Never Let a Dead Phone Stop Your Adventures
Picture this: you’re strolling through the streets of London, snapping pics, chasing the buzz of the city, and—boom!—your phone’s battery icon turns orange. Classic. The solution? ChargedUp has just rolled out a brand‑new way to keep your phone powered up—think bike‑sharing for batteries.
What’s ChargedUp All About?
- Battery on Rent – Rent a portable charger for a penny‑plus fee, wield it as long as you like, and hand it back where you’re headed.
- Zero Hassle – No waiting room for a charge‑up; touch the QR code, grab the battery, power on.
- Double‑Charge Power – Every battery can juice a phone twice, so you’re never forced to walk around with a dead phone.
- All‑Device Ready – Comes with cables for both iPhone & Android, ready for whatever you bring.
How It Works
Open the ChargedUp app, find a station nearby, scan its QR code and boom—battery in the slot. “Grab, charge, and go!” Then, when you’re done, drop it off at any other station. (No more frantic searches for a power outlet.)
Green Energy, Big Brains
All batteries are humming on 100% green power thanks to a partnership with Ecotricity. Every surplus charge keeps the planet happy and the lithium cycle efficient—think of it as powering your phone while also powering the planet’s future.
CEO’s Take
Hugo Tilmouth says, “Battery life just can’t keep up with our smartphone demands, and nobody likes a halfway‑day low battery blues. We’re at it, making it cost‑effective (you’ll pay as low as 50p) and eco‑friendly.” He added that the sharing economy can cut down on lithium waste.
Get a Grip on Your Phone, Not on a Wall
Launching this month in almost 30 London spots and aiming for over 1,000 by the end of 2018, ChargedUp will be found in bars, cafés, restaurants, and shared offices. Just pick up at one corner, drop off at the next—no more waiting for your battery to recharge.
