USB Cell Rechargeable Battery

20 September 2006

A recent battery shortage here at CH HQ has left us all digging through drawers to try to find power for our Bluetooth keyboards. The USB Cell Rechargeable Battery from Moixa seems like a clever solution, turning any USB port into a battery charger. Currently available only in AA format, other standard sizes as well as camera and phone batteries are set to launch soon, making clunky chargers and enviromentally hazardous alkaline batteries obsolete. Two-packs are available online for Â£13.
