【Heavy Snow Forecast】Prepare for potential power outages! A multifunctional power battery developed by disaster prevention experts

This week, heavy snow at warning levels is expected to continue. As we prepare for possible power outages, I found something intriguing while researching disaster goods. A convenient ear speaker for everyday use can also serve as a power battery in emergencies!?

The usual light is useful in emergencies!

"UP SOUND" is a Bluetooth-connected speaker for your ears. It can receive sound from a distance of about 60 meters, allowing you to listen to the TV while cooking in the kitchen or enjoy music while doing housework, without disrupting your daily flow. It's also great for late-night TV viewing, letting you enjoy sound with just your immediate surroundings without worrying about others. It features 3W double speakers, achieving powerful sound despite its compact size.

While it can be used as an everyday item, it truly shines during emergencies. When a power outage stops the electricity supply from the outlet, it automatically switches to the built-in battery and the light turns on. The brightness can be adjusted in three levels and the angle can also be altered, ensuring you have adequate illumination during nighttime power outages. It can stay lit for up to about 90 hours, making it a reassuring presence during extended power outages.

In emergencies, it also functions as a power battery. It can charge a smartphone about 8 times and allows for simultaneous charging of up to 6 devices. The battery installed is a lithium iron phosphate battery, which is less prone to overheating. It is a highly safe battery used in electric vehicles, characterized by low fire risk and long lifespan.

It is resistant to degradation even when left plugged in, with no need for regular charging checks. Even if you don’t plan to use it, it can be kept in a state ready for use at any time.

The main unit weighs about 1.4 kg and is lightweight, making it easy to carry with one hand. It features a large display that is easy to see from a distance and can also be used as a kitchen timer.

In everyday use, it can be naturally used as a speaker or timer, and in emergencies, it functions as lighting and a power source—an item that can be used without being conscious of the "phases" of normal times and disaster times.
