A Wireless Phone Charger Designed for the Marine Environment
Smartphones now occupy a central place on board our multihulls. Navigation, manufacturer apps, weather, control of certain systems: our phone screen has become an extension of the helm. On the water, humidity can be so high that charging via cable becomes problematic; in this case, the ideal solution is to have a smartphone that charges wirelessly… and the Ultra Qi2 offered by Scanstrut.

This wireless charger is designed for permanent installation in marine environments. Compatible with 12V and 24V networks, Qi2 and IPX6 certified, the system uses a MagSafe-type magnetic mount to ensure the smartphone remains in its optimal charging position. The goal of this new equipment is not to multiply functions, but to guarantee continuous power supply under real-world conditions, including when the multihull is underway, and to ensure screen readability during charging.
