myDOQ, a smart wall socket, opens its Indiegogo campaign tomorrow.

With an early bird 40% discount, over 8,000 supporters have already pre-registered their interest, says makers Lansdowne Technology.

“I’m delighted by the initial response that we have received”, said Neil Rosen, Founder and CEO of Lansdowne, “we are inundated with correspondence from people informing us of their frustrating experiences with their current plug socket systems and we look forward to making every day modern living easier for everyone”.

myDOQ powers and charges via interchangeable front modules. It syncs with Alexa and Google Home and is accessed via the myDOQ app, allowing programmable charging times to be set, which saves on energy usage and prevents the excessive charging of devices.

UmyDOQ operates two systems; the wall socket version for homeowners who are able to replace their existing sockets and a 4-way extension lead perfect for both renters / house sharers and those who prefer greater flexibility.

There are several front modules being launched at this initial phase, Universal US & UK pin modules, 2x retractable charging modules and a wireless charging module with adjustable cradle.
