The Powermat "Handshake"
When a Powermat enabled device is properly positioned on a
Powermat Mat, an automatic "handshake" process will take place
during which the Powermat Mat will recognize the Powermat
Receiver and activate the Powermat Access Point. (NOTE:
Non-enabled devices will not cause activation.) This process
ensures that the proper power is given to your device. Also, this
communication allows the Mat to stop delivering power when the
device is fully charged. This energy efficient process is unique to
every access point on the Mat, meaning that the Mat will address
the charging needs of each device independently. The Mat will also
stop charging each device as soon as that device is fully charged
while continuing to charge all remaining devices.
Note: The light may come on and go off after approximately fifteen
(15) seconds if the mat confirms that a device is fully charged.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How does Powermat work?
Powermat utilizes principles of magnetic induction combined with
Powermat proprietary patent-pending technology to safely and
effectively provide power to electronic devices. Powermat technology
can transform surfaces including walls, tables, floors and desktops
9
into safe, simple, and efficient conductors of energy. It replaces the
need to access multiple electrical sockets for real-time powering
and charging of electronic devices.
Is Powermat safe?
Yes. Powermat technology is completely safe and is well within
compliance of all relevant international safety regulations.
What happens if I put my hand or any non-enabled device
on the Powermat Mat?
Nothing. The system is passive until the Powermat Mat makes
contact with a Powermat Receiver.
Can I use my original charger (with a cord) after my device is
Powermat enabled?
Yes. The Powermat Receiver simply allows you to drop and
charge on a Powermat Mat. It does not prohibit the use of other
chargers.
Can I use Powermat anywhere I travel?
Yes. Powermat was developed to promote convenience among
business travelers, families, students, office workers and anyone
who utilizes multiple electronic devices. Also, Powermat power
supplies are universal and work from 100-240VAC.
