Powertraveller's new portable charger, the powermonkey-eXtreme gives you power to charge your electronic devices. Without boundaries - and thanks to the included solar panel, even in the most remote locations.
The powermonkey-eXtreme is the big brother to the highly regarded powermonkey-eXplorer, offering four times as much battery capacity!
This charger is the perfect tool for every traveler and outdoor enthusiast: It is waterproof (whilst it is closed/sealed) for 30 minutes up to 1 metre, shock resistant, and the solar panel can be attached to tents, rucksacks, or (car) windows via the included Velcro strap. Or just use it at home as an alternative and environmentally friendly charger for your mobile phone, tablet computer, MP3-player, 5V camera, GPS receiver, or portable game console!
Housing a massive 9000mAh capacity Lithium Polymer battery, the powermonkey-eXtreme offers you real power in a compact, durable shell.
The unit is capable of recharging most 5V devices several times:
iPad/Tablet 1-2 times
iPhone/Smartphone 4-6 times
GPS systems 4-6 times
Mobile Phone 8-12 times
Tips inlcuded for the latest BlackBerry, Garmin, HTC, LG, Motorola, Nintendo, Nokia, Samsung and Sony Ericsson. Mini USB, Micro USB and female USB DC cable for Apple iPod, iPhone and iPad, DC4.0 for PSP, e-readers and some digital cameras.
The powermonkey extreme has
two output channels; one channel outputs 700mAh max (standard USB) whilst the DC port outputs 2.1Amps max to support the
Apple iPad (iPad compatible cable included) and other 5v tablet computers (not suitable for 12v or 19v tablets). It's worth noting that the iPad can be charged directly from the standard USB socket but will charge faster when using the
supplied cable
via the DC out port.
The powermonkey-eXtreme can be recharged in three ways:
- via the solar panel
- via the universal mains charger
- via USB conncetion
The mains charger comes with interchangeable heads for Australia, Europe, the UK and the USA to give you power and great flexibility wherever you go.
You can use the solar panel to charge the powermonkey-eXtreme whilst it is charging your device at the same time. The powermonkey-eXtreme will be fully recharged by sun power within 15 hours in optimum light conditions. A solar energy detection feature allows for more efficient charging of the powermonkey unit in low light conditions.
The above image illustrates how a powermonkey-eXtreme could be attached to a back pack for maximum charging / sun exposure. (the actual unit displayed is a powermonkey-eXplorer)
The LCD screen displays the working status, charging process, and battery capacity level. Its unique one touch friction swipe ON/OFF control is designed so the unit can only be turned on once connected to a device and cannot be accidentally switched on when not in use. When your device is fully charged, the auto shut-off function will turn off the powermonkey-eXtreme after 2 minutes.
The unit has a very low static wastage (meaning you can leave it for up to 1 year and it will still hold 75% of its charge) and includes a whole host of safety features (short-circuit protection, over-charging protection, anti-discharging protection, low voltage protection) to give you total peace of mind.
Available in five striking colours: Electric Blue, Graphite Grey, Safety Yellow, Vibrant Red and the classic Black.
