BoostTurbine2000 from Etón is a durable back-up battery with a hand turbine power generator. It enables you to charge your mobile device even when the power is out. In one minute the hand turbine power generator can produce enough power for a 30-second call or a few critical texts. When fully charged, BoostTurbine2000 fully charges most smartphones. Smart.

Power down, no transport, shops empty, phone lines down, radioactive plume, constant earthquakes. The only thing that worked was the cellular network.
Don’t mock until your world turns upside down, and you have to fend for yourself.
