1966 Charger
It wasn't long ago that I was absolutely, completely, and totally uninterested in the concept of "wireless charging." Something about the fact that it wasn't truly wireless — i.e., giving me the ability to walk around my house without needing to plug in for a charge — just rubbed me the wrong way. But then I got an iPhone X and a couple Qi charging pads and stuffed a "You're a Hypocrite" card into my wallet.
I love wireless charging. It's convenient, simple, and doesn't require fumbling with a cord and port. The only thing I'm not big on is the way wireless charging pads tend to look. Too many of them have adopted the modern sci-fi aesthetic: decked out in shiny materials, packed with LEDs, and emblazoned with logos. I went looking for a more subtle option and decided the best way to incorporate wireless charging without the eye sore would be to integrate it — to make it a part of my home.
Enter IKEA, the (in)famous furniture and home decor company, that's offered Qi wireless charging products since 2015. IKEA has several Qi-enabled furniture pieces in its lineup, including tables, desks, lights, and well-designed, freestanding wireless chargers. The company recently touted its RIGGAD work lamp and VARV table lamp in an advertising campaign directed at iPhone users.
The best product it sells, though, would have to be its RÄLLEN wireless charger — an understated wireless charger that you can build into a piece of furniture of your choice. It's a mere $13, it comes in black and white, and it's Qi certified.
With a diameter of 3 inches, the charger will fit in many standard-sized grommet holes, meaning your desk may already feature the perfect spot for an integrated wireless charger. If you'd like to add an integrated wireless charger to a piece of furniture of your own, all you need is a drill, a hole saw, and a bit of elbow grease! In fact, IKEA sells a hole saw set for installing the RÄLLEN wireless charger, but any 3-inch hole saw will do.
Simply mark where you'd like to install your wireless charger, don the necessary safety equipment, and drill your hole. Feel free to smooth things down with a little bit of sandpaper and some mineral oil. Believe it or not, that's all there is to it! You'll have a perfectly sized hole to slide in your new wireless charger.

Which Pokémon remake is the best?
Remakes are meant to be the definitive version of a video game, but not all remakes are created equal. Here's what we thought of every Pokémon remake so far, and which one is the very best (like no one ever was).
