Have you ever think of combing a USB charger and a standard AA battery? Now designer making this idea into reailty.Making a rechargeable battery that recharges via USB. Imagine that you have a device that can't charge its replaceable batteries via USB and yet you don't want to carry around a separate charger. This is where the AA / USB rechargeable batteries come in as they literally have removable adapter caps which allow them to be used in place of standard AA batteries; and by removing the end cap can be plugged into a empty USB port to recharge. Now imagine a device which can not only do all that but also doubles as a flash drive and you have the idea behind the all new AA USB concept design.
The all AA USB literally is an AA battery form factor flash drive which can do double duty! Simply twisting the end and poping out (or poping in)a recessed USB port. Making this AA battery into a USB drive and vice-versa. Even better is the LED indicator which will tell you how much charge is left in it’s integrated Lithium-ion battery. This really does sound extremely cool and yet we can just imagine the amount of headaches IT security admin are going to have with this! Can you imagine how hard it is going to be to keep these things out of areas where flash drives are not allowed? We can also imagine how short the battery life is going to be as that is a lot of stuff to cram into an AA form factor. Luckily for all you IT staff out there, before you reach for the Tylenol this is still only a concept design and may never see the light of day beyond the drawing board!
