CES Unveiled: NRG Dock
Another innovative product I saw at CES Unveiled was the NRG Dock. Gadget docks were a popular present this holiday season, but the NRG Dock takes the idea one step further. You place it near a window and the solar panels will charge your iPod, Blackberry or Nintendo DS. You do not need to plug it in. You can keep all of your gadgets charged with the power of the sun.
Unfortunately, the photos from the event were unusable, so all I have are the pictures from their brochure and website.
These pictures really don’t do it justice. This is a tasteful dock to store your gadgets, wallet and other pocket items. The solar panel has four suction cups (which are not shown in these photos) so you can attach it to a southern-facing window.
If you have ever lost power completely and worried that your phone will become a useless brick, then the NRG Dock is for you. You could also use this camping, but it looks WAY better than something that you would have sitting in your car, gathering sunshine to keep your gadgets charged. If you want to be completely off the grid, the NRG Dock will work.
They also carry a version of the NRG Dock that you can just plug into the wall and charge your cell phone, MP3 player and handheld gaming device. It’s a beautiful addition to any dresser by the the bed and keeps all of your gadgets charged and in one place.
