High Wycombe, UK, January 20th, 2006 – GEAR4, formerly PodGear™ - The new brand from Disruptive Technology Channels to cover more than just iPod accessories today announces the PocketPower – A reserve power pack for all iPod’s and any other USB device.
Tom Dudderidge, managing director, Disruptive Technology Channels, commented: “The PocketPower is the first of ten new exciting products to be launched within the next few weeks from GEAR4. The reserve power pack is perfect for anyone, who like myself, has the problem of electronic gadgets running out of juice whilst away from home or the office. The PocketPower comes complete with four AAA rechargeable batteries that can be charged via the USB on your computer, and then at the flick of a switch, they can provide power for your iPod or any other USB device. The PocketPower has the added advantage of being able to charge any electronic device with a USB charger slot, which highlights GEAR4’s gradual trend to diversify away from just iPod specific products”
Dudderidge continued, “The use of AAA batteries in the PocketPower means that it is more flexible than other lithium iron battery back-ups available on the market. If you don’t have access to a USB power source to charge up the PocketPower, you will be able to charge your iPod or phone just from normal AAA batteries. No longer will people have to travel in silence or miss that important telephone call.”
PocketPower for all iPod’s and other USB device’s – A 2 in 1 reserve power pack and AAA battery recharger for all iPod’s and other USB device’s. This sleek, sexy lightweight and portable power pack provides an additional 8 hours of playtime to your iPod, but will also work with any USB charging device such as cameras or phones.
