Working based on the kinetic energy, the new external charger released by M2E Power is designed to provide power to your cell phone, digital camera or portable media player, by converting the motion produced when you are walking into electric energy.
M2E Power designs renewable energy and uses a patent-pending technology to power mobile gadgets while carried with you on the go.

According to the company’s tests, if you walk or drive for 6 cumulated hours you’ll power your cell phone with about 30-60 minutes of talk time.
This smart technology takes advantage of a fundamental change in magnetic architecture within electronic devices, which permits more electricity to be generated from micro-motion. It is a combination of energy generation architecture integrated and energy storage (battery) components.
Compared to other systems using kinetic energy, the one developed by M2E Power provides with 300%-700% more power.
Of course, the main market sector that will benefit from this innovative idea will be the military, while additional uses would be for Personal Data Assistants, portable DVD players, cordless phones, 2-way radios, portable game players, dog collars, flashlights, hearing aids, iPod accessories, rechargeable batteries, watch Batteries and animal tracking.
Another aspect is that this type of self-powered energy is environmental-friendly as it uses much fewer toxic substances, reducing toxic waste in landfills.
“Our technology boosts the efficiency of magnetic induction, leading to a series of key innovations that produce a dramatic increase in power generation within a small footprint,†said David Rowe, President of M2E Power. “This significant leap in energy production allows us to comfortably serve a large, meaningful variety of electronics and accessories with an eco-friendly alternative. This includes offering our first commercial application – the world’s only external charger that generates its own electricity by converting the energy of normal everyday motion.â€
