Now introducing Spor: the ultimate clean energy device, designed with the consumer in mind. It has never been more simple to keep your devices charged on the go!
Spor is a self-regenerating battery charger for USB devices. It can be charged by an outlet or passively via the sun. It can charge multiple devices at once, and can charge your phone practically as fast as a wall outlet. It’s the power of the sun – in your pocket.
Spor charges mobile devices as well as other USB powered items, and passively recharges itself using solar energy. It can “Daisy Chain” with other Spors to double the charge, and stack the solar power accumulated. Additionally, Spor can be 3-D printed in any shape or color!
You Can Use Spor when you’re…
Socializing
•Talking or texting on your phone
•A late night on the town and your phone is running low
•Out with other friends who need a charge
•Showing off how cool you are around your friends for using solar power
Professionalizing
•In an exciting work meeting and you need your phone for your emails
•In a boring work meeting and can’t find anything better to do
•On the go from meeting to meeting with no place in between to charge
Vacatializing
•Camping and you don’t have any access to an outlet
•Using your tablet on the plane
Survivalizing
•After a natural disaster that’s left you and others without electricity
•After a zombie apocalypse that’s left you feeling hungry for human flesh… wait – you’re not a zombie are you?!
Living
•Riding your bike around the city or in the woods
•In class and your teacher is giving a boring lecture but your phone’s on 2%
•Living in a country with poor access to electricity and your phone is on 2%
We started out by designing the prototypes of our shells and having them printed by shapeways and i.materialise. Both were awesome! After doing initial tests on our Bukobot 3D Printer, Makerbot Replicators, and a Z-Corp powder printer, we realized these shells weren’t half bad! If you don’t care about the somewhat rough finish of today’s 3D printers, you could print your own shell in whatever color or material you can find.
We believe the future is to let you make it the way you want. That’s why we want to give you the option to view our designs or make your own on shapeways and have a beautiful and unique shell that houses great components for your Spor. Please share our campaign with friends and family to help us reach our goal. Thank you! www.kickstarter.com
