POWER EFFICIENCY

Need to run more than one lab per classroom/school without the lights going out?
No problem, with EarthWalk's integrated laptop and battery charging systems you can power as many mobile computer labs as you need. EarthWalk Wireless Mobile Computer Labs are the most efficient solutions available; this means you can use a standard AC outlet and be assured that you will NOT BLOW A FUSE! EarthWalk has developed, engineered, and patented its PowerSmart electrical and battery power technologies to allow EarthWalk products to operate and perform unlike any other solution available. EarthWalk PowerSmart products provide “Single Plug” electrical operation, simultaneous battery charging,
85% energy efficiency, and virtually continuous “ALL DAY” operation.

POWER-PULSE/POWER MANAGEMENT ARCHITECTURE:
One Plug Power Management

EarthWalk's proprietary recharging technology allows all the laptops in your
mobile computer lab to be simultaneously charged from a single electrical outlet.
Without this exclusive Power-Pulse/Power Management Architecture, charging
beyond 16 laptops from a single 16AMP outlet is not recommended - and in
most cases, not possible. Considering most laptops draw at least 2-3 AMPs
during the charging process, overloading can occur very easily. Not only can
this prove costly, it may also pose a safety hazard in your school's electrical
system by overloading circuits and potentially causing older wiring to fail.

This charging system is designed to ensure that the proper amount of power
is equally distributed to each laptop without overlaoding the circuit or overcharing
the laptops. EarthWalk's FlexCart and SmartCart Mobile Computer Lab Solutions
include our proprietary Power-Pulse/Power Management Architecture™, which
provides enough power for simultaneous recharging of up to 32 laptops, with
32 additional batteries, and all peripherals from one standard electrical outlet,
generator, or via solar power - at half the cost.

BATTERY RECHARGING SOLUTIONS

With EarthWalk's unique built-in PowerSmart Recharging Battery Solutions, your mobile computer lab will not be idle while batteries are being charged. EarthWalk's BatteryBay recharging drawer (for eBuddy laptop batteries) or our PowerStation
(for recharging the universal "ALL DAY" SideKick PowerPack Battery) allows laptop users continuous ALL-DAY computer use.
The BatteryBay and PowerStation chargers fit neatly into any of our FlexCart, SmartCart Mobile Computer Lab Solutions,
or they can be utilized as a stand alone complement to your existing equipment.

SIDEKICK BATTERY PACK - Advanced Battery Technology

The SideKick PowerPack Battery was developed to provide
schools with a universal, "ALL DAY" battery power solution.
Compatible with most brands of laptops, the
SideKick PowerPack Battery offers 2-3 times
more battery power and usable life span than
standard laptop batteries.

Spearheaded by the latest advancement in battery technology,
some of which are utilized in the hybrid automobile industry,
the product developers at EarthWalk set out to create the premier
portable power source for wireless mobile computer labs.

The SideKick's advanced battery chemistry allows it to provide
both longer laptop operational time and a longer battery life span.
This 120-watt external power source has a usable life span that is
more than twice that of traditional Lithium-Ion batteries used
in laptop computers today.

As part of EarthWalk's PowerSmart Solutions, the SideKick PowerPack Battery can be configured with either the "eCharger Caddy" or the "PowerStation," which integrates into either of our FlexCart or SmartCart Mobile Computer Lab Solutions.
