The fobgina will not charge the fob is a true statement. However you do not need direct metal to metal contacts to charge things anymore. Inductive coupling can be used to charge things in close proximity with out direct contact. You know the Best Buy commercial where they keep saying "its bleeping charging"? The product being sold there is an induction charger for cell phones.
