Kenu | BingeBank
Design & Project Lead
With the explosion of streaming video services now available on mobile devices, there was a need to effectively allow users to binge watch entire seasons of shows non-stop. Kenu’s first portable power product, BingeBank, allows the user to wirelessly charge as they watch videos on their Qi-enabled smartphone.
*Product was designed and launched before Apple MagSafe.
“The Best Qi-Wireless Charging Powerbank for 2020”
As VP of Design, I led all aspects of the BingeBank design, from inception to market launch.
The Qi-certified product features thermal protection, circuit protection, and foreign object detection.
The Nanosuction Pad and Die-Cast Metal Kickstand makes it easy to use the phone in landscape or portrait mode.
The battery features a 10000mAh capacity, 18 watt power delivery, and three ways to charge, allowing it can power up to three devices at once.
The 18W USB-C port allows input and output charging.

ID explorations
Early prototypes consisted of attaching our Stance tripod to a powerbank. From there we explored multiple configurations that would allow hands-free viewing in multiple orientations while charging.
I was responsible for all marketing photography and video for the product.
