IC Case
The IC Case is the charging case for quad tags with a USB Micro connector — the tags of ICTRAC and the anchors of the FiRa set. It serves for storage, transport and charging alike: every tag placed in it charges simultaneously once the case is connected to mains. With 1000 mAh of battery capacity and 220 mA of charging current, a tag is full after five hours at most.
The tags of ICPROX have a pogo connector instead of USB Micro and do not fit these cradles; they charge in the ICPROX charging cradle.
The case is freely fitted out inside: it offers uniform slots that take charging cradles for the various form factors — for tags, for anchors, for a mixed load. In the Case32 and Case105 the power supply is built in; a 230 V cable is all it needs. The Case10 is powered by a USB charger.

Which case? The Case10 is the small version for up to ten tags of one form factor, for example for the FiRa set. The Case32 takes a mixed load, anchors included. The Case105 has more than three times as many slots, but only for tags.
Charging cradles
The cradles determine what the case accepts. They drop into the slots and can be rearranged at any time.

Putting it into service
- Fit the matching cradles — they snap in, no tools needed.
- Connect the case to a Schuko socket. The green indicator reports readiness.
- Insert the tags. If a slot shows red, the tag is not seated properly or is faulty — cross-check that slot with another tag.
