Energizer’s latest industrial-grade flashlight will take LEDs to war…or just your next backyard camping trip.
The best part about the Energizer’s Wiimote Induction Charging System is that if you choose to play it safe with the rubber sleeves and wrist straps, you can charge them without remove that extra stuff.
Duracell vs Energizer was one of the headlining tech fights of the ’80s, as Walkmen chewed through cell after cell. Today, a better match up is the one between their rechargeable batteries.
Energizer’s Solar Recharger looks, at first glance, like a confused device. Is it an iPod battery extender? AA charger? Solar adaptor? Well, it’s all of these things, which is why it’s awesome.
We don’t write about batteries much on Gizmodo because, well, there’s not much going on with batteries in the consumer market. But Energizer has a new technology that they’re hyping for CES 2009.
In similar form to solutions we’ve seen from Nyko, Energizer has announced Power & Play recharging kits for the Wii, Xbox 360 and PS3. The Wii system (pictured) runs for $US40 and includes batteries and replacement doors for two Wiimotes. The 360 and PS3 Power & Play aren’t quite the same bargain, consisting only of a recharging base for $US30, but hey, Microsoft and Sony have already provided fairly elegant battery solutions for gamers. Read on for full details.
It appears that the Energizer bunny can keep going even when the power is out thanks to a new line of “Light on Demand” products that feature a wireless, removable, low-power LED light stick. Each one of these sticks includes a backup rechargeable battery pack that will kick in in the event of a power outage. More info after the break.
Update: Turns out Energi to Go hasn’t been tested to work with the new iPods or the iPhone, as Mobile Whack reported. It only works with the old iPod Nanos and the iPod Videos. Original post below.
We covered the Energizer USB charger before, but we’ve got some new details on how it interacts with the software.
Energizer has two widgets, one for Macs and one for Windows, that let you monitor the charge as it’s happening—in real time. It’s like a mini-episode of 24 happening in your own machine, except instead of bombs getting found, you’re making sure you have enough batteries for your Wiimote. Price is still $14. – Jason Chen
