Looks really good, It will work fine for the long road trips My wife and I like to take. It will also work great on flights around the country. I would be happy to own one.

My son is going to Thailand for a Humanitarium trip with his High school in April. We just got him an 80gb Video Ipod so he can watch movies on his 22 hour flight to Thailand. Something like this extra power source would be really helpful as he could recharge his Ipod on the plane AND when in Thailand with an adapter) I know he’d reallay appreciate this additional power source.
I’ve looked at local stores but cannot find it. Winning one would be spectacular.

Portable power is a must for vacations, especially on the slopes! Was hoping to give this as a gift for Christmas. Wish I new about this sooner.

I’m a film maker on the road A LOT! this would be amazing to have when you’re on a set and trying to think about a re-write or tomorrows schedule and you have your ipod drowning out the sound of the set… until the battery dies on you. Dum Da-Da-Da! Enter Energi! Glad to see one that really seems to last.

Yeah, if it doesn’t already work with the iphone, I’m sure they will be coming out with one very soon that is compatible. It’s probably just because the iphone is still so new that they haven’t developed it yet.

Chris, I agree with you, I’m certainly going to use it when I travel from Washington DC to California this weekend. That way I won’t have to recharge when I have a lay over.

I assume this will work with my iphone. I am handicapped and use my iPhone for everything including reading ebooks. but I’m always worried about running my battery down and not being able to use my phone.

The Energi looks like a good job of product development, but I wouldn’t buy one just to recharge/power an iPod. However, as a recharger for my iPhone, it’s irresistible. Why then, does the manufacturer specifically omit the iPhone as a supported device?

This will be great when I use my iPhone/iPod to stream lecture to students.

I have used one of these and absolutely love it! It is so handy when your ipod runs out of batteries, and its small so you can take it anywhere.

This would be really great when I am traveling back and forth between China and California. The iPod is good for just 3-4 hours of that 13 hour flight.

It would be a wonderful thing to know the battery is going to hold out for a full length movie on my next flight!

Fantastic accessory for camping. We could rock out around the campfire for an additional 20 hours.

Thanks!

This would be a lifesaver on long flights!

We have recently begun outdoor classroom projects where student have cases of technology equipment to help collect data for experiments. One of the items is an iPod where students watch instructional videos on the topic as well as the collection of it. They also use the iPod to record observations of the samples they are collecting. Each outdoor classroom event is an all day affair. iPods do not last that long, so they are forced to turn on and off the iPod in an attempt to save its battery for the entire day.

Our bands also use the iPods for practice sessions. Directors record music with pacing for the students to be able to practice independently. Directors also record the video from marching contests and then record their evaluations as narration and post those for iPod download. These are used on the field during practice by the director and each section leader. Again, video drains the batteries and there is no way to recharge in the field.

The Energi to Go just might be what we are looking for to remedy that issue. We appreciate your consideration.
