Lenmar Enterprises, Inc. announced the introduction of a compact line of portable Bat Paks – 2-in-1 universal battery packs that also function as a charger to recharge portable electronic devices ranging from cell phones to laptops.

The three models consist of one powered by 4 AAA batteries (included) delivering up to 14 hours of extended power for devices accepting 5V USB power such as Cell Phones, MP3s, PDAs and even PSPs. The second is an ultra slim-line rechargeable Lithium-Ion cell providing up to 20 hours of portable back-up power for handheld devices. The third is a compact external laptop Lithium-Ion battery giving an extra 2-4 hours of portability for travelers. MSRPs range from $19.99 to $149.99.

Lenmar Product Marketing Manager, Kernan McCoy stated, "Consumers have come to insist on portability. While the preference has been to smaller slim-line devices, people still want the convenience of instant, portable extended run time. This line allows users to extend run-time without being anchored to the car or wall plug. These products are ideally suited to the teen market, students and business travelers alike."
