Whether you are a phone user or a gadget lover, one of the most annoying things about getting a new device is having to replace all of your chargers. For my current phone I’ve got a car charger, a spare mains charger at work and a USB charging cable that I carry around in my laptop bag. But what if I carried my iPod and PSP with me, or if my Bluetooth Headset takes a different charging connector to my phone – thats another charger I’d need to carry around with me! Thankfully PowerBloks make it easier to charge multiple devices with just one charger.<\/p>\n

\"PowerBlok<\/a>

PowerBlok Charging Adapters<\/p><\/div>\n

PowerBloks<\/a> are simple adapters that convert any standard Mini USB cable<\/strong> into a USB charging cable, and can also be used to convert Mini USB Mains and Car chargers to work with your device. This is great news, as it completely removes the need to have a seperate charger for each device you own. I’m pretty sure that you will already have a spare Mini USB cable<\/a> lying around at home that you can use to charge your phone, MP3 Player or games console – they even work on the new iPhone 3G. If you want to use this cable in the car or at work, just connect your cable to a USB Mains Adapter<\/a> or USB Car Charger Adapter<\/a> and you’ve got a fully functional charger that you can update as often as you like for a fraction of the cost!<\/p>\n

\"One<\/a>

One Charger for your TomTom, Bluetooth Headset, Mobile Phone and iPod<\/p><\/div>\n

When you’re in the car you can now use the same charger on your TomTom, your phone, your iPod and your Bluetooth Headset, just change the PowerBlok<\/strong> adapter to switch between devices.<\/p>\n

PowerBloks<\/strong> are available now for Classic Nokia<\/a>, Nokia 2mm<\/a>, Sony Ericsson<\/a>, Samsung<\/a>, Sony PSP<\/a>, iPod and iPhone<\/a>, with other manufacturers due shortly. We’re looking at putting together some bundle packs on the tips – which ones do you think we should do? What other devices should we offer adapters for? Feel free to add your suggestions below!<\/p>\n\n\n
