Powertrack is an accessory available on the market for some time that allows users to charge their mobile terminals, and more, using only water and special energy cells designed by a Swedish company. The technology made by the Swedes transforms hydrogen into electricity and everything at an acceptable price, but the interesting part is that everything works only with water. If you look at the clip above, you will notice that the charger needs water and an energy cell which combined offers approximately 1000 mAh to charge our iDevice.
PowerTrekk uses eco-friendly fuel cell technology which cleanly and efficiently converts hydrogen into electricity. The ability to simply insert a PowerPukk fuel pack and add water provides users with instant and unlimited power on the go. Unlike solar chargers, fuel cell power is generated quickly (no waiting for sun harvesting) and reliably (speed of charging not impacted by weather, solar position etc. and no power degradation like batteries). At the heart of PowerTrekk is myFC's proprietary FuelCellSticker technology. Made from foils and adhesives, these FuelCellStickers form a flexible assembly less than 2.75mm thick. Since the hydrogen fuel can be supplied from several alternative sources, the system is "flexifuel".
This type of accessories competes with the solar ones, but they have a great advantage in that they allow immediate charging of the device and work on the basis of water that we can find anywhere at any time. The charger itself costs around €200 and an energy cell only €2, but the good part is that you can charge your devices quickly and easily even when you are away from home. For now, the accessory is not available for purchase globally, but its producers claim that this will be fixed soon and the product will probably be quite popular.
