First look at new charger improvements

We take every bit of feedback we receive from our doppelgängers very seriously. It’s a product for you and we always want to make sure doppel is reflective of your wants and needs.

Co-founder and Head of Design Nell Bennett (actually, now newlywed Nell Häenisch - we’re still super excited from the beautiful wedding) is in town from Singapore and has brought over some prototypes of our new chargers - still a work in progress, we want to make the light softer and the pulses slower.

Some of our doppelgängers have informed us that they’d prefer better feedback from the charger to indicate when doppel has finished charging. We’re exploring new ways to do achieve this, starting with a soothing, pulsating light that is coherent with the lub-dub of doppel.  

Previous changes

Although this is a subtler change, it is not the first time the doppel charger has had a revamp. After feedback on the symmetrical design of the charging base, we changed both the doppel and the charger so that they fit together better. We also added a band to hold doppel firmly in place and an LED to show when doppel was charging.
