WiGL have raised almost 5 MILLION dollars on StartEngine.
What's worse than another wireless charging technology startup? - One that doesn't really have any original technology and simply uses off the shelf RF energy harvesting chips!
This one is just embarrassing.
And they want to comepete with Energous, WiTricity, Ossia and others, LOL.
