Charge Anywhere With iGo Green Published on Tuesday, March 16, 2010 by

As a busy mom of two, running a household and working part-time as a nurse, I rely heavily on my mobile phone.  I use it to keep schedules straight, manage lists, navigate my way around town, and stay connected.  With all of that use, I never make it through the day without having to charge my battery.

Several weeks ago, I received a fabulous device called the Charge Anywhere, by iGo.  With this device, I can charge two things simultaneously.  For example, I can charge my mobile phone and my digital camera.  But what makes Charge Anywhere unique is that once it’s charged, it can charge other devices without having to be plugged in.  How cool is that?  So when I forget my charger at home, or it takes my car charger too long to make a noticeable difference in the life of my battery, I can just plug into the Charge Anywhere.  The device is portable, lightweight, and compact.  I charged my Palm Pre Plus the other day at Expo West when the battery was completely drained.  It took a little over an hour to fully charge the phone’s battery.  Not bad!

Along with mobile phones and digital cameras, Charge Anywhere will charge Bluetooth headsets, smartphones/PDAs, MP3 players, portable gaming devices, digital cameras, GPS devices and more.  The device comes with a standard tip but you can claim free tips for other devices on their website.  Here are the specs, from the site:

  • Works as a wall charger to charge almost any device while simultaneously charging its integrated battery for device charging away from a wall outlet
  • Two USB outputs for simultaneous device charging
  • Includes iGo USB charging cable for even lighter travel
  • Includes foldable wall blades that easily store away
  • Works worldwide; no need for a voltage converter when traveling
  • Charge Anywhere is one of the company’s “green” products.  iGo Green Technology automatically reduces standby power by up to 85%, conserving resources and saving money.

    Charge Anywhere is a fabulous little device for charging a variety of electronics.  At $49.99 it’s affordable, considering that one device is all that’s needed while you’re on the go.  The convenience and versatility will appeal to multi-tasking moms.    You can find Charge Anywhere at retailers nationwide.

    I did not relieve compensation for this post.  A product sample was provided to facilitate this review.

      Interesting! I’ll have to keep an eye out for this! I sure could have used it on my last trip!
