Sanyo Eneloop Stick Booster Brings AA Rechargeable Battery Power To Mobile Gadgets

Sanyo Eneloop’s new stick booster is a new take on the standard ideas of what a battery charger is, letting the lowly AA rechargeable battery boost any mobile device with a dying battery.

In the world of batteries, there is nothing more ubiquitous than the AA battery. Although I have no quantitative data to back it up, the vast majority of battery powered devices in the world today take AA batteries. Even many C and D batteries are nothing more than AA batteries that have been “repackaged” into one larger cell. While Lithium Ion battery packs are certainly more sophisticated and offer a longer lasting charge, there is nothing more straightforward than AA rechargeable batteries.

Sanyo Eneloop knows this well, since they are the clear product leaders in the rechargeable batteries market.

Their newest offering, the Stick Booster, allows gadget users to wield the power of the AA rechargeable battery in order to give a quick, albeit temporary boost to the gadget of their choice.

Why You Should Choose Sanyo Eneloop Over Apple’s Rechargeable Batteries

Emperical evidence suggests that the new, hyped Apple rechargeable batteries are actually just the Sanyo Eneloop brand in disguise.

One of the best kept secrets in the world of business today is branding. Companies can buy anything they want, stick their logo on it, and sell it as their own. It happens all the time. As consumers, it is sometimes quite obvious when a product is being branded by the retailer who sells it. Other times, however, it can take you by surprise.

Batteries — and particularly rechargeable batteries — are one of these products.

New, Hyped Up Apple Battery Charger Offers Greener Standby Power Outputs

Everyone knows that Apple isn’t in the consumer-driven rechargeable battery business — they leave that industry vertical to companies like Sanyo, Vapex, and Panasonic. However, behind the scenes, Apple has invested millions into the R&D of its own in-house rechargeable battery technology. The LiOn rechargeable batteries used in its iPad, iPhone 4, and latest round of MacBooks are unprecedented in how long they can hold their charge and continue to perform an optimum levels. This, of course, is great news for the Apple consumer, since most of Apple’s most popular product are mobile-based.

But just as Ferrari started out as a strictly race-oriented car builder and only eventually got into the street car business, so too has Apple thrown its hat into the consumer rechargeable batteries market, looking to share a slice of the A$ 39 billion dollar pie, which is projected to grow to A$ 56 billion by 2013.

Apple’s new consumer-based NiMH battery charger hit the Australian consumer market just recently and, even though a battery charger is a rather modest piece of technology for the company that brought us the iPad, iPhone 4, and MacBook, it has caused as much of a splash as many of its top-tier gadgets.

New Battery Boost Battery Charger Makes Up For Sluggish Battery Packs

Battery chargers are great for keeping rechargeable batteries constantly charged. But for mobile phone rechargeable battery packs that just can’t hold their charge anymore, the Battery Boost is a perfect option.

I’ve waxed poetic before about the benefits of the unheralded USB jack. You gotta love technology that both provides power and can transfer data simultaneously. Although the power-providing side of the USB ports and jacks are still being perfected, there are many upsides to the technology that makes me believe it may one day replace the common household electrical plug and socket.

While we’re not quite there yet, another new USB-based innovation has hit the market in the realm of battery chargers. Technocel’s Battery Boost is a remarkable little portable battery charger that is designed to come to the rescue of mobile phones, digital cameras, or nearly any other portable gadget with a mini USB port and rechargeable battery pack that suffers from a sluggish charge.

Batteries on Prozac? When Rechargeable Batteries Experience “Voltage Depression”

Whether you are a gadget geek or just someone that uses a ton of batteries, it doesn’t take long to realise that investing in several sets of NiMH rechargeable batteries will save you tons of money over the long term. Though rechargeable batteries tend to cost a bit more up-front, their lifecycle far outlasts that of even the most premium disposable alkaline batteries. What’s more, NiMH rechargeable batteries are significantly less damaging to the environment: nickel, the main ingredient in NiMH rechargeable batteries, is easy to mine, plentiful, and much less toxic when disposed of than alkaline batteries or the old NiCD recheargable batteries. When you do the research, NiMH rechargeable batteries seem like the “holy grail” of modern battery technology. But as you know, in life there is always a catch.

With some rechargeable batteries, their Achilles heel is depression. That’s right – your rechargeables can eventually suffer from “voltage depression,” otherwise known as “memory effect.”

The Lowly USB Port: Unsung Hero of Interactive Technology

Years ago, I was leafing through the world-famous Hammacher Schlemmer catalogue and came upon a most unusual gadget: a down-filled, cold weather parka, complete with a USB jack on the inside lining. This USB-powered coat was the first of its kind, and because USB technology was still relatively new, the conflation of apparel and technology seemed especially discordant. Unable to escape an unfortunate pun, I was seeing the emergence of a dangerous homonym: software versus softwear.

Was NiCad Just a Fad? Why NiMH Is The New Standard In Rechargeable Batteries

Remember back in the day when NiCD rechargeable batteries first came onto the scene? Known euphemistically as “nicads,” this first generation of rechargeable batteries was all the rage for a while. It seemed like the end for the golden age of disposable batteries: Duracell was on its way down, and the Energizer bunny had beat his last drum. After all, why would anyone ever waste their money on disposable batteries again?

However, if you walk into any supermarket, hardware store, or electronics superstore, you’ll find that the big disposable battery brands still dominate the market. Conversely, rechargeable batteries occupy only a minority share of shelf space.
