As the number of portable devices each user carries around on a daily basis has virtually skyrocketed over the past few years, the issue of keeping each device charged and ready to function has become quite an important one. This is the reason why the people over at Brando have launched in the second half of 2007 the USB Mini Battery (manufactured by the Just Mobile company under the Just Mobile Gum name), a portable charger that will help users solve the issue of empty batteries and prevent their devices from running out of juice when they least expect it.



As most other devices of this type, the USB Mini Battery incorporates a 2200 mAh Li-Ion battery, which is charged via a Mini USB connector 5VDC, 500mA Min. and also features a 5VDC, 1000mA USB Type A connector for charging the devices connected to it.

The device from Brando also sports a 3-level LED indicator, which informs the users of the charger's status and output power. Moreover, since it's designed to work on the go, it is also very portable, measuring around 70 mm x 35 mm x 21 mm, at a weight of around 69 grams.



The USB Mini Battery from Brando retails for around 40 US dollars, which is well within the market limits for this brand of devices that have become extremely popular and widespread these days.
