charger
When your battery is running low and you forgot your charger, why rely on your friends? Make a little charge in your life.
We’ve all got at least one thing that we carry around with us that could use a quick recharge on the road. For most of us it’s our cell phone, but it’s not inconceivable to carry three, four or even more gadgets that could use a juice boost while away from home.
There are plenty of on-the-go solutions available to you, but soon you can buy one that says as much about you as all the portable gaming systems you carry around.
With all the constant updates to smartphones and other portable devices, you would think it would be easy to maintain decent battery power by now. But no matter how smart Siri seems to get, most people still have to charge her up on a daily basis.
Some companies have decided to tackle this problem by making charging more accessible, which is where the desk above comes in: this unassuming piece of office furniture also has a built in wireless battery charger.
