Standard and Mini Version Make On-the-Go Powering and Recharging Fast, Light and Easy

REDWOOD SHORES, Calif. - Kensington Computer Products Group, a worldwide leader in delivering smart made simple™ computing accessories to the mobile consumer, today announced the release of its Battery Pack and Charger for iPhone and iPod that also comes in an ultra small and lightweight portable version - the Mini Battery Pack and Charger for iPhone and iPod. These new offerings are especially convenient because they simultaneously power and charge an iPhone or iPod, and they are rechargeable, as well. Kensington’s smart made simple design approach gives consumers a combination of two portable sizes to best accommodate their mobile lifestyles; the standard model is the perfect traveling companion for heavy duty power needs while the “mini” is designed for users to easily carry with them on a daily basis.

Recharging is straightforward and easily implemented with a simple USB dock connector.
