Monday, 05 July 2004
If you can't live without a cell phone, then you may want to make sure you have a backup battery. Cellboost is a disposable battery for cell phones that works with many leading phone manufacturers.

Although no one plans to have his or her cell phone die, you never know when you'll be stuck without a charger. During the recent East Coast blackout and California wildfires, there were countless people who had their batteries die. They just weren't near anyplace they could reliably charge their phone.

In these situations, a Cellboost battery offers a quick solution to your charging problem. A Cellboost battery is a small disposable alkaline battery about the size of a matchbox and weighing one ounce. The size and weight make them ideal for stowing in the car, briefcase, or knapsack for emergency purposes. The battery uses a quick-charge transfer method that supplies power to your phone in two minutes.

There are different versions of the battery based on the phone manufacturer since power connectors are different. Each battery provides 60 minutes of talk time of 60 hours of standby time. The battery retails for $9.99 but you can usually find them cheaper online.

The company presently has batteries for the following brands:

• LG
• Motorola
• Nokia
• Samsung
• Sanyo
• Siemens
• Sony Ericsson
