Portable powerbanks are becoming a necessary accessory for any smartphone user, especially those heavy users. AMPY is changing things up with this product category by offering a device that charges using motion. The device almost acts like a pedometer, but instead of counting steps, it generates energy to use for your portable devices.
Charge via Motion or USB
AMPY is a wearable device that captures energy from your motion, turning it into power to charge any USB-powered device. It is compatible with iPhone devices as well as Android devices, or any other device that has a USB cord. This gadget stores energy generated from your movement in the internal lithium ion battery. You can also charge the device via a micro-USB port.
In-line with Competition
The AMPY charges your devices just as fast as a standard wall outlet. The AMPY comes with an accessory kit that allows you to capture energy virtually anyway you’d like.
AMPY also a Fitness Tracker
There will also be a smartphone app for the device for users to track how much power they’ve generated, the number of calories burned and the carbon footprint offset from charging with the device.
Kickstarter
AMPY is currently on Kickstarter, although it has almost tripled its initial goal of $100,000. Pre-order yours today.
