Want to charge your mobile on the bike? Uno Minda has a product for you
Uno Minda has launched a USB charger for motorcycles with dual ports so two mobile devices can be charged simultaneously. It is priced at ₹ 194, and interested customers can buy it on the offline market—Flipkart, Amazon, and Uno Minda's website.
The manufacturer says that no, wire splicing is generally not required or recommended for Uno Minda USB mobile charging cables, especially for standard USB-A to USB-C or USB-A to Lightning cables. These cables are designed with integrated connectors and shielding. We would recommend that customers use the accessory wire that few manufacturers provide for such accessories so that the warranty of the motorcycle is voided.

Uno Minda says that the charger has a robust design and the port itself comes with a rubber cover to make it weather proof. The brand is also offering a 1-year warranty. The peak output of the charger is 30W /2.4A which should be fine for most devices. A USB charger comes in quite handy especially when you are going on tours because mobile devices or cameras can be kept charged then. And because there are two ports, the rider can charge two devices at the same time.

Kerala chit fund couple accused cheating depositors of Rs 50 crore in Bengaluru and Mangaluru
A couple from Kerala have been accused of cheating hundreds of depositors of over Rs 50 crore through a chit fund and finance business they operated in Bengaluru and Mangaluru, where people from Kerala were the majority of depositors. Over the last two days, dozens of investors have approached the Ramamurthy Nagar police station in east Bengaluru with complaints against A&A Chit Funds, operated by A V Tomy and Shini Tomy. The investors approached the police after finding the chit fund firm's Ramamurthy Nagar office locked and the couple inaccessible on their mobile phones. In one of the cases, the police registered an FIR on July 5 on the basis of a complaint lodged by P T Savio, 64, a Ramamurthy Nagar resident and an investor in the chit fund firm. He alleges that he was defrauded out of Rs 70 lakh by the couple. According to Savio's complaint, the Tomy couple had run the chit fund and finance business in Bengaluru since 2005, attracting hundreds of small and large investors with the promise of high returns. The funds deposited by the investors were allegedly being collected in the bank accounts of the firm and the private accounts of the couple. 'They have collected Rs 70 lakh from me and my family and several crores from others. When we visited the office of the company, we found it closed and the couple were missing. Their phones were also switched off,' reads Savio's police complaint. The Ramamurthy Nagar police have registered a case under section 4 of the Chit Funds Act 1982, section 21 of the Banning of Unregulated Deposit Schemes Ordinance 2019, and under sections 318 and 316 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita for cheating and criminal breach of trust.

Unlock hidden power of your phone's charging port by connecting these 8 handy gadgets you probably already have at home
While your smartphone may be a standalone powerhouse of computing, did you know that it also works with many tech devices easily found in your home? The charging port on your phone is not just for charging, it can connect to a surprising range of gadgets if you have the right cable or adapter. Here are eight devices you can plug into your smartphone's charging port, making your phone even more useful in daily life. If your phone is running low on space, just plug in a pen drive or an external hard disk. Many pen drives now come with USB-C or Lightning connectors, so you can move photos, videos, and files without any fuss. For bigger hard disks, a powered USB hub may be needed. Touchscreen controls can be tricky for gaming. You can connect a PlayStation or Xbox controller, or even a mobile gaming controller, using a simple OTG cable. Most popular games support these controllers, and it makes gaming much smoother. When you want to type long emails or work on documents, plugging in a keyboard and mouse is very handy. With an OTG adapter, you can use most USB or wireless keyboards and mice. This setup turns your phone into a mini computer, perfect for work or study. Wi-Fi is not always reliable. If you want a stable internet connection, use a USB-to-Ethernet adapter to connect your phone directly to your broadband cable. This is useful for video calls, large downloads, or online games. For sharing photos, videos, or presentations, you can connect your phone to a projector. Phones with USB-C can use a USB-C to HDMI adapter to mirror the screen. This is good for movie nights or meetings. If you like photography, you can transfer photos from your DSLR to your phone with a USB adapter. This makes it easy to edit or share pictures quickly, without waiting to use a computer. Printing from your phone is simple. Connect your phone to a USB printer with the right adapter, and you can print documents, tickets, or photos directly. Many printers work without extra setup, and apps can help if needed. For better sound in videos or voice notes, plug in an external mic. There are USB-C and Lightning microphones available, and you can use a 3.5mm mic with the right adapter. This improves the quality of your recordings. Your phone's charging port can do much more than just charge. With a few accessories, you can connect to many devices at home, making your phone more helpful for work, play, and daily tasks.
