Many smartphone users carry a power bank with them every day because their phone’s battery cannot last an entire day. Some carry a power bank for emergency purposes. Just in case the battery dies and there is no power outlet available or if they don’t have a charging cable. The problem with power banks is that it is yet another device that you have to remember to keep charged. We can’t remember the number of occasions that when we plug in our drained phone to our power bank only to find that the battery on the power bank is empty as well. What we probably need is something like the Mobeego disposable power bank.
The Mobeego disposable and recyclable power bank didn’t seem to make much sense initially. The device itself is fairly small and it can easily fit in your pocket or on your key ring. However there are similarly sized rechargeable batteries available. The device is made up of 2 components, the small cylinder shaped battery and the adapter. The battery itself is a disposable and recyclable component. This probably makes the Mobeego a greener product but it is not really much cheaper than a non-disposable battery charger.
So what is the point of the Mobeego then? The answer lies in the fact that the battery can hold its charge for up to 10 years. In comparison, a very good quality power bank can hold its charge for up to 6 months but most cheap power banks will only last 4-6 weeks at most. This means that even if you don’t make use of the power bank at all, it will deplete in just over a month. This is not an issue if you use your power bank daily and remember to recharge it at the end of the day.
The Mobeego is targeted at users who want a tiny lightweight emergency portable phone charger they can rely upon whenever they want without the hassle of remembering to keep it charged. It can be comforting to know that you have a 600 mAh power bank with you that you can rely on to provide up to 4 hours of extra use of your phone. That should be more than enough for you to make that emergency phone call, send that important email, take that once-in-lifetime photo or even catch that rarest of rare Pokemon.
The fact that the battery is recyclable and you are helping to make the world a better place is just an added bonus. One other plus point about the Mobeego is that there are 2 different adapters available, a microUSB version and an Apple Lightning version but both versions are compatible with the same recyclable battery. If you own both types of devices, you can just bring one battery with you. Additional “battery cans” are available for sale separately without the adapter.
