The battery pack only uses MagSafe to align itself magnetically to the iPhone 12 – it doesn't actually do the charging using MagSafe technology. Instead, it will charge the iPhone using standard 7.5W wireless Qi charging. The pack weighs 120 grams and has a built-in 5,000 mAH battery, meaning an iPhone 12 can be fully charged twice on the go.
The battery pack itself charges over USB-C, which also means it doubles as a portable standard power bank for any smartphone, thanks to its USB-C port that supports up to 12W of charging power. The battery pack design is straightforward, featuring a four-stage LED charging indicator and an on-off button on the bottom. Hyper says the battery pack features "industry-leading advanced temperature control, overcharge protection, and foreign object detection."
The HyperJuice Magnetic Wireless Battery Pack is available for order now for $39.99.

Are you assuming based on battery capacity? Because you waste a LOT of mAH by wireless charging. It’s not efficient at all.
Hopefully this charges with a cable as well (and turns wireless charging off) and then a little U shaped cable could do the rest.
I was just thinking this. If you just used a cable to charge with, the pack could be smaller because they wouldn't have to account for all the power loss due to inefficiency of wireless charging. I really don’t get wireless charging in this instance, just plug the thing in...
I’m surprised given how much Apple highlighted the potential of MagSafe, they still haven’t came out with anything aside from the charger & wallet. All while not licensing 15W charging to anyone else.

The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max are expected...

Hyper: Hold my beer.

Curious what Apple wants for licensing this. Probably a lot, since there are so true actual 3rd party MagSafe accessories that will charge at 15W.
