It’s called the Icemag 3, and it’s a 39.1Wh battery (10,000mAh, if you must) with a built-in 25W Qi 2.2 magnetic wireless charger, a 35W USB-C cable built into its fabric lanyard, optional RGB lighting, an active fan for cooling, and an extra USB-C port for passthrough charging, too.
If you’ll recall, those classic Sony point-and-shoots had a big sliding bar to protect their lenses — one that’d also instantly bring the camera to life when you slide it down!
The Icemag 3’s aluminum bar doesn’t slide, and it doesn’t protect a camera lens — instead, it’s a fold-out stand, and the battery’s glowing eye is a 10,000rpm fan to help keep the charger cool. I’m not a fan of tiny fans, and found the sound a bit annoying on the original Icemag, but perhaps it helps keep the compact electronics cool?
This is technically the third version of the Icemag, but the first didn’t have a stand at all and was limited to 7.5W wireless charging, and the second had a tiny folding stand and 15W wireless charging. Neither had a built-in cable, and both charged from the bottom.
Sharge has now moved its charge port to the side — combined with the big stand, it seems like you could also keep it propped up on your desk as a stationary wireless charger for your phone, and Sharge has a picture of it simultaneously using the built-in cable to charge some earbuds as well.
Sharge will launch the Icemag 3 on November 13th for around $70 at its website; it should retail for $80 starting in December. In case you’re curious, here’s how well I liked its previous Braun-turntable-inspired battery:
