Another Breakthrough for DoD
3 days ago
We Shared the Secret!
WiGL is proud to present a few more details about our contracted work for the Department of Defense (DoD). So far, we’ve completed 3 tasks for DoD’s WiGL’s World Fair 2.0 (WWF 2.0). In our view, Task 3 was a HUGE success!
In support of this 3rd Task for DoD, WiGL demonstrated the ability to use PowerCast’s FCC approved touchless Wireless Power Transfer (tWPT) devices…to create a meshed network whereby the end users recharge their cellphones (and other cool DoD stuff), while the devices are in use and mobile!
Video coming soon…
Huge thanks to:
Guinn Partners’ electrical and software engineering teams for the GREAT works.
PowerCast for being a pioneer in tWPT and providing the transmitters and receiver capabilities and expertise to fast track WiGL & DoD’s success.
Rickard Consulting Group for the amazing software, enabling interoperable mesh networking.
Altus Air Force Base for being an innovator for the warfighter.
Samsung Mobile for being part of WiGL’s journey…can’t wait to explore the possibilities and share what’s next.
Now what: Task 3 was videoed. We hope to share as much as we can…soonest.
There are 5 additional tasks on this contract, leading to WiGL enabled products for DoD.
And we are on contract watch for DoD’s next purchase request.
Our vision remains to get this technology into the hands of our troops first and then work with our partners to commercialize …so stay tuned!

The Secret is Out!
WiGL is proud to share more details about our contracted work for the Department of Defense (DoD). So far, we’ve completed 2 tasks for DoD’s WiGL’s World Fair 2.0 (WWF 2.0). The 3rd task is our laboratory (lab) demo of WiGL-enabled products: recharging multiple mobile devices on the WiGL network; read as recharging cellphones.
The WWF 2.0 Task 3 demo will be at the Guinn Partners lab in Austin, Tx on 10 August 2022.
Task 2 of WWF 2.0 is broken down into 2 parts:
Part 1 features commercial off the shelf (COTS) products:
- For this task, we are using transmitters/receivers from PowerCast
- We are using safe 800-950MHz waveform harvesting (and storage of power)
- And finally, we can officially share details of WiGL’s patented PowerBanks...connected to the end user’s mobile devices
To us, the most impressive piece being demo’d in Part 1 of WWF 2.0 Task 3 is our touchless wirelessly rechargeable “intermediate electronic storage device” (that’s patent language for a wirelessly recharged PowerBank). To meet the immediate battlefield needs of DoD, our wirelessly recharged PowerBank uses a small lithium-ion battery rated at 3.7V, 2600 mAh. These are the kind of PowerBanks you can buy at Walmart or your nearest Airport, but with a twist...they are wirelessly recharged using radio frequency. We will also demo some WiGL proprietary technologies that include a medium-size COTS lithium-ion rechargeable Powerbank rated at 4000 mAh. With these WiGL enabled PowerBanks, we are able to rapidly recharge most Apple and Samsung mobile devices, making our WiGL network + WiGL PowerBanks ideal for recharging end-user mobile devices.
Part 2 of WWF 2.0 Task 3 will demo the software controlled parts of the WiGL network. In short, well-known Bluetooth + WiGL proprietary software will be used to manage/control the networks. Special thanks to Rickard Consulting Group and Cubic Mission Performance Solutions for the amazing WiGL software and Apps.
What: With these married technologies, the WiGL-enabled network controls the PowerCast transmitter “nodes”. The nodes that form the network are provisioned to turn on/off automatically based on demo thresholds set for DoD devices. Additionally, the provisioning and automatic/manual nodes will be demo’d from both Apple and Samsung Apps during the WWF 2.0.
So what: WiGL’s touchless-wirelessly recharged PowerBank takes roughly the same amount of time as plugging into the wall to recharge the end user device. We are still working improvements to make recharging the PowerBank faster. The WiGL-enabled PowerBank connects to the USB port of the end-user’s device, so no device modifications needed. We are excited to show that this touchless wireless power transfer (tWPT) network and setup meets (exceeds) 21st century DoD and commercial needs. And our WWF 2.0 demo in early 2023 will feature 3 different end user mobile devices on the WiGL network…at the same time… “electrical power reimagined”
Now what: there are 5 more tasks on this contract. And we are on contract-watch for DoD’s next request. Plus, we have caught the attention of major telecommunications companies!
As always, stay tuned for exciting WiGL news…look for HUGE news in August.

