Mini Power Battery Concept Is An Interesting Idea

Imagine if you ran out of juice on your phone in the middle of the day, but instead of running around trying to look for a charger, how about you break off a rechargeable battery pack like you would from a bar of chocolate, stick it onto your phone, and you’re good to go? If that sounds like an intriguing idea, then design Tsung Chih-Hsien’s Mini Power battery concept could be of interest to you.

As you can see in the image above, the Mini Power battery concept works like this – you break off the battery that you need which is measured in hours, as you can see in the image above, attach it to your phone, and it should provide enough juice to last for a particular amount of time. When you’re done, you can take it back to the shop you bought it from and recycle it, where presumably they will recharge it full and resell it to customers.

The less amount of time you need, the smaller the break off piece would be, so if you just need some juice for a quick phone call and fire off some emails, then you’d break off the 2-hour piece, and if you wanted more time, you’d go for the 6-hour piece, and so on. Unfortunately as it stands, the Mini Power battery is a concept at the moment.

It has won a Red Dot design award but there is no telling if and when such a design would ever be made a reality, but what do you guys think? Is this a good idea, or would you rather just stick to your battery cases and power banks?
