Review: YoGen analogue device charger

Keeping a mobile device charged up is essential to its well being. But it is almost inevitable that there will be occasions when the battery gives up for the day. So, what happens if there is no power point in sight? Well, for those with the nifty YoGen charger in their pocket life is good.

The YoGen charger is a slim pocket-sized hand powered electric charger that is compatible with iPhones, iPods, PDAs, smartphones, mobile phones, portable gaming systems, digital cameras and satnav units.

The unit is available in two guises, there is a clear model and a black model, both with a choice of connectors. Apple owners can get the Apple and miniUSB connectors while other users can get connectors for LG, Nokia, Sony Ericsson and micro-USB.

Getting connected to the mobile device of choice is simple and straightforward. Plug the supplied cable into the miniUSB on the YoGen, add the desired connector and you are ready to go. The charger has a T-handle that is integrated into the unit which is attached to an internal alternator that generates a charge when pulled.

You will need some serious pulling power to charge up a device. However, it is worth remembering the YoGen is not a replacement for your standard charger. It’s a charger that creates enough charge to keep a device in action until it can be fully charged. And there is no doubt that the YoGen is perfect for the job.
