KERO Products Launches MicroSuction Portable Battery
Portable Battery with MicroSuction Technology to debut on Kickstarter
Chicago (August 11, 2014) – KERO, the Chicago-based company that specializes in the design and manufacturing of Apple-certified accessories is launching their fourth Kickstarter campaign to fund production of the Power Annex, a compact portable battery with MicroSuction Technology. Inspired by gecko’s feet, MicroSuction Technology is a soft sheet of material that provides the ultimate removable sticking power with lifetime adhesive capabilities. The Power Annex has one full side of MicroSuction Technology applied to the device allowing the external battery to stick directly to the device needing charging freeing the user from bulky external batteries, wires and wall mount chargers.
The Power Annex has a slim profile. At a mere 0.35 inches tall and half the width of an iPhone, the design is compact enough to fit in a pocket or affix to the surface of your device without adding weight or bulk. Capable of adding extra life to any device with a USB charging cord, the Power Annex can quickly charge one iPhone 5 up to 75% power. LED flashing lights offer the user an easy-to-read indication of the amount of power available in the Power Annex and the Power Annex automatically turns off once the device is fully powered.
“The Power Annex is unlike anything in the current portable battery space,†says Roberto Meza, Co-Founder of KERO Products. “It is the only charger on the market utilizing the adhesive power of MicroSuction Technology,†he continues. Kegan McDaniel, Co-Founder of KERO Products adds “We were tired of being constrained by cords, heavy battery cases and bulky portable chargers, so we created a product that fit an unfulfilled need.â€
KERO Power Annex is available in black, will retail for $29.99 and be available for purchase December, 2014 just in time for the holiday shopping season. The Kickstarter campaign will begin on Monday, August 11 at 8AM CET and will be active through September 9 with the goal of raising at least $40,000. Backers will receive special promotions including the Power Annex and Micro USB and Lightning versions of the brand’s original product, the Nomad Cable at discounts of up to 40%.
