic cases, allowing for a strong connection. However, thicker or metallic cases may disrupt the magnetic field, affecting the charging efficiency.
Q6: Why won't my iPhone charge on a magnetic charger?
For iPhones utilizing MagSafe technology, it's important to use a MagSafe-compatible charger that complies with Apple's standards. Ensure there's no dirt or debris on the charging port or magnetic charger, as it could hinder the magnetic connection. Additionally, verify that your case is MagSafe-compatible; cases that are too thick might obstruct the charging capability.
