Until now, motorcyclists and others who travel on two-wheels, on foot, by horse or on water have had to make do with a measly couple of hours’ use out of their GPS device as this is about all most GPS built-in batteries can manage.
But now, road users other than just those on four wheels need to be away for more than a couple of hours. And generally, it’s when you’re on those longer journeys that you have the greatest need for a GPS device.
Sandberg has come up with a couple of solutions to this in the form of Sandberg PowerBanks. These are portable batteries in different sizes which are charged using the mains power socket at home, giving you plenty of power on the go.
A typical GPS device gains more than 10 hours of extra operating time using the generous PowerBank 8000.
There are output connections for either one or two USB ports, which are gradually becoming the standard for everything from speakers and MP3 players to GPS devices, mobiles and tablet devices. This means that you can also take PowerBank with you to festivals, the beach or even to a bivouac on a desert island if you want to be sure that you have enough power for your portable devices.
