Why choose the Nano Lite? (User benefits)

• It is slim (easily pocketable), light (70g) and easy to carry (lanyard hole hole available)
• Instead of buying a brand specific spare battery (particularly for smart phones), the Nano Lite allows cross-brand recharging (i.e there’s no need to buy 1 spare battery/ brand or model) 1 battery for almost every phone
• You are able to share your your spare power with others via the multiple connectors (Nokia 1&2, Sony Ericsson 1&2, Samsung & Motorola)
• The USB output allows other brands to charge when the given adapters are not compatible
• The Nano Lite’s internal charge controller is able to handle a wide variety of charging conditions. Why risk your OWN phone battery while charging from a possible unstable source (e.g. car) when the Nano Lite can do it for you?

Why choose the Nano Lite? (Environmental Impact)

• It complies with European (RoHs) standards, in other words all soldering is lead free
• It complies with future proposed GSM Association plans to standardise chargers via USB (China is adopting this to reduce the number of disused handphone chargers) Food for thought: How many unused phone chargers do you have in your home?
• By buying only 1 unit of Nano Lite to charge your mobile device, you are effectively reducing the number of possible spare batteries you would have had to buy if you changed model or brand.
• Note that recycling of handphones are now an established business but there is still no established practical way of recycling phone chargers.
• Buying a Nano Lite is your way of helping the environment.
