Roto Charger – The world’s First Truly Sustainable Cellphone Charger

Posted by Mircea on Friday, January 8, 2010


We all know that when we start to have problems with our cellphones, the best thing we can do is to buy a new one, because when something is damaged and than repaired, it will never be the same, as when it was new. Although, we can not afford to throw these mobile phones every day, so we have to use them in these conditions.(with inefficient batteries or other similar problems). For example in India, millions of old mobile phones are daily used to connect thounds of rural Indian Villages with the rest of the world.

I think that many people could use these old cellphones long time from now but for example in India many rural villages still don’t have acces to the electrical grid. So, when it comes to recharging batteries there is a problem. To solve this problem, I think that smart battery chargers are the most appropriate solution(I refer to those chargers that use solar, wind, kinetic and even human energy to recharge batteries). ideaForge company managed to launch a new type of charger which is said to be the world’s first truly sustainable cellphone charger. The device was called Roto Charger and it’s able to recharge almost all batteries by rolling the device on any surface or cranking the handle. One minutes of rotation can provide a talk time of approximately 3 minutes and 30 minutes of stand-by time. If you think that your mobile phone might be damaged by this system, ideaForge company guarantees that the device is safe to be used for cellphones.