More WiGL Developmental Successes
about 1 month agoWiGL’s World Fair 2.0
HUGE SUCCESS!
As a thank you to our loyal investors, WiGL would like to take this opportunity to peel back the curtain on what we’ve been producing. As you know, WiGL does not want to be just another investment you make, we want you to share on the journey of delivering tWPT (touchless Wireless Power Transfer) to the world. With that said, we are happy to announce that yesterday, the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), Technical Point of Contact (TPOC) accepted WiGL’s Task II (2) Deliverables.
Task II was arguably one of the hardest tasks WiGL was contracted to complete.
Here’s what the government requested:
Task II: Quantify power transmission yield
1). Load inventory:
In collaboration with TPOC and end users, generate use profiles (voltage and current versus time) of devices to be powered and charged.
2). Receiver (Rx)-load fit:
For a range of device classes, and within the WiGL integrated Transmitter (Tx) network and frequency, match the Rx antenna assemblies to meet expected load profiles.
3). Generate power use scenarios:
Based on the load profiles, generate transmitted power needs for standard (“normal”), enhanced (enhanced power needs), or critical use (highest priority).
Deliverables:
- WiGL-enabled Rx adapted to load profiles across device classes (cellphones, radios, tablets, GPS, etc.).
- Protocols to adapt power transmission to level of use (normal/enhanced/critical).
Acceptance Criteria:
- End user accepts range of device classifications and use profiles.
.
Huge thanks to PowerCast and Guinn Partners for the engineering support. Team WiGL was able to meet the Task II requirements ahead of schedule.
Here’s what WiGL delivered:
Task II: Quantify power transmission yield
1). WiGL visited an undisclosed Air Force Base (AFB) in May 2022 to determine devices for Task #6 (Demo)
- Two mission critical lithium-ion battery powered devices were selected.
- The 1st device has a nominal voltage = 3.6V / 16.2 Wh
- For charging, the device requires a charge voltage = 3.6V / 4400 mA
- The 2nd device(s) support the Android Tactical Awareness Kit (ATAK) (lithium-ion battery power Apple and Samsung devices)
- Apple and Samsung devices nominal voltage = 3.85V / 17.33 Wh
- For charging, these devices require a charge voltage = 4.4V / 4500 mAh
2) Receiver (Rx)- load Fit:
- WiGL used commercial off the shelf (COTS) Tx’s and Rx’s, and a proprietary external device (ED) to meet the 3-5V power needs of the
Mission critical device + Apple and Samsung devices.
- The initial design is an external dongle device (USB) that attaches to the devices.
- The WiGL enabled ED USB is designed to increase the usage time of the end user device by >30%.
- The ED consists of antennas and Rx, stage A and B rechargeable batteries, and a boost converter
- The boost converter boosts 3.7 to 5V
- Based on current results, the ED is able to recharge the end user devices in the similar amount of time as if plugged into a wall/charger
As some of you who have invested might be aware, WiGL’s World Fair 2.0 (WWF 2.0) is a big deal for WiGL. This groundbreaking COTS demonstration for AFRL and the Department of Defense is designed to firmly establish WiGL as the dominant name for tWPT. As our commitment to those who have shown belief in WiGL, we are excited to share what is currently going on during this stage in WiGL’s development process.
If updates on WWF 2.0 is something you want to stay abreast of, please visit us at startengine.com/wigl to learn more. Please continue to join us on this journey to solve the energy problems that plague our society today.
Thanks to you all, and we cannot wait to share more with you in the future.

RimTech & WiGL are Gearing up
about 1 month agoStay Tuned for another RimTech Update😉.
WiGL is proud to announce that we have entered into another tentative products agreement. This time with Project Overlord, specifically to work with their latest endeavor, RimTech. WiGL believes that a vehicle-based Internet of Things (IoT) technology like RimTech demonstrates a solution that coincides perfectly with our vision of future Smart Cities populated by touchless Wireless Power Transfer (tWPT) networks. Additionally, an agreement between our companies could deliver amazing vehicle based IoT solutions for consumers everywhere.
WiGL’s patented wireless networks allow for all forms of battery powered tech to partner and move towards the future of 21st century wireless power. WiGL is excited to include RimTech in our vision of wirelessly powered devices and believes the benefits of this partnership…could be limitless. In addition to getting RimTech involved in our Smart Cities initiative(s), WiGL also sees the benefits of including tWPT technologies in Electrical Vehicles (EV).
A marriage between WiGL + IoT devices + EVs that can recharge and/or power RimTech devices could allow for:
1. unlimited wireless power that moves with you
2. greater battery life through wireless recharging
3. the ability to track and trace vehicles in real-time (helping to fight crime)
WiGL’s vision for the future, to create smart tWPT networks using all forms of commercial off the shelf (COTS) hardware, has not changed. Partnering with RimTech creates another COTS avenue of necessity for consumers, auto-dealers, and insurance companies. The wireless charging market offers $25 billion in possibilities and deals like this only help to broaden the horizons of WiGL-enabled COTS products.
We are very excited about what the future has in store for wireless power products and cannot wait to see how both companies thrive from this strategic relationship!

