We Save Battery Lives, Daily!

We fill the recharge gap by strategically placing mobile recharge units within key spaces to give consumers an opportunity to recharge their phones. Thus ensuring that consumers are never left with an empty mobile battery.

The Challenge

Cellphones are our first screen, we carry them everywhere and anywhere. When consumers are at a mall, conference or public space there is no place for them to quickly, efficiently and safely charge their mobile phone, although in a time of remote work and critical need for flexible connectivity, access to our devices is primordial.

Our Clients: Case Study

The Foschini Group

The Foschini Group was a main sponsor for a big conference in JHB over a period of 2 days. We had to supply 11 Mobile Recharge units to ensure that all 4000+ attendees have a place to charge their mobile phones.

Sexy Groovy Love

We work with the most popular festivals and event makers in CPT and JHB. Time and time again Client feedback highlighted the shift in experience, brought by not fearing to not be able to order an Uber, or reach their friends while attending the event.

Red Bull

Red Bull had their strategic planning for the year and asked us to bring in some units to ensure that the team was not running around looking for plugs, cables, etc. Therefore we placed Mobile Recharge Units in all the boardrooms to service this need.
