Packed with Features
The Duracell Powersource Mobile 100 is packed with features that will keep you up and running while you are out-and-about. It combines a capable 100-watt power inverter with a powerful 4 amp-hour lithium-ion battery pack. Lithium-ion batteries are well renowned for their light weight, reliable rechargability, and a remarkably slow loss of power when not in use. This means long-lasting power will be ready to go when you are. The 100-watt inverter is paired with a grounded AC outlet and two USB sockets. It is strong enough to recharge your equipment's batteries and provide power for nearly all of your electronic needs --it can even power many small appliances. The included lightweight AC charging adapter will recharge the unit from any household electrical outlet. The DC charging cable allows for recharging via any vehicle cigarette-lighter outlet or compatible airplane connector. LED indicators signal on/off and battery charge status, so you'll always know how much power remains.

Perfect for Travelers
Duracell's Powersource Mobile 100 is ideal for those who frequently travel. If your laptop battery runs low or you need more play time with your MP3 player, portable gaming console or DVD player, just connect your device into the AC outlet and keep going. It can power your equipment directly, or simply recharge the batteries. The two USB ports will keep your BlackBerry, iPaq, Palm, or iPod devices charged and ready to go when you need them the most. Additionally, you can plug the unit in and recharge multiple devices indefinitely. The mighty battery provides up to 2 additional hours of runtime for a laptop, 12 hours of playtime for a PlayStation Portable, and an amazing 44 additional hours of music for an iPod. BlackBerry devices get 34 more days of standby, while standard mobile phones gain 12 additional days. The Powersource Mobile 100 not only frees you from carrying extra cords and batteries, but it saves you money as well as space in your bags.

Duracell Powersource Mobile 100 Protects Your Equipment
The Duracell Powersource Mobile 100 has several features to keep both you and your devices safe. Over-temperature shutdown keeps the unit from overheating under extreme conditions and prevents fires. The overload shutdown ensures that the unit's battery does not become damaged from over-charging. Low-battery voltage shutdown turns the unit off when there is insufficient energy to power your devices, keeping the internal circuitry of your mobile electronics safe from harm. An included Electronic Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter immediately terminates power if the unit is exposed to water or other liquids that could cause a short circuit. The Powersource Mobile 100 also comes with a one-year warranty.

Customer Reviews

OK but not great3
This unit charges my two ipods and my camera as I expected it would. It would not charge my friend's iPhone through the USB port although it would charge through the iPhone AC adapter. It extended my laptop by 30 to 45 minutes -- I had expected more. One thing I didn't like is that when the device itself is plugged into AC, it will not charge anything.

Hours of power...4
I have a DS and a PSP and both worked fine with it. I had a little bit of trouble trying to charge my iRiver Clix via the USB port, but I think it might just be the software with the Clix. When my Clix has power and I plug it in, it just says USB connected but it won't charge. However, if I drain all the power from the Clix then it will charge because it never goes into the Clix OS. It is what it is; portable power. It does tend to get a bit toasty when it's being used, so hopefully you have a little leg room where you use it. It is actually smaller than I thought it would be: 5.5 x 3.25 x 1.5 (approximately).

Power on the go5
The Duracell DC to AC inverter works great. It gives me about 40 minutes of power for my laptop that lets me run my laptop and charge the battery simultaneously. The end result is that it actually gives you about an additional 70 minutes of run time for a laptop. The package is a compact, low heat rejection device that is well designed with may vents. The 2 USB power ports come in very handy too. I can't wait to try it on a plane.