Happy 4th of July
about 2 months agoHappy 4th of July!
As we reflect on the 1st half of 2022…just as we thought we were done with the challenges of COVID, 2022 has emerged as a modern-day market crisis typhoon. 2022 has reared back and thrown nasty curveballs.…at market after market, every chance it gets. Starting with conflicts and wars abroad, this year has plagued investors at every level with product shortages and market prices that show no signs of decreasing any time soon. A sharp rise in gas prices, crash after crash of crypto markets, and steep drops in stocks has caused even the most exploratory of investors to begin to tighten their belts.
Thought to be one of the most optimistic and growing forms of investment, cryptocurrency took a steep nosedive recently. There is growing concerns within some crypto investor communities whether the NFT market will remain as lucrative as believed. Combine these problems with a red-hot housing market that is constantly threatened with a crash, and people are more worried than ever with where they are putting their money. That’s why investing in the future and seeing past the ups and downs is the only way to truly feel comfortable with your financial decisions. And keep some piece of mind.
Knowing that you have options, WiGL wants to thank those of you that have invested in WiGL.
Your support helps us continue to strive to what we want to be tomorrow. With over 750 investors already, and another $1 million dollars recently raised on StartEngine, we could not be more honored that you are taking the journey with us especially in these uncertain times. WiGL understands the state of the capital markets in these times, and just as you invest in us, we work to invest in you by securing new contracts, developing our product(s) and building the WiGL networks to the fullest capacities, while finding new firms to work with and broaden our horizons.
Every new investor and every new dollar allows WiGL to keep pushing forward in the pursuit of touchless wireless power transfer (tWPT). You are helping to create a planet less dependent on the harsh mining practices for battery components, and future more focused on accessible power.
As some of you who have invested might be aware, WiGL is currently working on Demo 4 of our technologies (WiGL’s World Fair 2.0). As our commitment to those who have shown belief in WiGL, we are excited to share that we can peel back the curtain somewhat and provide investors with a peek at what is currently going on with this stage in the development process.
If this is something you would want to be involved in, you can visit us at startengine.com/wigl to learn more. The point of this quick 4th of July note is to communicate to those who have supported us where WiGL is in the process of things, but also to demonstrate transparency and establish a back-and-forth. We don’t want an investment with WiGL to be just another deposit that is made, rather a journey you take with us as we work to solve the energy problems that plague our society today.
So again, Happy 4th of July…thank you all, and we cannot wait to share more with you in the future.

Happy Freedom Day from WiGL
2 months ago
Hello WiGL Family!
As we enter one of the greatest inflationary periods in nearly 50 years, compounded by shortages in everything from baby food to can goods…WiGL would like to take a moment and honor the things we still have. Top of the list of things Americans hold dearest is FREEDOM.
America spends billions each year promoting freedom around the globe. And in the coming days, our Nation will honor one of America’s most importance symbols and legacy of Freedom. Juneteenth or Freedom Day (June 19) is now a Federal Holiday…making June 19th officially a three-day weekend to enjoy family and friends. But Freedom Day is also about celebrating and remembering our shared freedoms as Americans.
Juneteenth commemorates the events of June 19, 1865, when Union General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, to inform enslaved African Americans that the Civil War had ended… and they were hereby freed. Freedom Day commemorates the emancipation of those enslaved African Americans and has been celebrated annually on June 16, 17, 18 and/or 19 for over 150 years.
Let us never forget the sacrifices made by Americans-for-Americans, demanding the end to America’s enslavement of its citizens. Let’s also reflect on the legacy of our ancestors and the systemic changes they made to reshape America into the beacon of hope for the world. Freedom Day is a celebration that signifies those changes, America’s promise of freedom, and symbolizes our shared aspiration that captures the American spirit.
Enjoy the long weekend celebrating friends, family and freedom. Reflect on the promise of freedom America promotes around the world today…and how it relates back to Juneteenth.
Your WiGL Team is honored you are part of our family. Thanks for your continued support!
