The XP1 USB power cable is all you need to power and sync the iPhone and iPod. And with the XP1 you don’t need to carry additional adaptors and cables. Just use the USB port on your computer to charge the XP1 cable and carry the XP1 with you to power your iPhone or iPod on the go.

You can also use the wall adaptor to charge XP-1. The XP1 USB charge and sync cable has a 2500mAh lithium-ion battery. It’s a convenient solution that will always give you power when you need it.

This DIY gadget is dubbed the “smart charger” and it’s from two Kenyan students who reside in rural areas without electricity. They also use bikes to get around. Jeremiah Murimi and Pascal Katana use a dynamo attached to the bicycle in order to charge cellphone batteries. The whole process costs practically nothing.

They used parts from old discarded radio and television sets to assemble the small charger. The user is able to plug the dynamo lead right into the device. An hour of pedaling can fully recharge the battery in about the same time it would take if it was plugged into an electrical outlet. The idea is that the user would avoid paying $2 each time for battery recharges by making a one-time smart charger purchase worth about $4.50.

If you have an iPhone, an iPod Touch, a Sony Walkman, and a Nokia smartphone, then the Messless Charger will charge them all at once. It was designed by Italdesign Giugiaro and the charger lets you charge up to four devices at once, which means no wires for each gadget.

Pretty handy charger to have. It comes with a variety of adapters including iPod/iPhone, Nokia handset ports, Sony Ericsson and mini USB. The Messless Charger is available in the UK for about $113.

I can’t decide if this is pointless or actually useful, but if you are looking for a way to organize your gadgets while they charge, you may want to check out the Power Shelf. It plugs directly into your power outlet, you can then plug your gadget into the power outlet and store it on the shelf.

The Power Shelf comes in several sizes so you can store and charge a wide variety of gadgets from your iPhone to your digital camera to your laptop. I guess it’s a great idea for those with limited space. The Power Shelf will cost you $14.99 to $49.99 from Think Geek.

Electric vehicles aren’t exactly everywhere, but that’s not stopping Elektromotive from positioning themselves for future profits. The firm has just unveiled the first-ever billable charge station for EVs. It’s a three phase chargepoint that can supply up to 32 amps at 240V.

The station is called the Elektrobay and is equipped with a 2-way GSM service called EBConnect, which lets users with specialized key fobs and the like just wave their key, get a charge and be invoiced later. The new billing system will be installed in all 160 Elektrobay units in the UK.

Kensington has a new Power Adapter designed specially for Netbooks. The adapter is compatible with brands like Acer, Asus, Dell, HP, LG, Lenovo, MSI and Samsung netbooks, so all of the big names are covered.

But the most interesting thing about it is that it also features a USB port for powering up your cell phone or MP3 player. Don’t worry, the adapter features over-current protection, short-circuit protection, and over-temperature protection. Pretty nifty gadget to have with you while traveling.

Can’t seem to get enough sun for your gadgets? If only that great big fiery ball in the sky would stay still. It would make it so much easier for you to harness those rays. That ain’t gonna happen, but here’s the next best thing.

The Solar ChumAlong solar tracking system is a solar charging panel that automatically tracks the sun just like those expensive arrays you see in movies. But this one is portable and lightweight, so you can always have power. The solar panel is always facing the sun so you’ll always be able to juice up your gadgets.

The idea behind this human powered laptop recharger is that you could get juice in the outdoors or in areas where you have no AC plugs. It’s called the YoGen MaxT and it can produce 50-60 watts, which is enough to power a notebook.

Those who are on the wimpy side are covered as the device has internal AA batteries that keep the power flowing while you rest your leg. It’s great for say, camping and hiking, when you take your notebook with you. The whole thing folds up for portability, making it convenient.

A common complaint about the iPhone and the iPhone 3g is that it runs out of juice more often than we’d like. PhoneSuit may just have the solution with it’s new Mili Power Pack. It slides onto your iPhone/iPhone 3G from the bottom, covering most of the back of the device while leaving both the top and the front exposed.

The Mili features an 1800 mAh battery and a mini-USB port for recharging, while a full-size USB port can be used for charging other accessories. According to PhoneSuit, the Mili Power Pack will give you up to 350 hours of standby time, 6 hours of talk time or Internet use over 3G, 12 hours of talk time on EDGE, and 7 hours of Internet use over Wi-Fi. Also 28 hours of audio playback or 8 hours of video playback.

The G1′s battery life isn’t as great as we would like, which is an issue with smartphones in general. That’s why this $17 device is a great idea. It will come in very handy for keeping your Android G1 powered at all times.

It’s a cheap way to make sure you always have some precious juice.

Chances are you have quite a few spent AA batteries lying around. Probably because you played with your WowWee robots too much. Well, here’s an interesting concept for quick and easy re-charging of all your AA batteries.

The Febot is a design by Ji-yun Kim, Soon-young Yang and Hwan-ju Jeon out of Korea. It would be suction mounted to your window so it can catch the breeze and recharge your single AA inside. A pretty interesting solution. I have a feeling it may take a while though, unless you are in a hurricane.

Sony’s PS3 SIXAXIS and Dual Shock 3 controllers being wireless, are going to need a charge after awhile. That’s why Sony has their own AC adapter for both controllers, for almost $30, available starting December 18th. With the AC adapter, you’ll get a few USB ports, allowing you to charge up to two controllers at the same time. We don’t know if this is going to show up outside of Japan or not, but we hope so. It’s better then leaving your PS3 powered up all night.

Imagine never having to charge your phone from an outlet ever again. It sounds too good to be true, but it may happen sooner then you think. No one likes to recharge their phone every day. And after you charge it, the battery slowly loses power as you go about your day.

Thanks to motion-powered electronics, which is in development by M2E Power, you may be able to charge your phone just by walking or having it on you. M2E is claiming that their system will generate 300 to 700 percent more power than currently available kinetic energy technologies. So one day soon charging your phone by plugging it in may be a thing of the past.

We’ve seen our share of solar powered devices, but nothing so hideous and blatantly dorky as the solar powered necktie. It will not only collect solar power, but it also singles you out as a geek. You can thank a group of braniacs at Iowa State University for creating it. It’s made from newly developed solar fabrics. The solar panels are tiny and laid out in a grid that at least makes it look somewhat like any other tacky tie.

It even sports a pocket sewn into the back so your device can suck precious juice like a parasite that no one can see. This technology can only end with a living symbiote tie that strangles you dead, thereby making it look like you’ve committed suicide. Then they’ll take over the world. No one will know. It will just seem like unusually high suicides. Let’s just stop wearing them now, can we? They’re silly.

The Take Anywhere Electrical Power Source does away with the need for a travel adapter. It features a rechargeable 10-amp battery with more than enough juice to power a laptop not for one hour, not for two, but for three hours. It will power a cell phone for 15 hours of talk time, and even an iPod nano several times supposedly.

As for size, it’s smaller than most briefcases and sports a few AC outlets, a DC outlet, USB port, and is even outfitted with an LED for a flashlight. The internal battery can hold a charge for up to three months so you don’t have to babysit this thing to make sure you’ll have juice. The device will retail for $199.95 and would be pretty handy for those who travel a lot.
