Linus Tech tips coverage of CTI 2014 is brought to you by

00:00:04.040 --> 00:00:10.400
AT&T are you sick and tired with dealing with the hassle of plugging in cables

00:00:08.240 --> 00:00:14.080
all the time is chi charging simply not fast enough for your on thee-o lifestyle

00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:18.160
well I say Patriot fuel ion is the system for you okay enough with the

00:00:16.240 --> 00:00:21.680
cheesy voice over this thing is pretty cool though the Patriot ion wireless

00:00:19.760 --> 00:00:27.599
charging system is comprised mainly of their cases for the Samsung Note 3 S4

00:00:24.359 --> 00:00:30.400
and S5 phones along with iPhone 5 and

00:00:27.599 --> 00:00:33.719
iPhone 5S with iPhone 6 and note four cases coming in the future the Samsung

00:00:32.279 --> 00:00:37.079
compatible phones connect to the phone via Pogo pins in the back while the

00:00:35.640 --> 00:00:40.520
Apple ones connect via a lightning connector in the bottom you will also

00:00:38.879 --> 00:00:43.480
need some form of magnetic docking station these come in the form of a

00:00:41.960 --> 00:00:47.000
charging plate which rests the phone down flat a charging stand which holds

00:00:45.360 --> 00:00:50.559
the phone in a slanted position and a car mount for your windshield or with a

00:00:48.879 --> 00:00:53.600
little mounting accessory your dash as well the magnets in these devices are

00:00:52.120 --> 00:00:56.920
actually quite strong resulting in the phone snapping into place quite securely

00:00:55.600 --> 00:01:00.640
while allowing you to rotate the phone to whatever position best suits your use

00:00:58.760 --> 00:01:04.360
case another accessory worth noting that you can get is the wireless battery pack

00:01:02.680 --> 00:01:08.320
which allows you to charge wirelessly on the go this is actually pretty cool is

00:01:06.320 --> 00:01:11.320
we all know how fragile micro USB connections are I would rather my

00:01:09.799 --> 00:01:14.680
wireless charging pack was pulled off the back of my device stopping it from

00:01:13.119 --> 00:01:19.960
charging instead of having the USB connector break off my phone stopping it

00:01:17.159 --> 00:01:23.240
from charging Forever This 2100 mAh battery bank is able to charge in daisy

00:01:21.799 --> 00:01:27.040
chain with your device and while they didn't have a spec for how fast the

00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:31.960
charging was in daisy chain it should still be pretty quick if their claims of

00:01:29.159 --> 00:01:37.880
only a 0 .5% lower charging rate than wired hold true especially when compared

00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:41.479
to their claims that Chi charging is 60% slower than wired charging well guys I'm

00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:46.200
personally pretty impressed with how well the magnet works and I hope I can get some time with it alone in the

00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:49.719
office so I can test it against direct connection and CH charging myself but as

00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:54.560
