Gosh darn it, this is one seriously good-looking accessory – and it’s packing tech features too!
Firebox have emailed me to let me (and now you too) about the MiLi iPhone Power pack charger, that not only provides a case, but in-built battery too:
The MiLi is a rechargeable (via USB) external battery concealed inside a svelte protective hard-shell case, and it offers twice, yes twice, the battery life of the iPhone alone – up to 390 hours standby time. Waddya think of them apples!
Crafted in über tough plastic, the snug fitting MiLi has all the trimmings you’d expect to find in a top end charger/case and even some extra gravy in the form of several ingenious features. For starters, clever design means you can sync your iPhone with iTunes and charge it via USB while it’s still snuggled up inside the MiLi. Think of it as a power ‘suit’ for your favourite gizmo.
Talking of gravy, you’d have to be a right pud not to appreciate the value of this gorgeously designed accessory as it’s also capable of charging other USB-friendly devices. Simply plug your gadgets iinto the MiLi’s ‘out’ socket and let its 2000mAh lithium polymer battery do the rest. Flash Harry Bigbuttons can even charge two iPhones at the same time.
The MiLi continues to cut the edge in other areas: an integrated LED displays charge status, while smart jiggery-pokery instructs the iPhone to always drain the MiLi’s battery first, so if you do remove your iPhone its battery won’t be sapped. What’s more, once you plug your MiLi-clad iPhone into a USB socket both gizmos will be charged simultaneously. iSay, iSay, iSay!
It’s a hot bit of kit isn’t it! I am trying to source one now for review, but I’d be interested to hear from anyone that does have one already?
Anyway, you can buy one from Firebox here, for the princely sum of £49.95 – bargain!
