CubeSensors are battery powered devices. Current setup allows them to measure and stream data for several weeks, up to two months. The battery is rechargable by a standard micro USB cable – with a charger, a computer or the base station. The Cubes will tell you when their battery needs recharging, so you don’t have to worry they’ll run out of juice.

We designed the Cubes to be cordless devices that require no setup so you can put them in the middle of a conference table or in your living room. They give you the freedom to put them where indoor environment is most important to you.

However if you want to plug them in and keep them on forever, you can do so. The micro USB port used for charging them also acts as a power in. If you keep the Cubes plugged in they will act as mesh network nodes, relaying data from other Cubes to the base station.
