Clickat

Toolless-Cuddly is a connector designed for assembling cat trees. The connector is made of plastic and measures 76 mm in width, 76 mm in depth and 46 mm in height. Assembly is completed by aligning the clasps and rotating them, so no tools are required. Parts can be taken apart and joined again many times, which allows a cat tree to be expanded or reconfigured as the needs of the cats change. The connector supports a load of 30 kg. Worn accessories can be replaced, extending the service life of the cat tree.

Echos

Electric charging On-demand Station was born from the desire to provide a robotic, autonomous and on-demand charging experience that is therefore not bound by a fixed position. This makes charging flexible, simple and accessible at any time. The goal is to push the creator to design a product that will help users and that could represent the future of electric vehicle charging. Echos exceeds the standards of the traditional fixed charging station and opens up new scenarios. For Echos, geometric lines have also been designed.

Oraimo Powershield

Oraimo Powershield is a series of charging devices made for safe and efficient charging. The AniShield chip detects current fluctuations and power outages and automatically activates power off protection. Charging resumes once the electrical supply becomes stable again. The casing is made of heat resistant PC plastic, and thermal paste is applied to improve heat dissipation. An indicator light shows the charging status through steady, slow flashing and rapid flashing signals. The series includes 25W, 33W and 65W models.

Power Mural

Power Mural is a household energy storage battery pack designed for home use. The pack has a brushed aluminium alloy shell with simple lines, so it blends into different home interiors. A gradual light strip in the centre of the shell changes colour to show charging or discharging status and battery level. A triangular indicator light at the bottom also works as a switch. The split structure supports several parallel connection methods, and the connecting cables are hidden inside for a tidy look. Modular design and multilevel electrical protection improve safety.

Hybrid

Hybrid is a hybrid inverter designed for solar power systems with battery energy storage. Gallium Nitride semiconductor material reduces power losses during conversion and supports a maximum efficiency of 98.4 per cent. An MPPT algorithm adjusts the output of the solar panels under varying light and temperature. Wireless data transmission simplifies wiring and installation. A mobile application shows generation, consumption, grid status and battery level, and sends fault alerts. Cooling fins on the back dissipate heat.

Jackery

Jackery is a foldable solar panel set designed for outdoor use. The photoelectric conversion rate reaches 24 percent, and the panel is IP67 waterproof and dustproof. Two or more units can be connected in parallel to charge an outdoor power supply at the same time, which improves the charging speed. An aluminium frame and silicone corners protect the panel and reduce the total weight. Integrated molding technology and ETFE packaging material provide weather resistance, with a life span of 25 to 30 years. A retractable power cord simplifies connection.
