Smart home technology has come a long way. From smart locks that offer keyless entry to sensors that keep homes secure, these devices promise convenience and peace of mind. Voice assistants, intelligent thermostats, and automated lighting systems are transforming the way we live and making homes more efficient, personalized, and connected than ever before. The thrill of controlling your entire home from your phone or with a simple voice command is no longer science fiction. But there is one problem that continues to frustrate users: battery life.
Homeowners are often surprised by how frequently their devices die. Some report replacing batteries every few weeks. Others find themselves locked out or left unprotected because a sensor or lock drained its power without warning. One user wrote, “The lock sucks through batteries like I have never seen before.” Another said, “The biggest issue is that the batteries run out after about 5 days to 2 weeks.” And yet another, “I just replaced the battery 2 weeks ago and now it’s dead again.”
While smart home devices make our daily lives more convenient, homeowners are frequently surprised by how unreliable they can become when something as simple as battery life turns high-tech convenience into unexpected hassle.
A New Approach To Powering Locks
AeroCharge has developed a long-range wireless charging system that redefines what’s possible in smart home design. Our patented technology can deliver power over the air—up to 12 feet away, and without needing a direct line of sight. This means devices like smart locks, doorbells, and sensors can remain fully powered at all times, quietly and continuously, without the homeowner lifting a finger.
Unlike conventional wireless charging pads that require close contact, AeroCharge works through walls, furniture, and everyday obstacles. It operates safely within the unlicensed spectrum and meets all FCC compliance standards, ensuring it won’t interfere with other wireless devices in the home.
Designed to Fit Seamlessly Into Smart Homes
The system is designed with flexibility in mind. Power modules can be customized in size and output to suit different applications—from tiny 2×2 cm components ideal for compact sensors, to more powerful units up to 10×10 cm for energy-hungry devices like video doorbells. Depending on need, AeroCharge can deliver anywhere from 100 microwatts to 10 milliwatts of power.
This scalability allows manufacturers and product developers to choose the ideal balance of size, cost, and charging speed. If more power is needed, the system scales proportionally—without overcomplicating the design process.
A Future Without Battery Anxiety
Imagine a smart home where the lock on your front door never goes dark, your motion sensors are always alert, and your doorbell never fails due to a dead battery. As smart home adoption continues to grow, so does the need for systems that are not just intelligent, but truly autonomous. AeroCharge isn’t just solving a technical problem. It’s transforming the user experience—removing one of the biggest barriers to reliable, long-term smart home functionality.
