$3 AirPods Wireless Charging Mod & AirPower Alternative! #Helpful Post

what's up guys everything Apple Pro here

today I wanted to show you an

alternative product to one of Apple's

that won't be released until 2018 the

air power met and show you guys how to

get wireless charging on your Apple

earpods case right now using a cool mod

I saw online just wanted to recreate it

and see how viable it is so a little

quick video for you let's check out some

Apple air power and wireless charging

case for the air pods alternatives

alright so first things first I wanted

to try the wireless charging case mod on

the Apple earpods case without having to

buy the new $69 adapter now this is

accomplished using one of these pads

just a little wireless charging

receiving pad that's used on a regular

iPhone that doesn't have wireless

charging and I'm sure you guys have seen

these on my channels so I wanted to see

how viable is it let's see if it works

well and just overall how it looks now

obviously it's not gonna be a

plug-and-play solution there's gonna

have to be a little bit of modding and

cutting here but essentially what we're

gonna do is remove this attach it to

this and put a case over it so it

doesn't look like a completely modded

bomb it's about to go off I mean it's

gonna have little wires sticking all

over the place so I'm gonna try and make

this as clean as possible in the

pictures it looked pretty decent so

first things first is I'm gonna take

this apart here split it in two and see

what's going on inside here and you guys

want to be very careful so don't use any

sharp objects that way you don't cut the

wires and leave them exposed but

basically it's just a little bit of

adhesive holding it together and you're

gonna split this apart now this one was

about twenty dollars but you guys can

get them even cheaper it really doesn't

matter all we need is the coil and to

make sure that it plugs into the iPhone

and I've seen them go as two cheapest

like three dollars on eBay I'm not sure

if I'd use those but certainly possible

I mean it'd be saving a lot of money

compared to Apple's version all right so

gently gently removing all of this

okay go all the way around so this is

what we need this wireless charging coil

here

it's basically just gonna be a hunk of

copper with two leaves going to a

converter that's gonna charge any apple

product and including the wireless

charging case as long as there's a Qi

charger or Qi charger around all right

so so we've got that's we want to

separate this control board here we'll

be putting that on one side of the

wireless charging case or the newly

adopted one and this guy on the other

side so pretty simple incredibly simple

setup here we guys want to do is make

sure to remove the coil very carefully

not to bend it or change it in any way

the shape needs to stay the same okay

cool and this is what we're stuck here

with so you guys want to go ahead and

unravel just one strand not much okay

just like that and basically what we're

gonna do is we're gonna stick one side

in here so it's plugged in and we're

gonna this here and this one on the

other side just like that so with a

little bit of scotch tape we're gonna

secure everything together and I know it

looks kind of gnarly right now but what

so we do have this on I'm gonna show you

guys my solution to covering this up and

making it look a little bit better all

right and literally using just some

scotch tape to go over on both sides

here on a line that's perfectly in the

center and before we completely tape it

down want to make sure that it is

working so pop it against the wireless

charger and as you can see it is

charging pretty cool that's like twenty

dollars of supplies and it's working now

again it doesn't need to be this

expensive wireless charging version it

can be literally anyone just as long as

it does work with an iPhone so all right

so now here's a solution for making it

pretty so that way we can wrap it around

the monstrosity we've created and

actually have it look good

and pretty normal hair so all we need is

a silicon case here and as you can see

it is adjustable we're just gonna pop

this through and it's okay if the coils

bend a little bit really doesn't matter

on the back you want to make sure that

this slips into here okay and just go

ahead and wiggle it over it and we'll

have a working wireless charger here

alright and here it is on the actual air

pods case so I'm actually gonna clip

this little inserts for the Lightning

port here off just because we don't need

it anymore

okay that way it's not dangling abouts

but hey it doesn't look half bad and

final result is that you do have a case

you can quickly pop on to a wireless

charger have it charged without needing

to plug it in every single time so I

think that that convenience is pretty

dang cool and for this small amount of

parts from five to twenty dollars

depending on which pan you get it's not

a bad price at all so there is that's

part of this video honestly it was a lot

easier to do than I thought and it's

actually a pretty cool alternative that

way you don't have to spend more money

to get Apple's new case you can

literally just adapt your old one and it

actually works and it's super cool so I

like I like that it actually works you

know usually with mods I'm so afraid

half the time that I'm gonna break

something but this one has no risk to

your air pods at all it's literally

external parts only so super cool

doesn't look half bad next part of this

video sweet all this crap off of here

I wanted to show you the air power

replacement so these just hit the

markets they are three pads in one so

it's not totally like the air power unit

itself that it syncs with iOS and has

all the software control know it's a

cheap alternative $30 but hey you can

charge all of your devices on it at

least I'm hoping I'm not sure about the

Apple watch because that one only works

with some Chi Chargers but I will try it

right now but so this is what you get

and it charges at 2.1 amps so basically

the same speed as apple's fast charger

from the ipad not the 29 watt one so

it's not totally fast wireless charging

but it's pretty dang quick so let's go

ahead and test this guy out here and

beware that the charging cable on this

guy provide

is really short so I needed to grab an

extension cable just to show you guys

this alright so with our iPhone 10 in

hand let's go ahead and pop it on here

cool it working got our air pods right

next to it and the Apple watch which

unfortunately I don't think will work

with this so the one drawback is that

this pad will not work with your Apple

watch I was kind of hopeful upon

ordering it that it would it only works

with certain wireless chargers some

brands for Mophie and Belkin but not

from others for whatever reason so

that's a bit strange it would be cool if

it did work with all three but hey get

two out of three here at least so not

Apple watch compatible but still a sweet

little cheap air power replacement so

guys just wanted to say thanks for

watching quick little mod for you to get

wireless charging on your Apple earpods

case doesn't look terrible actually

would recommend this method this one not

so much doesn't really take advantage of

the fast power charging and doesn't work

on the Apple watch but hey it is only

$30 compared to the suggested or rumored

price of $200 for Apple's air power maps

anywhere from 130 to 200 dollars that's

crazy for a charging map but you get a

bunch of software integration and all

that which is kind of cool anyways guys

thanks for watching hope you enjoyed it

stay tuned for more peace
