This Wrist Band Portable Battery (that seems to be the name of the product as well as its description) lets you charge a number of different phones, games and other gadgets from the comfort of your own sleeve.

For the dedicated road warrior, few things are more annoying that running out of power. There are only so may adapters you can cart around with you, and you always seem to get down to the last pip on your mobile when you have some length-yet-urgent calls to make.

With this Wrist Band Portable Battery unit, you can put charging problems behind you – in favour of fashion problems.

Designed to look like a (very) chunky watch strap or leather-effect band, the WBPB packs a li-ion battery with enough charge for 3 hours talk time on the average mobile phone. It helps if you don’t mind looking like you just stepped out of the Duran Duran Wild Boys video.

The strap comes with an extendible power cord and a selection of adapters for different phones, MP3 players and similar devices. Identity-concealing paper bag – model’s own.

Available now | £16.86 | Chinavision (via Random Good Stuff)
