universal charger powered by usb

The Ecosol Powerstick is a universal device for quickly and easily recharging portable devices in a pinch.

Designed for on-the-go charging of PDAs, MP3 players, digital cameras, mobile phones and other mobile gadgets, the Powerstick hooks up to any USB port and stores a charge in an small lithium polymer battery for later use. The stick features an easy-to-read “fuel gauge,” with simple “E” and “F” indicators to tell you how much charge you have left.

A fully charged stick should provide an average mobile phone with about 3 hours of talk time on a 35 minute charge. It takes about 90 minutes to fully charge the Powerstick, but that’s something you can do in advance before heading out on the road. Pricing and a release date have not been announced.
