Rayovac’s new mobile charging devices nix the need for cords and outlets

by Shane Henson — July 24, 2013—Spectrum Brands Holdings Inc., a global consumer products company, recently announced today that its Rayovac battery division has launched its highly anticipated new line of portable charging products that is expected to redefine the category.

With the new products, people need never panic again when they are unable to find an outlet or the right cord for a device. Headlining the group is the Rayovac 2-Hour Power mobile charging device, which has a shelf life of 10 years and provides instant power to Apple and Micro USB mobile devices. Other new products released are the 7-Hour Back-Up Power Pack, the Phone Boost Keychain Charger, and portable USB Car and Wall Chargers.

All of the products in Rayovac’s new line feature sleek compact designs, making each device small enough for storage in purses, briefcases and backpacks, the company says. Complete with long-lasting power storage, enhanced portability and the absence of charging cords, these devices rely solely on Rayovac batteries—no cords, no outlets, no electricity.

According to Rayovac, what makes these chargers unique is their ability to use an alternative source of power when charging a mobile device. Therein lies 2-Hour Power’s innovation: the ability to use trusted battery power as opposed to relying on finding an outlet, says Rayovac.

Residents at the newly renovated Addison on Fourth will benefit from upgrades made to control energy costs.

The Rayovac 2-Hour Power device comes ready to use and provides a mobile phone with two additional hours of talk time. The 7-Hour Power gives a mobile phone a full 100% charge with just four Rayovac AA batteries. Having eliminated the outlet from the charging equation, Rayovac has successfully created new portable charging products that can rescue any mobile device from a dead battery, the company says.

“With the development of 2-Hour Power and our family of other portable charging products, we’ve responded to unmet consumer needs by creating affordable, must-have accessories for the mobile device user,” stated Harrison Smiddy, senior director of Rayovac product marketing. “The all-in-one capability that these chargers deliver has taken convenience to a whole new level. Instant mobile power is now a reality that can be accessed anytime and anywhere.”
