JuiceCan Portable Power Recharger

There are a couple of things about the JuiceCan Portable Power Recharger I want to mention to y’all.  First is the most obvious one:  It’s a device that’s more eye-catching than your typical flat-black brick o’ power.  Now, I prefer the “form over function” design strategy, and my portable power brick is pretty dull looking, but lots of people like a little style.  That’s where the JuiceCan scores higher; it’s interesting looking.I’ve mentioned it before but I think that it bears repeating: In an era where we are vastly increasing the number of rechargeable batteries we deal with every day–primarily from having them installed in our various mobile devices–having quick and easy ways to recharge them on the go is really important.  Which is why I am always happy to give you folks news on a new option in the area of portable, rechargeable devices like this here Indiegogo project, the JuiceCan.

The other thing to note is that while the JuiceCan itself has a power supply of 7800 mAh, you can hook these suckers together to give you more available recharge power:

So if you’re planning on going on a longer trip, hey, you can hook those babies all together and you’re set, instead of having to do what I am usually stuck doing:  Draining one power brick, and then moving on to another power brick.

The “JuiceCan: Colorful, Scalable, Rechargeable Mobile Power Can” is being crowdfunded on Indiegogo until 2/28/2013.  Surf on over and check it out, and if you fund it (or just have opinions), be sure to let us know what you think below!

Doug is a nerd from way back, falling for a Commodore PET at the age of 15, and never looking back. Riding the nerd wave, he got a Computer Science degree and entered the tech industry at a young age, deciding after a year and a half of front-line phone technical support that he should try something, *anything* else. He settled on technical writing, and has been cranking out documentation for companies like Unisys, SGI, Cisco, Juniper, and many others ever since. He is nothing short of ecstatic to be working for H-P from his home base in Austin.
