nPower Peg Charges Your Devices as You Walk

So you are walking to school or work and your iPod suddenly drains as you forgot to place it on charge last night. Well if you have a nPower PEG you could be charging your device as you walk using kinetic energy. With the nPower PEG, you create power for charging your cell phone, iPod, and other handheld devices. Just place the lightweight nPower PEG in your bag or on your hip, attach it to your device, and you'll create energy any time you need it. The PEG works when you are in motion, so you don't have to worry about being near a power outlet or running out of a charge while on the go ever again. The up and down movement from your walking or running creates kinetic energy needed to recharge your devices.

The nPower PEG is compatible with over 90% of handheld electronic devices, including cell phones, MP3 players, handheld gaming devices, handheld GPS, digital cameras, and more. You can harvest kinetic energy to charge handheld electronic devices at the same rate as a wall charger, which means most devices reach an 80% charge with just an hour of walking throughout the day.

The nPower PEG addresses the problem of the world's increased demand for electricity, and consumers' lack of an effective alternative energy option. The initial potential market for the nPower PEG is composed of the 23.2 million Americans who carry hand held mobile electronic devices and walk for approximately one hour per day. The nPower PEG could remove 25.4 million kilowatts of power from the grid -- the collective annual electricity needed to charge 23.2 million cell phones at 3 watts for one hour per day (approximate amount of power needed annually for 21,000 households).
