Charge on the Way to Where You’re Going with the Powerbag

Portable chargers are all over the place, but not one like this. The Powerbag is a charger for all of your devices, but it’s much more than that. The charger itself is inside of a high quality bag like a backpack, messenger bag or even a briefcase. This would be great for students to carry their books and then have a charger handy with them.

On your phone all day with no access to an outlet? Not enough juice to watch the movie you downloaded to your tablet? Is your playlist longer than your charge?

 

No more excuses! RFA Brands today announced the launch of Powerbag™, a new collection of stylish backpacks, cross-body messenger bags, tablet bags, slings and wheeled travel bags with a built-in charging system that charges your favorite devices on the go.  Designed in a fashion partnership with travel and lifestyle brand, ful, Powerbag is the ultimate charging system disguised as the coolest bag you’ll ever use. Seamlessly integrated into every Powerbag is the exclusive Powerbag Charging System, which charges all of your favorite mobile devices, including Smartphones, iPods/MP3 players, Tablets, eReaders, Bluetooth headsets and more, right in the bag.

 

As part of the launch campaign, the Powerbag “Stay Charged” Tour will embark October 1 on the ultimate road trip: a multi-city, nationwide tour that will give students on college campuses and other retail shoppers a chance to experience Powerbag for themselves.  The Powerbag Stay Charged Tour kicks off on October 1 in Boston, Massachusetts at CollegeFest, the most heavily attended back-to-school event in New England.  The tour will hit many college campuses, including University of Michigan, New York University, The Ohio State University, University of Wisconsin, UCLA, University of Illinois, George Washington University, and more.

“Powerbag brings together function and convenience with style, and we can’t wait to show students and other consumers just how easy it is to stay charged throughout the day,” said Ron Ferber, president of RFA Brands, creators of Powerbag.  “Everyone needs power these days, and the Powerbag has taken bags to the next level.  With Powerbag, a charge is as close as the bag on your shoulder which, by the way, also does a very nice job of carrying books, notebooks, make-up, bottled water and other daily essentials.”

 

The Powerbag “Stay Charged” Tour will power its way across America in a 37 foot interactive lounge and showroom that features a host of engaging activities including video game stations, a chance to win cool prizes playing classic games such as Plinko and Cornhole, and tons of free giveaways.  All visitors will have a chance to try Powerbag for themselves.

 

A contest featured on the official Powerbag Facebook page will give college students and other consumers a chance to be a DJ at local events held throughout the Powerbag “Stay Charged” Tour.  To be considered, visit the official Powerbag Facebook page and click on the Contest tab to submit a DJ demo that showcases your skills in action.

 

“Students are on the leading edge of a growing need in our society to constantly be plugged in – whether they’re on Facebook, texting, downloading and watching movies, or listening to music.  And you can’t stay connected without power,” said Lynda Rose, chief marketing officer for RFA Brands. “The Powerbag ‘Stay Charged’ Tour will let people experience how Powerbag can make their lives so much easier by being able to charge up their digital devices right in their bag.”

How Powerbag Works:

  • Powerbag comes charged and ready to go!
  • Connect up to four (4) mobile devices at a time using the included pre-routed connectors (1 micro, 1 mini, 1 Apple) and one USB port inside every Powerbag; keep devices connected or plug-in when you need more power.
  • The exclusive Powerbag Charging System will automatically detect the connected devices in the bag and send the right amount of power to optimally charge each one.
  • To recharge Powerbag, plug into any standard wall outlet with the included AC Adapter.  Powerbag comes with a built-in, lightweight, rechargeable and removable battery to get you through your day (available with a 3000 mAh or 6000 mAh battery based on model).
  • When plugged in, Powerbag will charge all connected devices first and then charge its own battery
