This is awesome! For only $450 you can get a machine that can automatically swap battery packs placed on bulky $120 phone cases.

You don't need to plug a cable in your phone anymore, your over engineered machine can swap battery packs for you

I never imagined that I would live this long to see the future

I was thinking the same for a similar use case at my job that would nearly cut the number of phones we own in half, but we don't need the stupid toaster to remove and replace the battery. I'm a goddamn cripple and can do that myself.
