The ApplePower-owned ApplePower package could finally see the light of day in 2020, after information emerged that the project had returned and reached the stage of the show.
Filter and analyst Jon Prosser posted on Twitter: "They have not released power yet and are trying to re-engineer the coils to use the heat effectively."
AirPower is not dead?
The project is back inside. Not sure if they will complete it and then release it, but they have not yet been released, and are trying to reuse the coils to use the heat effectively. Prototyping is ongoing.

Burnout has always been a major problem with this project: Over-burning of first-generation prototypes was so great – and potentially deadly – that Apple had to install its systems and issue apologies to expectant customers, in one of the few failures. audience from the Tim Cook era.
Prosser added that the current prototypes are not compatible with the Apple Watch. "This is your biggest obstacle right now," he said. "They refuse to uninstall the version that doesn't work with the Apple Watch."
AirPower's selling point was its ability to charge many different devices – the iPhone, the AirPods case, the Apple Watch – in a smart and efficient w ay, to communicate with each other and to charge the charging properly.
There are chargers included in the market (we've tested one and charge for the iPhone, AirPods, and Apple Watch, but a bit different) but there are obvious differences for a device that best fills this useful role.
While this is hopeful news (for those of us who are Apple fans), we should balance our expectations. Prosser warns that there are no guarantees, even now, that an AirPower charger will be released.
(Keep in mind that Apple previously canceled the project.) It is not yet clear when the company will present the AirPower 2 brand; After the introduction of new iPad services, new MacBook Awards, new Mac minis, and new Powerbeats, it is likely to end the season, which could mean WWDC 2020 next event (only) online, there will be no physical event).
He is a respected artist with a good track record, even though most of his successful predictions are related to Google; It's hard to tell if Apple's contacts have done the job. However, he emphasized that "never run with a story without verifying it with multiple sources," which is reassuring.
And this comes with one test at least: Equal Opportunity analyst Ming-Chi Kuo recently predicted that Apple will introduce a "small wireless charging machine" in the first half of 2020, though it never asked for it to appear under the AirPower brand.
In fact, that would mean something different – a simple device that charges one device at a time, for example.
