Friday, September 7th, 2012

OTE informed us that they have teamed with Granite Gear here in the USA to design and develop solar and portable power carrying cases and deployment solutions to accommodate Powertraveller products for the outdoor and tactical markets.

Powertraveller CEO and former Royal Marine Commando Jerry Ranger could not be more pleased to work with Granite Gear and OTE to develop and design the next generation of both civilian and tactical cases. “This partnership will only provide more options for the soldier or adventurer who need power solutions on the battlefield or on the mountains and peaks of the world.” He went on to mention, “Since the CEO of OTE comes from the Naval Special Warfare community, it is a pleasure to work together with a team of folks who understand what soldiers and adventurers need to complete their mission safely.”

Powertraveller products are available in 41 countries around the world as well as through numerous retailers here in the USA to include REI, Eastern Mountains Sports, and Cabelas. For you military folks, feel free to stop by Extreme Outfitters at Camp Lejeune or FT Benning and of course GSS Supply in Virginia Beach to see the entire offering of products. I know both Rob and Steve’s staff will gladly assist you! Powertraveller, OTE and Granite Gear told us that they would like to thank the hundreds of military folks worldwide who have helped in the development of these products and carrying solutions.

Powertraveller Portable Chargers

Friday, November 5th, 2010

Powertraveller is a European company that produces a full line of charging devices. While they aren’t a “tactical” company, you are going to find products that are perfect for use in the field whether on duty or just having fun. Each one of their chargers is intended for a slightly different application but can be used in conjunction with other powertraveller devices to increase versatility.

The powermonkey-eXplorer can power most cell phones (96 hours), iPods (40 hours) and other mp3/mp4 players (6 hours), PDAs (48 hours), as well as portable game devices (5 hours). Versatility is it’s middle name and can be recharged via its integral solar panel, AC, or USB. Additionally, it comes with multiple tips called monkey nuts to accommodate various devices as well as adapters for use in 150 countries.

The MiniGorilla is designed to be used with the latest netbooks, but can also charge an iPad when used with the gorilla-pad connector. It also has use with camcorders, e-readers, and even many cell phones. It can be charged via AC or with the separate solargorilla charger. Think of the solargorilla as a big brother to the powermonkey.

The powergorilla can charge any device up to 24 volts, but the real draw is the extra 2-5 hours of power that it can add to your laptop or Macbook as well as its ability to charge multiple devices. It can be charged via AC or with the separate solargorilla charger, and like the minigorilla requires the gorilla-pad connector to charge an iPad.

You can pick up the powertraveller products at Extreme Outfitters.
