Lithium Polymer Batteries Provide up to 25 Hours of Battery Life per Charge

Albuquerque, NM (September, 2008) – Video game accessories have just reached a new stage of technological innovation with the introduction of TeknoCreations’s InCharge remote charger for Nintendo™ Wii™. Designed to charge one or two Wii remotes, the InCharge is the first and only charging station that will power Wii remotes without having to remove Silicon skins or most other similar protective covers.

Using the power of Lithium Polymer battery packs, the InCharge for Wii provides up to 25 hours of battery life on a full charge and is 50% lighter than other charge solutions for Wii. Likewise the InCharge, which retails for $34.99, uses a contactless inductive charging solution rather than metal contacts to charge each Wii remote. With the InCharge, gamers can save money on batteries as well as eliminate complications that arise from dirty or greasy battery contacts that occur with other Wii chargers.
