UTS-1 FAQs
Is it compatiable with iPhone 12 MagSafe?
The UTS-1 is compatible with iPhone 12 and MagSafe designs up to 20mm (0.8"). iPhone 12 Pro Max compatibility and performance may be reduced due to additional camera module thickness.
The presence of magnets in the iPhone 12 series creates more interference with our charging signal meaning the overall charging distance needs to be reduced to 10-20mm (0.39" - 0.80") to improve compatibility.
iPhone 12 charge times can vary significantly depending on camera module dimensions, placement accuracy and additional MagSafe Case usage. All iPhone 12 models enter a slower charging mode once the battery level exceeds 80% due to battery and software limitations set by Apple. A combination of these conditions may result in devices not being fully charged to 100% after a full overnight charge.
For best charging results please charge without a MagSafe case as this further increases magnetic interference and charging distance.
Support.Apple.com states the following:
- When charging a non-MagSafe Qi-compatible device with a MagSafe Charger, power is reduced and charge times may be slower than on a typical Qi charger.
- If your iPhone is connected to both a MagSafe Charger and power via a Lightning port, your iPhone will charge via the Lightning connector.
- As with other wireless chargers, your iPhone or MagSafe Charger might get slightly warmer while your iPhone charges. To extend the lifespan of your battery, if the battery gets too warm, software might limit charging above 80 percent.

Is it compatiable with AirPods?
No it is not optimised for AirPods. The coils in the AirPods are too small for effective charging at long distances. With that said, distances below 20mm can achieve a reasonable charge.
What do I buy if if i have iPhone 12s and other iPhones in my household?
The key difference is the charging distance between iPhone 12 and all other iPhone models - if this is the case, please ensure your surface thickness is no greater than 20mm (0.80").
What should i choose if i have iPhone 12 and Androids in my household?
The UTS-1 will work for both types of devices. The key difference is the charging distance between iPhone 12 and all other Android's and iPhones - if this is the case, please ensure your surface thickness is no greater than 20mm (0.80")
Which thickness version should I choose and why?
The thin and standard UTS-1 version's will depend on the thickness of your table - please measure your table and choose appropriately.
Please only choose the correct thickness version for your table. For example - buying the standard version (0.7"-1.0") when your table is within the 'thin' parameters (0.39"-0.66") will not 'work better' - this is because the standard unit is too powerful for short range charging. The unit will not turn on if this happens.
UTS-1 TroubleshootinG
What does the flashing LED indicator on the charger mean?
- Please ensure the power adapter is plugged in all the way.
- If No 1. does achieve a solid light - please unplug and re-plug in the power cable to the unit.
- Please plug in the charger to a single point power (not a multi-plug extension cable) if it is not already so and check again.
- A flashing LED is therefore an electrical system fault error( please see LED indication section (Page 12) on the user instructions.
Why is my phone not charging
Please ensure:
- If you have a phone case, it is flat and does not contain any metal, centrally located magnets, card holders, pop sockets or kickstands.
- Ensure your phone is aligned as centrally as possible.
- Check if your phone is Qi wirelessly charging enabled.
- Check your sticker position through recalibration.
- Check your table thickness is within the stated performance range.
Why do the audio confirmation beeps take different amount of time?
The time taken to beep is determined by how accurately you have positioned your device. A center position will beep faster than a misaligned placement or at greater distances, i.e.
25mm (1.0”). Thicker cases can also cause longer recognition time and therefore longer time to beep. Recalibrate if necessary to improve sticker position or center your device on the sticker more accurately to get a better alignment.
Why has my phone stopped charging?
The UTS-1 is designed to recognise and react to temperature changes within your phone which can occur after extra long charging periods of 3 hours or more. In these instances, the charger may enter a standby mode to allow your device to cool if required by your phone until the device requests more power. This feature ensures better battery health and longevity for your phone.
Why does my phone feel hot
Increased phone temperatures during wireless charging are normal during longer charging sessions. Our IPC™ technology is designed to minimise phone heating however, if your phone is hotter than usual, please ensure you have aligned it correctly and try again.
Can I switch the audio confirmation off?
Yes – if you would prefer or need to use the charger without the audio confirmation buzzer system, you are able to turn it off. However, without the audio confirmation, your phone is not necessarily charging just through the charging indication on your screen. If you choose to use the device without the buzzer, please ensure your alignment and setup is correct and accurate.
- To disable the buzzer.
- Switch your height toggle switch to calibration mode and switch back to your original height position and listen for the number of audio beeps
- Repeat again to disable or enable depending on preference.
Why do the charging speeds vary?
Different phone models have different battery sizes and charging profiles therefore take different amounts of time to charge, with large batteries especially taking longer. Charging speeds may also slow at ≥80% in IOS models due to Apple software requirements designed to limit battery deterioration during wireless charging.
The UTS-1 recognises IOS charging signals and corresponds by adapting charging speeds until your device requests more power. Please try turning OFF ‘Optimised Battery Charging’ in your ‘Settings’.
Charging speeds will also vary depending on the surface thickness. Thicker surfaces will reduce charging efficiency due to the greater distance the charging signal needs to travel.
How do you daisy chain my wireless chargers?
Two UTS-1 chargers can be connected in series using one adaptor and a connector cable but only through the dedicated daisy chain power adaptor which must be purchased separately. Please see product details here.

