An adapter is configured to be removably secured within each adapter slot. Each adapter includes a receiver configured to removably secure an appliance to the adapter via a charging port of the appliance. A power supply is operably connected to a charging mechanism which is configured to charge the battery of the appliance that is secured to the receiver of an adapter that is secured within one of the adapter slots. An auxiliary platform having similar components can be connected to the primary platform to expand the system's charging capacity. The adapters can include many configurations for different types of appliances. In this way, the user can customize their charging system to include a specific type, number, and order of adapters for organizing and charging their battery-powered appliances. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A modular wireless appliance charging system comprising: a primary charging platform;
