The FreeCharge 12V
Personal Energy Source is a lightweight, durable and efficient power source
for mobile phones and other electronic devices. The self-charge system is
powered entirely by winding a hand crank, so is independent of all
conventional power supplies or batteries, enabling you to make and receive
calls, or charge other personal electronic devices, at any time.
The FreeCharge 12V consists of a generic base unit and interfaces to the
coupled device through a generic cigarette lighter socket. The charging
protocols are matched to each paired device by plugging in a cigarette
lighter charger specific to each device (not supplied). With a comfortable
and sustainable winding effort, the FreeCharge 12V will adapt its output to
match the requirements of the recipient device via the cigarette charger.
Regulated to deliver the same voltage output as an automobile while
cranking, the FreeCharge 12V provides a portable power supply for a wide
range of applications using up to 12V. The FreeCharge 12V is equipped with
an LED charge level indicator that illuminates when the crank handle is
turned at an optimum speed. Charge and talk times will vary between devices
and accessory chargers.
The FreeCharge 12V has no internal battery, allowing for the direct and
efficient transfer of energy directly into the recipient device. Internal
mechanical components are specified to industrial standards for repeated use
and long life. There are no degradable components – offering extended
storage life without any decay in performance – the generic cigarette
lighter interface providing both forward and reverse compatibility for
practically all mobile phones and personal electronic devices (iPod, GPS,
PDA etc.), from obsolete older models to those yet to be released. |
