HyperMac iPad Stand Moonlights as a Second Battery Too

Tweet

It’s been a while since I last showed you iPad stands but I assume by this time you have plenty of luck when it comes to finding the right fit for your iPad model. Apple sold over 3 million iPads to date which means that third-party retailers have a booming iPad-related business right now. There are plenty of accessories available for the iPad as we speak but today I found a very interesting one, the HyperMac Stand.

From the beginning I’ll tell you that this baby costs $129.95 which is about 25% of what the cheapest iPad is worth in the USA, but this very simply designed device seems really worth it. Why? Because not only is the HyperMac Stand a stand for the iPad, and most iPads probably deserve one, but it also moonlights as a secondary battery which could bring extra juice to the table, when needed.

Now the iPad already has a pretty dependable battery life but just like with any other gadget out there, there are plenty of hardcore users that can probably complain about the battery not lasting long enough. The HyperMac is definitely a great gadget provided you’re willing to pay the price for it. At $129.95 it’s not the least expensive device one could buy, but it’s probably one of the better choices.

Built by the creators of the HyperMac battery pack for Apple MacBooks, the HyperMac Stand comes with a built-in 40-watt-hour rechargeable lithium-ion battery that’s ready to give you an additional 16 hours of iPad battery life. On comparison, the regular battery found in iPads is just a 25-watt-hour battery so this Hypermac Stand looks like a great solution for a potential problem. Here’s what else you need to know about this stand made by the Sanho Corporation:

• iPad Slots: 2 rubberized slots that holds iPad at 18° and 45°, portrait and landscape, case and no case
• Capacity: 40Wh (11,000mAh)
• Battery Chemistry: Lithium Ion

• Dimensions: 6.02″ x 4.21″ x 1.14″ (153 x 107 x 29mm)

• Input Power (Charging the HyperMac Stand): 10W Mini USB 5V (2.1A Max)
• Output Power (Powering the iPad): 10W USB 5V (2.1A Max)
