Ekotribe today announced the launch of the USBCELL as part of its ‘Go Green’ campaign in the Middle East.

With over 15 billion batteries needlessly thrown away each year and with the increasing demand for portable power by modern electronic devices - the battery has simply not caught up with the needs of modern life. Traditional rechargeable batteries have never been truly portable as they are dependent on chargers or adapators, and so most consumers prefer single use alkaline cells.

USBCELL changes this balance by enabling consumers to ‘Recharge Anywhere’, without needing or carrying an external charger. With over 2 billion USB ports on modern computers and devices, USBCELL can be charged easily at work, on the go, or at home.

Each USBCELL, can save over 7kg of C02, and 3kg of toxic waste compared to alkaline battery use and is an example of how sustainable design can help provide better consumer solutions today.

According to Sharad Agarwal, CEO of Ekotribe, “This NiMH AA cell can be used in normal battery applications and can be recharged simply by plugging into a USB port with the built in USB interface. The USBCELL is the ultimate eco-friendly product designed to reduce the overall carbon footprint. USBCELLs can be charged hundreds of times saving the consumer money and helping reduce environmental waste.”

All USBCELLs have the following features:

• Charge anywhere from any accessible powered USB Port - 90% recharged in 5 hours
