June 2011, Singapore- I received yet another USB charger in the mail, in time for my trip to Brisbane for the Hotmail Katy Perry Experience. This USB charger is Sony Electronic’s latest, which boasts a capacity of 4,000 mAh.
As part of my work and a social media practitioner, I am frequently on my mobile phone. Carrying 2 smartphones also meant that I am constantly connected and never running out of power when I am on-the-go is important. I tweet on the go, reply to work emails on my Blackberry, and take photos with my iPhone so that I could Instagram while in Brisbane, portable power came in handy. Furthermore, it’s bad to keep charging your phones unless the battery is close to running out of power and the last thing I would want is to be on the go and have no more power for my phones.
The portable power supply and adaptor is compatible with most USB-powered devises such as smartphones, mp3 players and game consoles. Other specs include:
- Battery capacity of 4,000 mAh
- 2 USB ports for simultaneous charging of 2 USB-chargeable devices
- USB Authentication software for instant charging
- Conventional AC input for fast charging
- Detachable USB output module with built-in Li-ion rechargeable battery for portable power supply
- Comes with two USB ports
Additional Run Time (depending on the specifications of the device and the mode of operation.
• Portable Phone – up to 17 Hours
• Portable Music Player – up to 48 Hours
• Portable Games – up to 35 Hours
Sony’s USB Charger is also equipped with USB Authentication software, allowing instant charging with most USB powered devices such as smart phones, mobile phones, Walkman, iPod, iPad, portable game consoles as well as upcoming models of Cybershot and Handycam with USB power supply function.
Other than its size, which is ostensibly larger than most other portable power chargers in the market, the Sony USB Charger CP-A2L has served its purpose well.
The Sony USB Charger CP-A2L was launched during the IT Show 2011 at a suggested retail price of S$49.90 inclusive of GST.
