This is the age of the gizmos and gadgets and there are very few of us now who don't have at least a mobile phone which requires charging up every few days. We've all had that infuriating experience of "Hold on a second, my battery's about to g..."
But think of those poor people who not only have phones but PDA's, PSPs, iPods and digital cameras all requiring power. What do they do when their battery's dead and they're nowhere near a power source? Easy, they reach for the Power Monkey!
A PowerMonkey is a sleek little gadget that provides hours of extra power for portable devices. Think of it as a back-up battery that, once charged, holds its power without leakage for up to a year. Simply plug it into your gizmos and let the juice flow. You'll never be caught out with a dead battery again.
There are two types of Power Monkey. The Classic and the Explorer. Both come with a range of adapters to fit a huge range of appliances and come with a universal mains adapter so you can charge them up in over 150 countries. You can even use a USB port to juice up your Monkey.
The main difference between the two is that the Explorer can also store solar energy. So if it runs out of steam, leave it to soak up a few rays - ideal for those adventurous types who may not be able to plug into the mains easily.
The Blue Explorer Power Monkey is available for £64.99 and the Classic Power Monkey is available for £29.99 - both from Firebox.