This thing is amazing. Follow the instructions and you'll be as cool as I am with your charger under your table.
Great work guys.

We wanted to install 2 UTS-1 slim chargers in a 30mm deep, Formica and beech ply work bench. We had to rout out a hollow in the bench to reduce the thickness of wood to 10mm. This enabled us to hide the charger within the desk and the hollow is covered by a thin white vent that blends into the underside of the desk. The UTS1 charger fits neatly into the space and charges effectively through the beech ply. Bottom line, worked exactly as described/specified unlike the cheaper versions we tried initally.

I planned to mount a hidden, wireless charger on a client's custom walnut desk I designed but quickly became discouraged after seeing numerous low quality chargers that lack the capability of charging through anything thicker than 1/8" surface. The walnut desktop was 1.25" and I didn't like the idea of routing out such a deep space under the top.
I almost abandoned the hidden charger idea until I stumbled across Kew Labs on Instagram. What a great find! I went with their UTS-1 charger and was very pleased with it after testing its capability with some scrap wood. The desktop still required me to route out ~1/2" or so but no big deal. The charger still remained hidden once mounted. If you plan to rout, make sure you allow some extra room for the power cord and access to the settings switch.
Installation was simple and straightforward. I went with screws over the optional 3M adhesive tape just for safe measures. On the underside of the opposite end of the desk, I installed a hidden power strip where I could plug in the charger. Worked out perfectly!
I would definitely recommend this product and plan to use it on future builds when necessary! Customer service was prompt and helpful for the few questions I had. Glad I found this charger.

Overall works great. The charging unit is a 12v unit and the power supply adapter converts it to 110v. I simply cut off the plug end and exposed the red and black wires then connected those to the 12v power source behind me helm. Put in a 3 amp fuse and the unit powered right up. Mounting the charging unit became a task in itself. Its very very sensitive to thickness. 1/16 to thin it won't work and a 1/16 " to thick and it won't work. The measurements on the side of the box the charger comes in is spot on. Where I mounted it the plastic was only about a 3/8" thick and it wouldn't work but I also had to add a pad to hold me phone in place while running the boat so that pad made up the difference. The one mistake I made is I installed it on An overcast day. The next day the sun was out and I put it on direct sunlight so my phone overheats after about 15 minutes on the charger. My only complaint is that even at optimal thickness according to the side of the box the charging sometimes cuts in and out but I have a feeling that's issues with my phone (galaxy s10) because my wife's iPhone does not do it.
