FAQs
Does MuConnect 2.0 support data transfer?
Yes. Make sure that the switch is in data sync mode and you are ready to go!
Does MuConnect 2.0 support data transfer during fast charging?
No. You need to switch it to data sync mode for data transfer.
What is fast charging in MuConnect 2.0?
Mobiles when charging through laptops charge very slowly due to data sync. This gadget, when switched to fast charging mode, turns off data transfer thus allowing the mobile to take more power – so it charges faster.
Does fast charging work with my AC adaptor too?
No. It works only when connected to laptops or car chargers.
Is MuConnect compatible with Quick Charge 2.0 and 3.0?
Yes.
Will this come with MFI Certification for the lightning set?
We will pursue MFi certification once we reach the stretch goal.
How can I select lightning or micro USB pack for my pledge?
We will send out a survey at the end of the campaign where you can select which one you want.
Will MuConnect 2.0 support USB C?
Yes
Is there any patent infringement with Apple?
We have done our due diligence and found out there isn't any infringement on any patent.
How is MuConnect 2.0 water resistant?
The pin which goes into the phone will be reinforced with a silicon ring, so as it covers your port all the time, water and dust can not enter.
How is MuConnect 2.0 smart?
Different mobile devices have different proprietary standards to enable fast charging (like BC1.0, 1.1, 1.2, YD/T-1591 spec, Samsung Fast charging standard, Apple iPhone/ iPad Fast charging standard etc). MuConnect can automatically detect which device is connected to it and sets the standard, thus signaling the device to take maximum power. That is why MuConnect is smart.
What is the refund policy?
We will not be accepting any refunds once the campaign is over. For the InDemand Backers, you can avail refunds through fueladream as long as you have the option. After this time no refunds will be accepted.
Will the Type-C work with laptop?
No. Definitely not.
How does crowdfunding work?
Crowdfunding in India is a relatively new concept & is growing very quickly.
It’s a concept that allows a large number of funders (like you) to fund an Idea or a cause or event by giving small amounts of money online. Fueladream is a crowdfunding site and platform in India that allows for such a pooling of funds.
You can fund innovations & ideas on FuelADream and be the first to get these products or make them come true. You can also do a good turn by funding charities and causes through crowdfunding. When you fund a charity it’s more like a donation & you get small innovative rewards like a shout-out on a FB page or a thank you email from the beneficiaries.
