Phorce is a Smart Bag that Charges Smartphones, Tablets and Laptops
In a world where devices such as smartphones, tablets and laptops are constantly changing and improving, one crucial item has remained fairly unchanged during the years: the traveling bag.
As a person who hates backpacks, I have always looked for a more
stylish alternative of carrying all my mobile technology in one package,
while pairing the bag with a classier wardrobe.
Not many of the options available on the market have fulfilled my needs and after approximately one year of searching, I finally found it. But shoulder-worn bags lack the room of accommodating chargers and they’re heavy weight, and I couldn’t simply commute with a laptop that runs out of battery in two hours and needs 800 grams of equipment to charge. Now, thanks to Phorce, people like me have an option.
Although full technical specifications haven’t been yet supplied for the battery, manufacturers state in their KickStarter project that the bag is sufficient to power a MacBook for up to 7 extra hours
(depending on the model) or, charge an iPhone 5 over 8 times.
References are also made to the newest iPad Mini, which can be charged
2.5 times using this bag. Pairing those numbers with the actual battery
of the device, this is more than enough for mobility addicts.
If all goes well with the fund-raiser, manufacturers have vouched to increase the battery capacity by 10% and stretch battery performances even more – at no cost for the end-user. The current battery capacity is estimated for 54 Wh and it takes the bag around four hours to fully recharge.
Besides offering a convenient way of charging devices, the Phorce traveling bag
can also communicate with your gear using the Bluetooth connection or, a
dedicated application for iOS and Android systems. Using one of these,
Phorce will advertise the battery level so the user can find out at all
times how much juice is left and one may also tweak the settings to make
the bag send notifications when the battery is low.
As a bonus, Phorce also take advantage of the latest Bluetooth technology prevents users from losing the bag. Whenever the phone is out of the range, the bag will send a critical notification, reminding the user to pick up the bag from the coffee shop or from home.
Also, the Mac optimized model has the following battery performances:
As much as functionality counts, a bag cannot be sold in any forms. Thankfully, Phorce designers
have embedded a touch of style and flexibility into their product,
making the bag look really good, no matter what the owner is wearing, or
driving. For instance, one of the tricks I lick the most is the
transforming propriety, which allows users to change the bag from a
regular briefcase to a shoulder-warn bag or even a back-pack. It all
lies in the strap system, which can be changed in a matter of seconds.
Those wishing to pack a lot of things in this bag can also make use of the 360-degree expansion zipper, which creates an additional 240 cubic inches of extra space, just like a neat trolley. And speaking of these, Phorce can also be easily attached over the telescopic handles of a trolley, making it easier to carry. When it comes to space management and organization, Phorce assures buyers that it has its own way of arranging items, so that everything looks neat and devices don’t scratch one another.
Speaking of which, this bag also comes with special surfaces that keep gadgets clean during travels and a nice set of magnetic handles with comfortable padding. At 3.7 lbs (1.7 kg), this bag is the ideal choice for a multitasker and a travel junkie. Have I told you that Phorce comes in various colors (black, red, dark green) and it is also water-proof?
