Powertraveller Mini Gorilla Portable Charger:

Got a netbook- Need a charger-

Get youself a minigorilla portable charger for netbooks!

Designed specifically to work with the latest netbooks, the minigorilla is also able to charge e-readers, camcorders, mobile phones and many more electronic products that require a 19v DC input or less.

Featuring a range of voltage settings (8.4v, 9.5v, 10.5v, 12v & 19v), the minigorilla has a 5v USB output, meaning you can also recharge your mobile, iPod, iPhone, PDA, PSP and more. Incorporating the latest HDLP (High Density Lithium Polymer) battery technology, the minigorilla will have maximum power efficiency to size and weight.

The minigorilla will give up to 5-6 hours on a Sony Vaio P-series netbook at 10.5 volt setting. minigorilla will give up to 2 hours on other netbooks set at 19 volts. However, the minigorilla may discharge its power in 30 minutes as its recharging the internal battery of the netbook. The combined recharge of the internal battery and the power used during initial connection gives up to an additional 2 hours of extra power.

The minigorilla portable charger has the same finish as our brilliant powermonkey-eXplorer charger for phones and handheld devices, with a laser-etched rubber coating, meaning its tough and durable. Supplied with a universal AC travel charger that works in over 150 countries around the world, a neoprene carry case and a whole host of monkeynuts to allow connectivity to the most popular of electronic products.

minigorilla has many safety features including short-circuit and over-charging protection. If a previously used output voltage saved in the minigorillas memory is higher than the voltage a new device to be charged requires, the minigorilla will automatically shut off. If the USB and DC output ports are empty, minigorilla will automatically shut off after 2 minutes and if devices attached via USB and DC output port are fully charged, minigorilla will also shut off. The minigorilla has a long storage life, if it hasnt been used for a year, the battery capacity lost is less than 10%.

minigorilla features an LCD screen which indicates battery capacity status and level of charge left in minigorilla, and the blue backlight will automatically turn off after 5 seconds to save power.

The minigorilla can be recharged via the included mains charger or via our fabulous solargorilla solar charger! The solargorilla will fully recharge the minigorilla within 6-9 hours and minigorilla can be recharged via its included mains adaptor in 5.5 hours.

All current stock of Powertraveller minigorilla and powergorilla is compatible with the Apple iPad.

Please be aware that the iPad will only "power" or "run" from the Powertraveller charger and the iPad screen will display a "not charging" message. If the iPad is locked and not being used, the battery charge level will actually increase by approximately 1% every 10 minutes.

The reason the products are not currently able to charge the iPad is due to the iPads requirement for a 2.1amp charge. The max output of our products is up to 1amp and this is the same for all 3rd party charging accessory manufacturers.

Powertraveller is working hard to find an alternative way for our products to charge the iPad and well keep you posted!
