Description: KINETIVATIONSINNOVATION FOR COLLECTORS Introducing the KC1 wireless charger for Seiko™ Kinetic™ watches. The KC1 was developed by the Kinetivations LLC Founder and Principal Engineer, who is an Electrical Engineer (and avid Kinetic collector) with more than 40 years of experience developing and manufacturing consumer electronic products. The KC1 has been designed and built to the highest quality standards using the latest technology, tools, and techniques. The KC1 is compatible with 10 Kinetic watch calibers: 1M, 3M, 4M, 5D, 5J, 5M, 7D, 7L, 7M, 9T*. Charging performance has been physically tested and verified. As well, the KC1 has been benchmarked against the legacy Seiko YT-02 Energy Supplier. The KC1 has many advantages over the Seiko YT-02: · Available now and supported with 2-year warranty and 14 day return policy· Silent operation (the YT-02 is very loud and annoying)· Higher EMF (electro-magnetic field) power which enables faster charging with larger watches like the 5M85-0AB0 (Kinetic Tuna), 5M62-0BL0 (SKA371-BFK), and enables charging of the 5D22-0AB0 Titanium Diver (the YT-02 will not charge this watch due to insufficient EMF)· Four selectable charging intervals: 30 minutes, and 1, 2, 4 hours vs. YT-02 only offers 30min and 3.5hr· 40% smaller desktop footprint The following Kinetic watch calibers were used to physically verify KC1 charging performance: 1M20, 3M23, 4M21, 5D22, 5D44, 5D88, 5J22, 5M22, 5M23, 5M25, 5M42, 5M43, 5M45, 5M62, 5M63, 5M65, 5M85, 7D48, 7D56, 7L22, 7M22. Some of the calibers were tested with both titanium and stainless-steel case variants. In total, 33 different Kinetic watches were tested and verified. KC1 Specifications: · Selectable charging times: 30min, 1hr, 2hr, 4hr w/LED indicators· Charging Time Accuracy: +/- 5%· Power Supply: Input: 100-240 VAC, 50/60Hz | Output: 12VDC 0.5A · International safety and emissions approved· Power Consumption: 140 mW (idle), 900 mW (charging) · Charging EMF Duty Cycle: 50% +/- 1% (will not magnetize watch ferrous metals) · Operational Temperature Range: 0°C to +40°C (32°F/104°F)· Storage Temperature Range: -5°C to +50°C (23°F/122°F)· Dimensions: 98 x 98 x 32 mm (3.9 x 3.9 x 1.3")· Weight: 185 grams (6.6 oz.)· Controls/Indicators:o Power: ON/OFF slide switcho Set Pushbutton: 1) set charging time, 2) stops charging if pressed while chargingo Start Pushbutton: starts charging cycleo (4) LEDs: continuous-on = idle, flashing = charging *Note: The 9T reference was not tested to date but is assumed to be compatible since the Seiko YT-02 lists the 9T as compatible and the YT-02 was thoroughly benchmarked against the KC1.
