Prong (company)
Prong is an iPhone battery case company based in New York City, primarily manufacturing accessories for electronic devices with their patented AC charging design. Prong's patented design allows users to plug their cases directly into an outlet.
History
Prong was founded in 2011, and first gained traction through its fully funded Kickstarter campaign with the production of the PocketPlug. The company has since introduced the Prong PWR Case, a removable battery case with integrated prongs.
Prong introduced its flagship product, the PocketPlug, at the Consumer Electronics Show in January 2013 after its 2012 Kickstarter campaign. It was first reviewed by The Washington Post, citing that they enjoyed the product, although adding the critique that a battery pack was needed and the product had limited usability during charging. The New York Times gave a similar review.

Prong (band)
Prong is an American metal band formed in 1986. Prong had two independent releases, Primitive Origins and Force Fed. The albums attracted the attention of Epic Records, who signed the trio in 1989.
