I'm just repeating what's on their website. You have no evidence that their device doesn't work. Thousands of Kickstarter backers, professional investors, and an entire team of engineers say otherwise. I don't know why…
> Solar and kinetic charging are bulky and cumbersome. At this price point they would probably be shoddy and unreliable. There are some portable solar panels that can charge up an iphone with a few hours. If you have…
Well anything with a GPS signal should work right? The main problem is a constant charge. I think a mix of portable solar panels + something like the Ampy Move charger (getampy.com) should be sufficient as a "safety"…
This is completely off-topic to whether or not Ampy Move works. FYI these guys won the 2014 Clean Energy Challenge award [1]. This required a review from an entire panel of senior scientists and engineers... For example…
No I'm not associated with them. I just enjoy supporting emerging technologies from real hackers, like the Ampy team. I think the review you referenced was for an early prototype device. The one the shipped doesn't seem…
I think the reviews don't paint the full picture. According to the Ampy team less than 2% of customers have any complaints. [1] so you're probaly only reading the super disgruntled. It's likely they just got defective…
Yes the shakeable flashlights are no good, but it's worth pointing out the following: 1) The Ampy team claims their technology is new and proprietary (also patented) 2) The Ampy team consists of 3 Northwestern…
How long does the phone run on these batteries? A much better solution would be something that recharges your existing phone. Solar or kinetic motion.
Or you can just purchase an Ampy Move (www.getampy), an external battery pack powered by kinetic motion. Instead of using the SpareOne, just shake the Ampy and recharge your phone. Ampy Team does this all the time to…
