Spor is a tiny external battery for iPhone, Android smartphones and other devices and it’s currently raising money on Kickstarter by offering some very interesting features that could help users make sure they never have to worry about their smartphones running out of battery power.
Not only does Spor pack a 5200mAh battery, but it also features a solar panel, which means that unlike similar products for mobile devices this battery pack will continuously recharge while exposed to the sun or to an artificial light source with enough intensity.
Furthermore, the Spor offers one-month stand-by time, and can charge two devices at once. Users can also daisy chain multiple Spors, and can recharge the battery pack from a regular power source.
When it comes to customization options, users will be able to 3D print Spor covers in “almost any color, shape or material.”
Finally, the Spor will also come with a special USB cable that will let users place the batteries securely on various surfaces or attach them to objects, such as bikes.
Spor has already raised over $15,000 in a day, and needs $100,000 to be fully funded. Pledges range from $1 to $10,000, with the cheapest Spor costing $40. The device will ship in December, assuming the project is successful.
