A gamecard holder comprising a bottom surface, a back surface, opposing sides, and a front viewing portion that collectively form an elevated holder that is operable to be placed on any table or comparable surface. The front viewing portion includes a plurality of slots operable to hold various pull-tabs or game cards. The front viewing portion faces the player and is configured such that the height along the front viewing portion increases towards the back surface of the holder such that the pull-tabs, when placed in the slots, are viewable to the player. Optionally, the holder may include a retractable stand operable to transition the holder from a raised position ideal for playing games to a closed position for storing. As an additional option, the holder may include a support assembly for holding a portable electronic device as well as a power source and charging station.

One or more features of an electronic cigarette or an electronic cigarette charging case is configured to hold the electronic cigarette in place and inhibit it from rolling and charge the electronic cigarette.

A holder for an external electronic device is provided. The holder includes a body, a cradle rotatably coupled to the body and including a seating surface on which the external electronic device is seatable, a first driving unit configured to rotate the cradle, a wireless communication circuit and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to: receive data about the status of the external electronic device from the external electronic device through the wireless communication circuit and to control the first driving unit on the basis of the status of external electronic device such that the cradle is pivoted by a predetermined angle. A housing of the external electronic device can be foldable.

Devices and products for charging smart watches are described. According to one embodiment, a charging stand apparatus for charging a smart watch enclosed in a protective cover comprises a housing and at least one extension connector to electrically couple with at least one connector of a low power charging system for charging the smart watch at a first end of the at least one extension connector and to electrically couple with at least one side connector of a rechargeable battery unit of the smart watch formed on a case of the smart watch at a second end of the at least one extension connector opposite to the first end.

A conducted electrical weapon (CEW) comprises one or more switch devices and a charge storage circuit for delivering a stimulus signal via a deployed electrode. A charge may be stored in the charge storage circuit. A first switch device of the one or more switch devices may be selectively turned on according to the charge of the charge storage circuit. The stimulus signal may be delivered via a current flow path comprising the first switch device and the deployed electrode according to the charge of the charge storage circuit.

A vein imager includes: a laser, mirror, photodiode, optical element, and lens. The laser emits a beam of light at a first wavelength in a first optical path. The mirror directs the beam to form a spot on the target surface and scans the beam of laser light to move the spot rapidly on the target surface. The optical element bounces the beam of light from the first optical path onto a second optical path, and directs the beam of light at the mirror. The mirror also directs an image portion at the first wavelength, received from the target surface, along the second optical path and to the photodiode. The photodiode receives the image portion at the first wavelength. The mirror includes a bevel-shaped coating applied to each of first and second ends and/or rounded first and second ends by removing some material, to resist dust buildup.

A surface cleaner and floor standing unit. The surface cleaner comprising an air treatment chamber and a dirt collection region, the air treatment chamber comprising a closure flap associated with an air treatment chamber air inlet. The dirt collection region collects dirt during a cleaning mode of operation of the surface cleaner. The floor standing unit comprises a dirt collection region which, in a surface cleaner emptying mode of operation when the surface cleaning apparatus is docked with the floor standing unit, receives dirt that has been collected by the surface cleaner. The surface cleaner having an openable door which, in the surface cleaner emptying mode of operation, is open whereby the dirt collected in the dirt collection region of the surface cleaner is transferrable to the dirt collection region of the floor standing unit, wherein an electromechanical actuator is drivingly connected to the closure flap.

An e-cigarette PV that includes an air pressure valve or device so that excess air can escape from an e-liquid reservoir in the PV when that reservoir is being filled under pressure with e-liquid from a parent reservoir. The valve or device is a barrier made of an air-porous material, such as a sintered polymer or metal, coated with or otherwise including a barrier or layer of an air-porous substance that is not porous to e-liquid, such as an oleophobic material or a hydrophobic or super-hydrophobic material. The oleophobic material is one of: sintered phosphor bronze, sintered stainless steel and sintered PU plastic.

Wireless charger devices can incorporate various combinations of features, such as monolithic ferrite structures to shield the inductive coil that include sidewalls to confine flux, a common-mode choke integrated with the ferrite, and/or robust grounding of the ferrite and an electric shield. Such devices can provide increased power transfer capability in a compact form factor.

A wireless earphone may include a first group of contact electrodes, an earphone module, a power module, and a control module. The contact electrodes contact a second group of contact electrodes of a charger to establish an electrical connection between the wireless earphone and the charger. The earphone module outputs a sound signal. The power module provides operating power to the earphone module. The power module is charged from the charger via the first group of contact electrodes. The control module is configured to: in response to establishment of the electrical connection between the wireless earphone and the charger, perform control to prohibit charging the power module using charging power from the charger within a first time period; and after expiration of the first time period, perform control to allow charging the power module using the charging power from the charger.
