The main reason why mobile gadgets such as cellphones, smart phones, PDAs, eBook readers, music players, and portable gaming consoles are must-have for travelers is because they keep them connected and occupied at the same time. Waiting for boarding at the airport nor traveling on a good 12-hour road trip can be really stressful. But with these gadgets on hand, any traveler would hardly notice the time. Agree? For sure, you also have your own set of travel gadgets. Now, what do you do in case any of those run out of battery? Do you wait for the trip to be over to have them recharged? If that’s the case, then you better get the SANYO KBC-L2 eneloop Mobile Booster before your next travel.
The Mobile Booster provides up to 240 minutes of power or an extra 4 hours to keep you connected even on the go. True enough, it’s power on the go – so you’ll never run out of battery again. Losing power for your favorite mobile devices while on the go can be really frustrating. Good thing, Mobile Booster is here to the rescue. It even includes 2 USB outputs, so you can charge not just one but two devices at the same time. And since it can be charged via AC adapter or USB, you’ve got two options there. Plus, it boasts a lightweight, compact design, so no worries about the extra weight you’d be carrying because of multiple chargers. With the Mobile Booster, all your mobile devices are covered, which is really such a convenience.

Growing up as a kid, all you ever wanted was a bicycle that you see all the cool kids have. You might even remember putting a baseball card in the bike’s frame to make cool sounds as the card hit the spokes. Well, the bicycle we all know has upgraded to help us go green (as if pedaling wasn’t enough) by making a bike ride more comfortable and probably help reduce car usage.
There are already hybrid bicycles out in the market. However, their mechanism of charging only kicks in when you go downhill or when you are decelerating. You therefore don’t charge the batteries whenever you pedal, where most of your time do when riding a bike. This makes you worry that you could run out of battery whenever you are on assisted pedal mode when going uphill.
With SANYO’s eneloop Eco Charge Mode featuring the “Loop Charge” model, you also charge the bicycle’s battery whenever you pedal. The bike is also intelligent in terms of knowing how much resistance it will give you to run the dynamo and charge the battery. Like when you are on a relatively flat surface, it gives you more resistance than when riding on an inclined plane where assisted pedaling would kick in. This makes riding the bike more pleasurable, comfortable, and hassle free.
The company will start releasing this product in Japan on April 21, 2010 with a monthly production volume of 10,000 units. It will sell for 157, 290 yen or approximately $1,800.
Hybrid bicycles can be found here.
Sanyo, the maker of eco friendly eneloop products and other electronic gadgets, unwrapped its gift to mother nature on December 25 with its press release of the eneloop Music Booster. The Music Booster spawned from the idea that even in the entertainment arena of audio equipments, a lot of batteries are used. Like amps, graphic equalizers, digital effects unit, and multi-track recorders use 9V batteries or DC power source. But when batteries are used like when an outlet is not available, stage musicians tend to just use fresh batteries every time even if it is not yet exhausted just to avoid disruption during a performance. I do get the reason behind that but a lot of waste is created in that process and that is where the eneloop Music Booster comes in.
The Music Booster provides consistent performance that lasts a long time with its lithium-ion rechargeable battery. As with other eneloop batteries, charge is kept even for long periods of inactivity. Voltage level of the battery is sustained at 9V until it is exhausted, thanks to the voltage boost technology which results to high quality output throughout usage. A handy battery indicator is in place so a quick glance on it can let you know when you need to charge again. Sanyo has determined the standard usage times to be:
*Analog effects unit (Distortion / Overdrive, etc.: Current used about 10 mA): Approx. 50 hours
*Digital effects unit (Digital Delay / Digital Reverb, etc.: Current used about 50 mA): Approx. 27 hours
*Digital multi effects unit, mini amp, or graphic equalizer (Current used about 100 mA): Approx. 17 hours
*Multitrack recorder or synthesizer (Current used about 300 mA): Approx. 7 hours
*Electronic drums or percussion (Current used about 1,000 mA): Approx. 2 hours
Not using the mentioned audio equipments? You can get the Mobile USB Booster for charging USB devices on the go.
