The “6″ generates 8 characters that are reasonably typeable. To get twice as many, use 12, which generates 16 characters. The ratio is 3 to 4, which is what I was trying to say in the show, and got badly backwards.

Anyone have a link for the charging iphone case that Alex was talking about. I googled for every spelling of mofee or mofie or whatever it is, but came up empty.
Thanks!
