Japanese tech giant Toshiba plans to sell a portable fuel-cell that can recharge mobile phones and other digital gadgets on the move, starting next week.
The company said palm-sized fuel-cell, called Dynario, generates electricity through a chemical reaction -- injecting methanol with oxygen -- to recharge mobile devices in a few seconds through a USB cable.Consumers buy refill cartridge, each generating enough power to charge two handsets. The company has been researching fuel-cell technology since the 1990s but postponed commercialization until now. Toshiba said the Dynario fuel-cell will sell through its direct-order Web site at a price of $325, with each set of five fuel cartridges costing $35.
