hi this is Peter Bowen for the virgin we are looking at the power track this is a fuel cell charger it's actually pretty cool so there's two parts to this the first is a very standard part it's a 2000 milliamp battery the same sort of external battery that you seen before it's got a micro USB plug listen I've got a standard USB female port on this end you can use to charge your iPhone or what other phone you've got is pretty straightforward but this is the interesting side so it has these pucks which I've got some chemicals in them and then this little plastic doing a key and what you do is you put some little just a little bit of water in there about a tablespoon or so you seal that up and then you take the puck and you set it into that container there a little bit of water will shoot into it and that will activate the chemicals inside and it will start providing power and company says it provides about 5 watt hours of power which you can use to either charge your phone directly or it will also charge up this two thousand milliamp battery at the same time or on its own they say it'll charge this battery up at about two and a half hours that basically the fuel cell provides the equivalent of about four double A batteries should be available in the u.s. in May or so they say that perhaps REI might be a spot where you can go find these that is the power trip full fuel cell charger
