Help out someone with a Pebble Smartwatch?

[EssoAir]

Hello everyone,


I think I lost the charger for my Pebble Smartwatch. All it has are two large contacts and a magnet for positioning. Does anyone know how I could go about charging my Pebble DIY style?

First thing that comes to mind is a powersupply with the right voltage and some stickytape.

Smart watch. Owner, not so much

Can they be purchased online or through the Pebble creators themselves?

How are they (the watches) BTW?

You need to know the output voltage of the official power supply.

Something like 4.2V seems likely...

I love the Pebble a whole bunch. Once my Pandora comes back I want to see if I can get the two to work together nicely. Mainly for music control, but perhaps for other things as well.

Official power supply?? It's a usb cable..

Ya, but they use a proprietary connector, and they won't sell any of them till all they Backers and Preorders have been filled. And the ONE person I know that has a Pebble lost his too, so I'm stuck with a useless wrist watch. I feel so lost.

Maybe a photo of the back of the watch?

Does it have any markings?

Here is a picture of the back. I doubt its helpful though

So instead of posting threads about your lost charger.. Dig for it

Ok, I don't feel like typing an explination, but I lost it at a Gas station that is now 200 miles away from me and I won't be going back there. So I know for a fact that it is gone and I need another solution to charge it.

Ah fair enough. I hope you checked your car properly

Sucks that its a proprietary connector.

They did that because it needed to be water proof.
