| iGo Will Showcase Eco-Friendly Products Using iGo Green Technology at
CES | | iGo Chargers and Power Management Products Featuring Green Technology Use Up to 85 Percent Less Standby Power than Standard Power ProductsDownloadable Press Kit At: www.virtualpressoffice.com/public/kit/iGoCES2010SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Dec 22, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- iGo, Inc. (Nasdaq: IGOI), a leading provider of portable power and green
power management solutions, and creator of the patented iGo(R) tip
technology, will showcase its innovative power management products and
universal chargers for laptop computers and mobile devices (e.g., mobile
phones, Bluetooth(R) headsets, smartphones/PDAs, GPS devices,
MP3 players, digital cameras, etc.) at the 2010 International CES. The
company will exhibit eco-friendly power products featuring iGo's
proprietary and patent-pending iGo Green(TM) Technology, which
use up to 85 percent less standby power than standard chargers and power
strips.
"Now is the time for eco-friendly products that allow consumers to
control their energy consumption," said Wally Thornton, V.P. of Product
Management and Supply Chain for iGo. "iGo's chargers and power products
have the ability to power the hottest new electronic devices at CES
using less standby power and fewer chargers, saving consumers both
energy and money while reducing landfill e-waste."
The smart, eco-friendly iGo Green Technology products automatically
detect when a device is not in use and shut off power drawn from the
wall, eliminating wasted energy that is drawn by from devices and
chargers. When the iGo Green power managers detect that the attached
device or charger needs power again, they turn back on. And for devices
that need continuous power, such as clocks or digital video recorders,
iGo's power management products also feature "always on" outlets, so the
iGo Green charger or surge protector powers devices the specific way
each consumer wants them too.
iGo products that will be featured at CES include:
- Power Smart Tower with iGo Green Technology: This tower-style
surge protector features four outlets with iGo Green Technology that
reduce energy consumption, four "always on" outlets for devices
requiring continuous power and two USB ports to conveniently charge
mobile devices.
- Power Smart Wall with iGo Green Technology: A wall-mounted
surge protector that has two outlets with iGo Green Technology and two
"always on" outlets for devices requiring continuous power.
- Laptop Anywhere Charger with iGo Green Technology: This power
saving charger powers laptops and mobile devices at the same time from
the wall, car or airplane.
- Charge Anywhere: A travel-friendly wall charger - compatible
with almost every mobile and gaming electronic device on the market -
that has an internal battery, allowing devices to be charged in any
location, with or without an outlet. Using this one iGo charger with
iGo power tips or USB charging cables instead of multiple chargers,
saves money and produces less waste.
