As smartphone case giant OtterBox continues to expand its product line, the company has dipped its toes in the wireless charger arena with the OtterSpot.
The OtterSpot is a stackable wireless charging system designed to be portable enough to take to work and powerful enough to boost multiple devices.
Fort Collins-based OtterBox announced the new product on Thursday, offering wireless charging to any Qi-enabled device, including the the iPhone XS, Samsung Galaxy S10, Google Pixel 3 and others.
The OtterSpot includes a small circular charging base and a charging pad with 5,000 mAh of capacity and up to 10-watt wireless charge speeds. The battery also features a dual-role USB port for simultaneous device charging.

The charging base can power up to three wireless batteries and one device simultaneously.
The OtterSpot wireless charging system starts at $129.95, which includes a charging base and wireless battery. Additional batteries and charging bases can be purchased to expand the system for $69.95.
"The ability to stay connected advances with each new smartphone and while a charge lasts longer than ever before, we're often still faced with the dreaded 'low battery' warning," said OtterBox CEO Jim Parke in a statement. "OtterSpot offers portable wireless charging so the low battery warning is never an issue. The ability to charge multiple batteries and devices at once ensures everyone in the home or office has a fully charged device all day long."
OtterBox also debuted a charging stand that allows for both landscape and horizontal viewing while charging for $59.
This is OtterBox's third major product launch this year, including the Amplify glass screen protector with Corning and the Otter & Pop grip with Boulder's PopSockets.
