#1531 How Flux Chargers got traction




Startup Stories - Mixergy show

Summary: When I work remotely I don’t like bringing my laptop; I prefer to work on my phone. But my biggest problem with using my phone is that it would kill my battery so fast. I was constantly upgrading to the latest phone and I STILL couldn’t do more than 4-5 hours of work with it. Well, last year I started doing research into batteries. I needed one I could take with me that would allow me to work 10 hours without the bulk of a laptop. I finally came across a product called Flux Charger and today I have the founder of the company that creates it. Today’s guest is Alejandro Rioja, the founder of Flux, which creates a portable charger. <p><a href="https://mixergy.com/interviews/flux-chargers-with-alejandro-rioja/"><img src="https://mixergy.com/interviews/flux-chargers-with-alejandro-rioja/?get-twitter-card=true&amp;" alt="" class="alignnone size-full"></a></p><p>Alejandro Rioja is the founder of Flux, which creates Flux Charger, a portable charger. </p> <strong>Sponsored by</strong><br><p><a href="http://www.toptal.com/mixergy" rel="nofollow">Toptal</a> – If you’re having trouble finding developers, Toptal is a network of elite pre-vetted software developers.
