The Freeloader Globetrotter, is the complete Freeloader package that combines the Freeloader, an aluminium cased re-chargeable battery with solar panels with the Freeloader Super Charger for super fast charging.
Why we like it:
The Freeloader is an extremely hardy and compact battery recharger, and when combined with the Freeloader Super Charger it becomes a quick and flexible way to recharge many handheld devices. It is excellent for situations where you need to charge your mobile/iPod/camera and there are no power outlets to hand such as camping trips, travelling, etc. The Freeloader can provide two hours of talk time for a mobile, 18 hours of charge for an iPod and up to 2 and a half hours for a PSP. The rechargeable solar panels mean that you never need to be near a power supply to charge phones or iPods again.
How does it work?
There are three ways to charge the Freeloaders’ Li-on battery:
- via the supplied USB cable
- Detach and deploy the solar panels
- Attach the Freeloader Supercharger.
A full charge can take as little as six hours via the solar panels, 4 hours via the Supercharger or three hours via the USB connector. To charge hand held devices simply attach the required adapter and connect the battery to the hand held device.. The central LED on the Freeloader will turn red when transferring power, once all power is drained the LED will switch off.
The Freeloader Globetrotter is available in green or pink
