Now to reveal what was the Panasonic surprise...

Hi Huneybees,

 

Remember the previous blog post where I attended a party held by Panasonic? At the end of it, there was a little bag of Panasonic surprise that I didn't reveal. Well, it's time! Have you made a guess? The tag line is #GoTheDistance and yes, it's a Panasonic Mobile Backup Charger for Smartphones.

The charger is very compact, only the size of my palm! I could charge 90% of my Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc and it's really handy especially when the smartphones these days drain out the battery so fast! Sometimes I have to be out of home for the whole day and by half of the day, my battery drains out. With this little charger, I can even go clubbing into the night at peace!

So compact right?

In the package is the Mobile Charger, a USB Cable and an AC Adapter. You can choose to charge it with the conventional electrical wall plug or simply plug it into your computer with the USB Cable to charge it.

Specifications
- Input: DC 5 V 500mA / 1 A
- Output: USB x 1 port DC 5 V Max. 1 A
- Size: approx. 39 x 70 x 22 mm (Main Unit)
- Weight: approx. 78 g (Main Unit)
- Battery Inside: Li-ion 3.7 V 2800 mAh

With the 3 colours LED light indicator, you will know when is it time to charge or when the charger is charging, etc. What I liked was the on/off button that you can press to control the battery charging. When you think it's enough, simply off it, save the energy and keep till a later time when you nee to charge you mobile phones again.

The charger can be found in most IT stores, but cuurrently, I do not have the pricing yet.

 I will update once I get it. :)

[Giveaway] SONY USB Portable Power Supply - CP-ELSB

Hi Huneybees,

Are you always in the need for some #InstantPower? Ever experienced such situations: When you are out in town and boss calls you to check up on some email and your handphone just dies on you? At your favourite idol's concert and your handycam or camera just went low batt just when they are performing your favourite song? Or at an event and you wana Blog/Tweet/Facebook on the spot, but your handphone blacked out? (Yes, all these happened to me!)

So, I always end up bringing my chargers out with me, causing my bags to be so heavy and shoulders feeling so sore at the end of the day. What's worse is instead of enjoying my hours out, I end up searching high and low for power points to plug in my chargers! How silly right?!

Well, fret not! SONY is here to save the day with their lithium-ion USB Portable Power Supply - CP-ELS. 

“The latest series of on-the-go power solutions from Sony demonstrates how we constantly aim to innovate in ways that bring real value to our customers. Smartphones, mp3 players, gaming devices, cameras and camcorders are playing increasingly important roles in our lives, connecting us with each other in ways no one could have imagined. Today it can be a huge inconvenience when these devices run out of power, but with the CP-ELSB, our customers will always have a healthy supply of power for all their portable devices.” -  Mr. Takemura Takayuki, Deputy Director, Recording Media & Energy Centre, Sony Electronics Asia Pacific.

The compact CP-ELS has a battery capacity of 2,000mAh that provides enough juice to recharge any modern smartphone on-the-go, equipping users with a source of instant power in their hands for their USB chargeable portable devices. With a high USB output of maximum 5V, 1.0A, users can be assured of quick charging of their smartphones. How convenient right?! And not only that, the portable power supply is also very compact and so easy to bring around! Even when you are clubbing, you can simply have it in your pocket!

The SONY USB portable power supply battery is available in TWO colours:

SONY CP-ELS  = White

SONY CP-ELSB = Black

The black version is brand new and will launch at the IT Show on 8th March 2012.

All chargers come with additional USB cable.

How it works? Simple as A,B,C,! Basically, the portable power supply comes with both sides. One is a USB port and the other is a Micro USB port.

Plug in the Micro USB side to the portable power supply and USB side to the comp and you are ready to charge the portable power supply to bring it out later. And if you are a SONY ERICSSON phone user like me, you can simply charge it like charging your phone!

So, once you are done charging the portable power supply, you can simply swap the end. Plug in the USB side to the portable power supply and Micro USB side to your devices. Here I'm using it for my Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc. (YES! I'm a SONY babe!)

Gren light means charging device.

See! My phone's charging up! #InstantPower!

New App - WATSinside

Hi Huneybees,

New App for party animals! Don't you always want to be in the know, get to know events happening around Singapore and gain free access to the City's nightlife and entertainment scene?

WATSinside is here to save the day! The new mobile app features a wide range of useful features that allow users to enjoy Singapore's cosmopolitan lifestyle to the fullest, receiving instant offers and promotions such as 1 for 1 deals, etc.

Basically, it is a super simple app. After downloading it from the "market", you can see the upcoming events, register to buy tickets or receive your mobile invites which you can simply flash it at the door. The fun factor is that you can even share photos, live feed updates and then link it up to you Facebook account. It works like Twitter, Foursquare and Facebook all fused into an app!

So, I was invited to their very first launch party at Hard Rock Cafe, where I got to learn and try out the app for the first time. I think it is a really good app, not only for party-goers like me, but also for businesses to spread their name out there. It's a great platform to advertise your brand and draw more crowd. :)

The guitars along the staircase, never fails to make me count them...

Waiting for the rest to arrive.

 

Getting to know the app. It works on iPhones, iPads and any Android phones. I'm using Sony Erisson's Xperia Arc to access and it works fine.

Even 987fm DJ, Desiree Lai was there to learn about the new app!

Group photos time!

Cheers to more great parties!

They are having launch parties in November at Butter Factory and Wave House. Do keep a lookout for the event in your calendar when you download the app. 

WATSinside is my event guru for now, why not give it a try?
