Zero idle current charger

Unlike other chargers that claim “reduced” idle current when left plugged in, the EcoCharger from Voltstar Technologies consumes zero idle current. The new device also saves energy while charging your device due to its high-efficiency Energy Star II compliant design.

 

Just press a button conveniently located at the end of the charging cable when you want to charge your portable device. The Eco Charger will charge your device and automatically disconnect the charger from the AC outlet when it senses that the phone is fully charged. A small LED status indicator turns off when charging is complete. This automatic shut-off also lengthens the life of your Li-Ion battery by limiting the topping-off charging time.

 

The EcoCharger has built-in heavy duty surge protection not found in typical chargers to protect your portable device from damaging power line surges that can cripple your portable device.

Unlike the throwaway chargers you receive with each portable device you buy, the EcoCharger has been designed to last for several generations of portable devices you may own. Most major portable devices manufacturers are moving towards standardizing on a common charging interface for future cell phones and other portable devices.
