Recharge Your Batteries (Literally) Through USB

Thursday January 8, 2009

Tired of buying batteries? Well, Moxia Energy, Ltd. has an answer. The company's USBCELL is a rechargable "AA" battery that recharges through your computer's USB port.

The USBCELL not only prevents you from purchasing more batteries, but also offers eco-friendly benefits. According to Moxia, 15 billion batteries are disposed of each year. Just one USBCELL can prevent 500 of those batteries from being discarded.

The batteries can be bought directly from Moxia at www.usbcell.com.
