StrongVolt, a leader in portable solar chargers, just announced a breakthrough in portable solar charging. Their new SmartCharger with SunTrack Technology automatically restarts the charging after clouds or shade disrupt the connection, solving an industry wide problem.
Presently, other solar chargers require you to manually unplug and re-plug in your device to restart; but SunTrack Technology automatically restarts when it senses that the clouds have cleared so you will never worry if your device is charging. StrongVolt's newest model is fully compatible with Apple devices, a feature many portable chargers can't offer.
StrongVolt used Kickstarter.com, a crowdfunding website, to support the manufacture of the SmartCharger, setting off a torrent of donors. In less than 24 hours, they exceeded their $10,000 goal (now earning more than $30,000) because of strong interest.
The founder of StrongVolt, Ian Sells, stated, "We have thousands of satisfied customers and a track record for innovative products. SmartCharger's strong reception on Kickstarter demonstrates the powerful consumer demand for reliable solar chargers."
Solar chargers are increasingly essential for powering outdoor activities and their devices, such as hiking and camping. They are also a necessity for emergencies when a dead battery could mean no communication to get help. With their new SunTrack technology, SmartChargers will become the most efficient, and easy-to-use, solar chargers on the market. With the addition of LED indication lights and a device selector switch, Ian Sells believes that, "We have developed the ultimate solar charger."
StrongVolt is based in San Diego, California. They sell solar chargers, bluetooth speakers, and power banks.
