It’s not every day that we see a gigantic charger like the one in the picture here. And when we do spot one like this Super Charger we definitely have to show it to you especially if its sole purpose is to charge the iPhone 3G and 3GS.
The iPhone is currently Apple’s number one product. iPhone sales have spiked this year bringing in most of the profits for Cupertino. Analysts predict that 2010 will see Apple sell even more iPhones and that means the iPhone accessory business will continue to expand even more.
The Super Charger is an iPhone accessory battery solution available from usbfever.com for just $59.99. That’s not a bad price at all considering that the charger will offer you about 2.5 full iPhone recharge cycles. If you’re using the iPhone 3G or 3GS too much and constantly run out of battery power then this gadget is the thing you were probably looking for.
The Super Charger comes in either black or white to match your iPhone color and it’s basically a huge 3,000mAh batter. The battery pack weighs 105g and measures 4.5 x 2.6 x 0.9 inches without the iPhone inserted in its rightful place. As you can see, size does matter in this case, and although it’s a little too bulky to be displayed in public, this accessory could very well stay hidden from everyone’s eyes and patiently wait for you in your car or desk.
Let’s take a look at some numbers and see exactly what this monster battery has to offer:
- Standby time – 500 hours
- Talk time – 8.5 hours
- Internet use – 8.5 hours
- Wi-Fi – 10 hours
- Audio playback – 40 hours
- Video playback – 11 hours
Needless to say this charger is a more than useful tool if you frequently find yourself on board of interminable and very boring flights!
So how do you know when the Super Charger doesn’t have any juice left? The three LED indicators on the Super Charger will show you when it’s safe to remove the iPhone and when it’s time to charge the Super Charger:
- Top LED: red means that iPhone is charging; green means the iPhone has been fully charged
- Middle LED: yellow with the iPhone connected means you have to recharge the Super Charger
- Bottom LED: red means the Super Charger is charging; green means the battery has been completely charged
The Super Charger ships internationally too, so no matter where you are, you can consider getting it! What battery pack do you currently use to charge your iPhone?
