Drop the plug and forget the mat — the Federal Communications Commission on Wednesday approved a wireless gizmo that lets people charge their smartphones and other devices from up to 3 feet away.

The Energous Corporation’s Watt Up device lets users charge their electronics without being connected to the charger through the use of radio frequencies — a first, The Hill reported.

The company said the device was rigorously tested to make sure it met consumer safety and regulatory requirements prior to the feds’ OK.

Wireless charging devices are already available, but have to be in direct contact with the phone or other device they are recharging.

Stephen Rizzone, president and CEO of Energous, told the website that the approval will increase his device’s popularity.

“Older wireless charging technologies have received limited adoption over the past 15 years, and are confined to contact-based charging only. The FCC certification of Energous’ power-at-a-distance wireless charging transmitter is a major market milestone,” Rizzone said in a statement.

“Untethered, wire-free charging — such as charging a fitness band even while wearing it — is exactly what consumers have been waiting for.”
