It's a green no-brainer: the less electricity you use, the less power you consume, and the smaller your carbon footprint. As members of Generation Never Disconnected, we sometimes forget that our carbon boots get bigger and bigger with each gadget in our travel bag. This year, green-minded techies will want to make room for the iGo Laptop Charger with iGo Green Technology in that crowded tote. Built to power notebooks from most major manufacturers including HP, Dell, Acer and Lenovo, the iGo also includes a cord for USB-powered devices such as cell phones, portable media players, and Bluetooth headsets. Divest yourself of that tangle of cords for all your important devices and trade them for iGo tips. Charge your devices anywhere, including the car or an airplane, with the included auto/air adapter. And here's the real spark: the iGo Laptop Charger earns its green cred by automatically knowing when to shut off, thus using 85% less standby power. This ability to eliminate vampire power – that is, to use power only when your plugged-in devices really need it and not drink non-essential juice – will save you wattage over time and help eliminate your ever-widening carbon footprint.
