Rechargeable USB Batteries


Playaa

Recommended Posts

Clicky.

 

anyone ever seen those before? I can't believe it took someone this long to come up with such a simple idea...I'm really tempted to buy a pair but I don't actually have anything that uses alot of batteries....everything I have is rechargeable...

I picked up a pack of brand-name rechargables at Wal-Mart a few weeks back, with charger, for about $17 as I recall. The charger had a USB adapter in it. Reading the instructions, It seems you can use a USB port to charge your batteries. There's also this puppy:

Not quite as compact as having the charger in the battery, but still gets the same point across.

Yeah I saw those on thinkgeek a couple months back...cool idea but I was a little cautious about it...plus what's the fun in a battery that you can't throw out in a non-enviromentally friendly manner!

 

Typical Canadian!!!

 

I liked this better http://www.firebox.com/product/1144?src_t=...src_id=boystoys Now they just need to find a way to incorpeate this into CS lol

This'd save me a lot of trouble. For fear of hurting the environment I've just been eating my dead batteries instead of throwing them out.

Man oh man Preach I started reading the thread about rechargeable batteries then see boys toys at the end of your link. I reeeealllly need to stop making assumptions.

 

That would be pretty neat to have a suit that shocked you when you get shot. Just think about it though. You're in a full body suit all geared up and ready to play. Until someone shoots you in the crotch with a shotgun. Maybe it should be an upper body only suit.
