The portable battery pack market is getting another addition to its stable come Nov. 1 with the release of Technocel's new $49.99 PowerPak.
The PowerPak is designed to work with devices that can charge via USB and is reportedly compatible with 95 percent of all handheld USB devices in the market. I asked the manufacturer what the power output was and I'm being told its 5 watts (5V/1A), which falls within the sweet spot of many USB-charged devices.
The PowerPak can also double as a direct charger when plugged to a wall outlet. As far as power storage, the device can hold enough extra juice for about 3 hours of talk time for smartphones (that typically translates to more than 30 hours if you're just listening to MP3s). Expect a full review once I get a hold of the device.
