I just realized how perfect the new induction charging pads that are showing up everywhere would be for remotes. You could just keep the pad next to the chair on the table where you always have your remote anyway, and it would always be charged. Are there any remotes that use an induction charging pad? Are the pads up to having beer mugs and coffee cups and pens and pencils and wot-not sitting on them as well as the remote? :-).
Currently they are still pretty gimmicky, that is untill manufactureers start building the technology into the products. Right now you hav to get an adapter to your device, like below. And since it is new technology, it's expensive, at least for now.
You aren't likey to see this on remotes for a few years, at least.
