Duracell Powermat Charger and Backup Battery

The Duracell Powermat has been around for a little while, but this year at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas they revealed their latest innovations to the product.  The Powermat, combined with a special case for your smartphone makes for very easy charging – simply lay your handset down on the mat and walk away.

They also showed off a backup battery which also charges on the Powermat and then can be carried with you so that you always have a source for emergency charging.  The new backup battery not only charges on the mat, but can also be charged via USB so you can use a variety of chargers, from computer to wall wart to a car charger.  You can check all of it out in the video below and also visit them on the web.
