TruePower incorporates two Universal Serial Bus (USB) charge ports into a standard three prong power outlet. USB powered devices including mobile, iPod, iPhone, PDA, MP3, PSP, MP4 player or digital cameras can be plugged into the wall plate for a recharge without a separate USB charger.
The $10 wall-plug is power-conscientious and won't suck power when not in use. Pre-orders are being accepted. Shipping will begin once the final UL approval is received.
Implications - If this idea confuses you, there will be a step by step installation video to help you through the process. The innovative wall plugs will ensure you never run out of batteries and save money and energy without all of the hassle of reinstalling a new wall outlet.
