Tired of carrying a bunch of plugs and wires to keep your electronic devices charged?
The Arroe can charge any laptop and is only the size of a tablet.
The portable battery provides multiple charging tips to fit nearly any laptop and through its companion app can determine the proper charging output for around one to one and a half full charges.
Randolph Manderstam, who works on Arroe, says that will tell the battery what voltage to put so laptops are being charged at a safe voltage.
The app connected to the Arroe can remotely monitor a laptop’s battery and other smart devices’ battery levels to give low power alerts and smart charging functions that will extend battery life.
“What that will do is in a year or twos’ time, you are going to have much more battery life out of your devices than you would if you were just charging normally,” Manderstam says.
The side of the Arroe has other USB charging ports that can charge mobile devices with wireless charging options.
The Arroe charger is $250 and comes with adapters to charge most laptops or devices.
