Uniross has unveiled the Power2Go external lightweight battery for notebook computers, adding between three and six hours of additional battery power, in addition to the notebook's internal battery power.
“It will extend battery usage in some cases threefold, using the new lithium-ion polymer technology, which is more advanced than lithium-ion technology currently used in notebook batteries,” says Uniross marketing manager Michael Rogers.
“Although other external power packs are available, they are designed for smaller portable devices, and are bulky with limited power,” he adds.
The device, according to Uniross, will provide up to six hours of power on a notebook, 96 hours on a portable electronic game player, 7 000 extra shots on a digital camera, 540 extra hours of music on an MP3 player, and 112 hours extra talk time on a cellphone.
Rogers notes that the Power2Go will maintain its charge for a year after being fully charged and has a two-year warranty and a connector guarantee.
There are two models in the range, both equipped with a USB slot which can be used to charge other devices such as cellphones, MP3 players, or PDAs, the company adds.
