Portable Power

Today’s smartphones have a habit of draining their batteries quicker than a technician can drain a sump. Therefore being away from a power point can sometimes lead to a bout of anxiety when the device flashes up a low battery warning. People who are always out and about, in meetings, visiting clients, on days out, are the ones most at need of a portable charging pack. Battery manufacturer Varta now offers a range designed for the most common smartphones. The PowerPhone 800 comes with a Micro USB, iPhone 30-pin or iPhone Lightning adaptors each as separate units. It offers 150 minutes extra talk time through its 800mAH Li-Ion battery and can be attached to car keys to keep it near.
