mPowerpad- Portable Solar Charger arrives
Third Wave Power Pte Ltd has offered its new mPowerpad, a multi-function, portable solar device that can power up digital devices and packed with functions indispensable for users operating away from the power grid, like AM/FM/SW radio, reading light, flashlight and ultrasonic insect repellent.
mPowerpad is said to require less than 6 hours worth of direct sunlight falling on its 4W solar panel to get fully charged. With its 2500mAh battery capacity, it can fully charge up an iPhone - at same quick rate as from an AC/DC outlet - while simultaneously providing reading light, radio and insect repellant for 4-5 hours. Through two USB ports, mPowerpad is capable of charging many types of devices and gadgets such as mobile phones, smartphones, tablets.
Third Wave Power, which is backed by commercial incubator Small World Group and Singapore's National Research Foundation, expects mPowerpad to begin shipping in January next year, with a recommended retail price of US$80 per unit.
