AMES, Iowa, July 31, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- PowerFilm,
Inc., a manufacturer of high-quality, thin-film solar products
located in the United States,
announces the unveiling of their new LightSaver product line at the
summer 2015 Outdoor Retail Market scheduled to take place from
August 5th through the
8th in Salt Lake City,
Utah. A team of PowerFilm employees, including the founder
and CEO, Frank Jeffrey, will be on
hand and ready to answer questions about the new product line which
includes the LightSaver, LightSaver Pocket and LightSaver Maxx.
Individuals interested in the products will find them available for
viewing at PowerFilm's booth BR727, located in the ball room of the
Salt Palace. In addition, PowerFilm will be providing a sneak
preview of its new, innovative products during a pre-show media
event sponsored by the Outdoor Retailer Market.
PowerFilm's LightSaver products are durable, compact and
lightweight and are part of a solar charging system. The smallest
product in the line is the LightSaver Pocket which weighs a mere
3.5 ounces with a 2.8 Ah USB charger and is perfect for charging
cell phones, tablets, MP3 players, camera batteries, GoProsĀ®, GPS
systems, etc. It features 1 USB Output and a multi-color
(red/Green) LED that indicates percent of charge. The LightSaver
weighs slightly more than the Pocket version at 4.7 ounces but
packs more power at 3.2 Ah and twice the solar. Like the LightSaver
Pocket, the standard LightSaver has 1 USB output and a multi-color
LED that indicates percent of battery charge. It is perfect for
charging the same items the Pocket will, but provides more bang for
the buck from the solar panel. Loaded with 16Ah of power, the
LightSaver Maxx comes in at a mere 1 lb in weight. The Maxx takes
the basic functionality of the LightSaver but increases the battery
capacity and adds a high power output for higher draw electronics
such as laptops.
CEO and Founder, Frank Jeffrey,
shares his excitement over the new LightSaver line saying,
"PowerFilm is pleased to produce this new line of innovative
products. These products will meet the increased needs of consumers
for remote power by providing new dimensions in usability--reducing
weight and packing volume by a factor of 4 compared to current
available systems."
