Duracell Unveils Advanced Power Inverters and Laptop Adapters
BETHEL, Conn., Jan. 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Duracell responds to increasing consumer need for dependable charging solutions with the launch of a new line of Duracell Portable Power Inverters and Duracell Laptop Power Adapters. The new portable power lines from Duracell are the first to market with advanced USB 2.1 Amp charging ports across inverters and laptop adapters, making them the most comprehensive line of USB 2.1 Amp charging devices available.
The demand for USB electronic devices such as iPads, tablet PCs, e-Readers, smartphones and iPods Hp 530 adapter continues to grow. In 2009, more than 3 billion USB-enabled devices were shipped worldwide and over 4 billion are expected to ship in 2012. (1) The five new inverters and two new adapters from Duracell with USB 2.1 Amp charging offers the latest standard in USB power and provides the high level of power needed to charge these power-hungry devices.
“With the popularity of USB and AC electronic devices continually on the rise, consumers are in need of efficient, dependable portable power,” said Bob Jacobs, Duracell marketing director-North America. “Duracell Portable Power Inverters and Duracell Laptop Power Adaptors provide consumers with the power solutions needed to stay connected to their mobile devices.”
Duracell inverters convert the 12-Volt DC power from vehicle cigarette outlets into 120-Volt AC and 5-Volt USB power giving consumers the ability to charge thousands of devices on the go including the iPad and other tablet computers, iPhones and smart phones, iPods and MP3 players, e-readers such as Kindle and Nook, digital cameras and camcorders, as well as netbooks and laptops. The power inverter line includes five models which can simultaneously charge two devices and range from the compact Mobile Inverter 30 and Mobile Inverter 100, the slim Pocket Inverter 100 and Pocket Inverter 175, and the Power Inverter 130 that fits seamlessly into a car cup-holder and includes AC, DC and USB 2.1 Amp ports able to charge three devices at once. All models are equipped with high-quality cooling technology which dramatically reduces fan noise and makes them the quietest, most efficient inverters available. Many current competitor models rely on internal cooling fans which can emit enough noise to drown out normal conversation.
The Universal 90-Watt AC Adapter Hp dv9700 adapter and Hp dv6000 adapter the Universal Energy Efficient 90-Watt AC Adapter are the latest entries to the Duracell laptop power adapter family. The Universal Energy Efficient model exceeds the stringent EnergyStar efficiency requirements and is designed to use 90 percent less energy than comparable adapters. Both models include 10 patented voltage-controlling tips to ensure safe, efficient power to all popular laptop models from top manufacturers including Acer, Asus, Compaq, Dell, Gateway, HP, IBM, Lenovo, Panasonic, Samsung, Sony, Toshiba and more. The additional USB 2.1 Amp power port can simultaneously charge thousands of popular handheld devices.
Duracell is also answering consumer demand for environmentally-friendly product packaging with an innovative new “green packaging” design. The new structure eliminates the use of plastic by up to 85 percent versus traditional “clamshell” cases and incorporates several leading-edge technologies that together make a significant positive impact on the environment. These innovations include 100 percent recyclable paper made from 50 to 60 percent post-consumer recycled paper, 100 percent recyclable plastic made from 100 percent post-consumer recycled PET plastic, Zero-Hassel Zero-Residue™ water based adhesive and vegetarian soy-based inks.
The new lineup of Duracell Portable Power Inverters and Duracell Laptop Power Adapters will be available in Spring 2011 with an MSRP of $29.99 — $59.99 and feature a 3-year warranty.
