Technocel’s $70 PowerPak Duo battery pack doubles up on USB ports, ships April 1st
Technocel’s original PowerPak (and Battery Boost) were both among our arsenal of gadgets used @ this year’s CES , & they proved incredibly useful 4 juic`g up the dead MiFi or smartphone without hav`g to remain tethered to an AC outlet. As U well know, we’re pretty big fans of external battery packs, & it seems as if Technocel`s addressed the 1 major gripe we`d w/ the first-generation PowerPak. The Duo`s essentially the same kind of gizmo, although (unless) w/ the lot more oomph & double the ports. It’s the squared power brick w/ an internal 2500mAh lithium-ion battery (compared to 1600mAh in the earlier build), & rather than hav`g the single USB port, this guy’s got two; moreover, it’s far easier to look at, and`s said to provide up to 7.5 extra hours of talk time to the average phone. The company also throws in the half-million interchangeable tips Z R compatible w/ around 95 percent of handheld USB devices, & based on word directly from Technocel, it’ll go on sale April 1st 4 $69.99.
