Energizer have announced that they will be making a new line of Battery packs for the latest of your mobile gadgets called the "Energi-To-Go" Gaming power packs. These battery packs should have all the power of the patented Energizer rabbit that just keeps on going to reload your favourite gadget with power. Although no specific details on how much power Energizer will squeeze into these packs  have yet been released, expect them to go far, just like the bunny.

The Energi-To-Go  Gaming power packs will benefit PSP, DS and GBA users by providing a 4 battery power pack which is fully rechargeable and an adaptor for your preferred device. The Energi-To-Go range will also cover cellphones for just $19.95, fitting over 100 models from top brands such as Nokia and Samsung, and will contain 2 Energizer e2 lithium AA batteries. iPod users also benefit from the Energi-To-Go Audio range, which covers the Apple iPod, iPod Nano and iPod Mini. The Audio range users 4 Energizer AA batteries along with the Gaming power pack.

The Energizer Energi-To-Go Power Packs are expected to go on sale in September this year, with of the 4 battery packs (Audio/Gaming) retailing at $29.99. This all sounds good, but the real question is - how much power will you get for your buck? Will this thing cut out whilst your making an emergency call, or just finishing the last level of your favourite PSP/DS game?

Yes i am stupid, for two reasons.

1. I should have first of all stated that extra battery life is a great and welcome addition.

2. Energizer is the rabbit icon. Sorry i realy was having a silly moment.

# yeah i rememberGuest 2006-06-15 12:18
i remember they used the same idea.

i think it went something like this - the duracel bunny would outlive any other battery, so in the energiser bunny ads they showed the duracells dying and the energiser ones going and going.

classic. :D

If it's basically just a plastic box that has compartments for 4 batteries going to your recharge port, it's a lot cheaper to just make this yourself.

# lose the brand name and they already exist!Guest 2006-06-15 14:17
Same product except it uses four AAA batteries for $5.25 US. I've got one of these - works as described. I even use it to do firmware updates when it demands to be plugged in.

Here is a fancier model for $7.99 US and it has an 1800mAh rechargeable battery and clips onto the PSP.

Oh, and buy your batteries at Costco or something so they ain't $8 for four...

I like the idea of an extra battery pack without removing my current battery. Thougt the name should be change, Batteries have always been protable anyway, on the go sounds pretty... redundant (althougt I felt tempted to write "stupid" and "retarded")...
