Intergalactic Phone Chargers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This R2 Astro Droids Charger Will Zap Your Phone Back to Life

— April 15, 2014 — Tech
You can now be one step closer to being a star fighter with your little R2 astro droids charger! Although R2-D9 (lovingly called Deenine) and R2-D2 (Artoo) won't be repairing your starship or substituting as a nav computer, they will efficiently revive something of far greater importance: your dead cellphone.

Just like the real R2 astro droids, these little guys can't stand seeing your device run out of power. With their help, you can get 2.1 Amps through each of their USB charging ports, which can easily charge two devices at the same time. This official Star Wars merchandise is an essential addition to any die-hard fan's collection. Once you've plugged in your device, both Artoo and Deenine whistle and beep with joy, while their domes rotate and light up. An exclusive ThinkGeek creation, the little pseudo-droids are bound to prove themselves useful.
