Previous “5” and 7″ Wi-Spot Devices Already Driving 100% Sales Lift When Placed on Store Shelves Next to Products

TEL AVIV, Israel, Oct. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Wi-Charge, the global leader in wireless power, today announced a significant upgrade to the only LCD video displays that are wirelessly powered and can be easily placed anywhere in retail stores, including shelves, refrigerator doors or the head of a gondola, without running wires or replacing batteries. The new 9-inch Wi-Spot, a 300% increase in size from the original Wi-Spot designs, further empowers brands and retailers to make their products stand out at the exact moment consumers are making a purchase decision. This latest upgrade highlights Wi-Charge’s unmatched pace of innovation in wireless power and further establishes it as the market leader.

While in-store retail media networks continue to grow rapidly, they are constrained by costly installations and limited to only where power outlets are available. Wi-Charge’s breakthrough wireless power eliminates the significant cost of installing in-store video marketing platforms by delivering electric power over the air. The Wi-Charge solution allows easy installation of video displays right next to the products and at eye level, where customers can engage with effective and timely marketing messages.

“Wi-Charge’s video displays have had a dramatic impact on product sales for leading CPG brands in a very short period of time,” said Richard Valdes, marketing director and new business development, The Retail Group. “We worked with a number of brands to rapidly install Wi-Spot’s at the store shelf to promote lactose-free, non-refrigerated milk, and they saw a 110% lift in sales. As a result, we plan to significantly expand the deployment of Wi-Spots across stores. I see a big future for Wi-Spots in retail.”

The new wirelessly powered 9-inch display size is thinner and sleeker, making it easier to place on store shelves or flush on refrigerator glass doors while delivering an innovative experience to customers.

“Retail media networks are like Google ads for in-store shopping, giving customers a final nudge in their buying journey,” said Ori Mor, co-founder and chief business officer, Wi-Charge. “To be effective, product information must be seamlessly delivered at eye level on the store shelf. Wi-Charge wireless power makes this possible, and the sales boost our customers see proves it. We’re thrilled to see Wi-Charge delivering tremendous benefits to retailers and brands.”

The First Cartridge-Free Smart Waterless Diffuser Is Here. What Would You Fill It With?

Published

on

By

Lephrone set out to solve a frustration for customers who want smart control over their home fragrance and the freedom to choose their own oils. The H300 is the first waterless diffuser to combine cartridge-free refills, Wi-Fi app control, smart home integration, and an in-app fragrance oil library with scanning and personal notes. Customers can use their favorite compatible oils, create their own blends, and use the app to set a scenting schedule and track how much oil is left.

NEW YORK, Nov. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — “There are thousands of fragrance oils out there, so why lock yourself into just one brand?” said a Lephrone developer.

“Lephrone took the best of the diffuser world and left the worst behind.”

We wanted to make a device for people who need a ritual to unwind and want more control over their surroundings. There’s a whole world of sensory experiences out there, and our goal was to bring the way you manage scent at home into the digital world.

With the H300 lephrone diffuser, we kept what we liked about smart cartridge-based diffusers: Wi-Fi connectivity, lephrone app, voice control, and the ability to recognize oils and track how much is left. We made sure it supports both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi. We also did away with what frustrated us most: never-ending subscriptions, cartridges that run out too quickly, and limits on which oils you can use. With the H300, you get to choose the oils you want and create blends you love.

We also added support for multiple users and multiple diffusers, so everyone in the household can control the devices and set schedules. The H300 can run even when it’s offline.

We’re releasing our own fragrances, too. In the app, you can scan them into your personal fragrance library and write down how a scent made you feel, whether you liked it, and what others at home thought of it. That matters because after trying a few oils, it’s easy to forget which one you loved most or which one everyone else kept asking for.

We’re rolling this out to more Lephrone models next. Stay tuned.
