PowerTrekk charger – A Portable charger uses nothing but just 'WATER'
PowerTrekk is a pocket size, lightweight charger for users who spend time away from the
electricity grid. Providing instant power
anywhere, PowerTrekk uses advanced fuel cell
technology which cleanly and efficiently converts
hydrogen into electricity. With its rugged,
waterproof casing and robust technology on the inside, PowerTrekk is designed to match
demanding requirements.
PowerTrekk is a 2-in-1 solution that is both a
portable battery pack and fuel cell. The portable
battery pack can be operated on its own as a
ready source of power or storage buffer for the
fuel cell. The fuel cell enables instant charging
from a depleted battery state without ever needing a wall charge. Users simply insert a fuel
pack and add water. To charge portable devices – for example mobile phones, cameras and GPS
devices – users connect a device to Power Trekk via a USB port. “ PowerTrekk has a competitive edge over traditional portable chargers. Fuel cell power is
generated immediately and charging is not
impacted by weather or the position of the sun,
as for solar panels. Compared to battery powered
travel chargers, PowerTrekk offers reliable
charging as the fuel packs do not deplete as batteries do,” said Björn Westerholm, CEO at myFC, the company behind PowerTrekk. myFC is a Swedish fuel cell technology company
that develops solutions for powering portable
electronics. Having secured numerous patents
around proprietary shape-flexible fuel cell
systems with record high power density,
PowerTrekk is the first commercial portable charger using myFC technology. Since the
hydrogen fuel can be supplied from several
alternative sources, the system is “ flexifuel ” . The chemistry process is safe and eco-friendly, and
the only by-product from the fuel cell is a little
water vapor.
