iGo Unveils a Transportable Outlet—Charge Anywhere
Lightweight Charger Brings Power to Devices When Away from an Outlet
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--iGo (Nasdaq:IGOI), the leading portable power solution provider, unveils a new travel-friendly charger, the iGo Charge Anywhere. The new iGo Charge Anywhere is a wall charger that also has an internal battery, allowing you to charge your devices in any location, with or without an outlet.
Compatible with almost every mobile and gaming electronic device on the market, the iGo Charge Anywhere allows users to simultaneously power two devices while also charging its integrated battery to use when away from an outlet. Available now at RadioShack as well as online at www.iGo.com ($49.99 MSRP), the new charger not only works as a wall charger but also acts as a “transportable outlet” for maximum results.
“While we constantly develop new travel-friendly power solutions to simultaneously charge multiple devices, this lightweight charger is designed to be ultra portable for those who are on-the-go, especially while in the air,” said Michael D. Heil, president and chief executive officer of iGo. “This is a terrific power solution for use on airplanes, where travelers are frequently unable to find an outlet to charge their MP3 players, gaming devices, smartphones and other electronic devices that they use during their flights.”
With collapsible wall blades that easily fold away, the iGo Charge Anywhere stores enough energy in its integrated battery to provide up to three full charges to most mobile devices without the need for replenishing. Utilizing iGo’s interchangeable power tips, the charger is able to power nearly every mobile device on the market including the iPhone®, BlackBerry®, and Bluetooth® headset, as well as MP3 players, digital cameras and/or gaming devices by using the included iGo USB cable.
As luggage space becomes increasingly valuable, the travel-friendly iGo Charge Anywhere is one simple product for all travelers’ charging needs, in any location, whether or not there is an outlet. Instead of packing one charger for each and every gadget, travelers now only need to bring one small, compact iGo charger to power their devices.
