What do you think of Christchurch's stadium plan?

Christchurch's roofed 25,000-seat stadium could be ready within five years but the pressure is now on to get it planned and built right.

The city council's long-awaited investment case says a 25,000 seat mostly clear-roofed facility is the best fit for the city, and could be built within the budgeted $473 million, including running costs. Temporary seating was not included but could be added later.

The chosen option would cost $472.7m to build and $485.3m to run over 25 years, of which $343m would be funded by stadium income, with an annual $4.2m council top-up.

Good for charging smartphones without wires, plugs or fuss. Easy set-up and charging. Works with over 100 phones. Includes one charging pad, one micro USB charging cable & one instruction manual. Unopened/still in box. I have an opened one you're welcome to try your phone on before buying.

How does the CircaCharge Work?
According to the instructional blurb, CircaCharge and all charging pads use a technology called “inductive charging." Basically, LiveScience points out, the charging pad creates an electromagnetic field it uses to transfer power to your phone’s battery.

CircaCharge’s website states the device works with all Qi-enabled phones. U.K.-based Mobile Fun provided the following list of Qi-enabled phones available at the time of publishing:

• Apple: iPhone 8 and up
• Samsung: Galaxy S7 and up
• Sony: Experia XZ2 and up
• Huawei: Mate series
• Google: Nexus 4 and up, all Pixels
