iGo's Charger Claims Green Space With Moto W233 Renew

iGo has announced that its mobile phone charger product line is now compatible with the world’s first ever carbon free mobile handset, the Motorola (News - Alert) MOTO W233 Renew, and continues to save the environment.

Another viable claim that illustrates how its products help save the earth is to use a single wall adaptor for a range of appliances instead of a dedicated charger per device. The report indicates that discarded electronic gadgets account for more than two thirds of metallic content that are hard to dispose.

"With electronic devices and chargers comprising 70% of the heavy metals in landfills, using an iGo charger with interchangeable tips, instead of a different charger for each device, eliminates the need for multiple chargers," said Brandy Lawson, Product Marketing Manager, iGo. "The average household has seven chargers and at iGo we are committed to reducing the waste that goes into landfills.

Its universal wall chargers, also called power adaptors, when combined with a series of changeable inter-connecting tips can be used to supply and refurbish energy for a significant range of mobile handsets, movable computing devices such as laptops and notebooks, Bluetooth devices, MP3 and satellite radio players, games and GPS map tracking consoles, digital cameras, musical keyboards, answering machines and DVD players. 

“After all, one iGo charger can power all your present and future devices, meaning no more high-waste chargers cluttering your house or going in the trash," said Lawson.

Having a single multipurpose charger in these harsh cash crunch times does make sense.

Another method, TMCnet suggests, to save the environment could be to recycle unused power charges and other electronic gadgetry by initiating or joining e-saving schemes such as the Verizon (News - Alert) Wireless HopeLine , as reported earlier by TMC (News - Alert), that collects old mobiles, batteries and accessories including chargers and redistributes them to the public according to their condition. The report noted that this drive had saved 200 tons of electronic related waste from cluttering landfills.
