Midday phone death is a hassle for anyone, but it gets even worse if you’re out and about. A new product can help you avoid that frantic search for an outlet the next time your phone’s battery tanks.
Lilliputian Systems has created a butane-powered fuel cell, which acts as a “plug in your pocket,” according to the company.
The device, which connects to a phone via a USB port, holds enough energy to charge a cellphone battery about a dozen times. After that, the butane cartridge can be replaced and the charger used again. It will soon be available at gadget retailer Brookstone.
Check out the video above for the full details.
Would you carry an extra piece of equipment around if it meant you could repeatedly charge your phone anywhere?
