Limeaide Blast Battery Provides Juice When You Need It

KickStarter Friday - Limeaide Blast Battery With Faster Charge


Limeaide BatteryWe have all been there. We get the low battery indicator (or the dreaded beep) telling us we need to charge up our smartphone or risk having it shut down because the battery has drained. Until batteries improve significantly, that is a fact of life that we have to live with. And that is why you see a lot battery chargers which are portable and provide a solution for when there is no place to charge up your phone or other mobile device. A coming one to market is the Limeaide Blast.

The Limeaide Blast is a KickStarter project which closed yesterday and with some impressive numbers. With a project goal of $30,000, they raised 940% of the goal or $284,290. This shows just how important it is to have a portable charge when you are on the go and people continue to want to see improvements. The Limeaide Blast contains high capacity batteries which they are calling as ultra high capacity batteries. They are Lithium-ion and will be available in 3 sizes. The L130x (13000 mAh), L156X (15600 mAh) and the L180X (18000 mAh).

With these ultra high capacity batteries, you might think they are going to be difficult to carry around. But they only measure out at 4.8 (4.5 L130X) by 3.1 by 0.9 inches and weigh in at 11.4 oz, 12.8 oz, and 13 oz. That is a lot of power packed into a small space for those times when you need it. The Limeaide Blast may be the one you need. With these, the charging of your mobile device may be just as fast as if you were charging it up at home. So, what makes this one different from all the others on the market.

Current portable batteries like this are charged up at 1 amp which for me seems to take forever to charge up. But, the Limeaide Blast is charged at 2 amp giving you the potential to cut the battery charge time in half. This makes this a far better product with this feature alone. On the output side, or charging your mobile devices, they have included 2 USB connections. One outputs at 1 amp and the other at 2.1 amps which is going to make a difference when charging up your tablet.

The Limeaide Blast web site is up and running, but there is no longer a place to order your Limeaide Blast since the Kickstarter project ended. Deliveries for those who made pledges is set for June and since they are reporting the first shipments from manufacturing have arrived, they are going to meet that pledge. Check back on their site for when you can order your own Limeaide Blast.
