Autonome concept is both a backup battery and charger

Even if you're rocking the Motorola Droid Razr Maxx, you know smartphone battery life leaves a lot to be desired. Carrying an extra battery or your phone charger is one way to ensure you don't run out of juice during the day, but what if it could be easier than that?

Enter the Autonome. This concept smartphone charger by designer Francois Rybarczyk is both simple and elegant. When you need a charge, simply flip up the adapter and plug your smartphone right into the outlet.

In addition, the Autonome has a removable battery module that you can charge while you're still using your phone, and then snap back in when it's full or you need power.

There are, of course, a number of extended battery packs and cases available for smartphones today, but the Autonome still looks like a sleek solution. Plus, you won't be kicking yourself next time you go on a trip and forget to pack your phone charger. Alas, it looks like Rybarczyk's creation is only a concept for now.

I think device coming out of Southern California from Aptuspower will blow one's mind. Powered by world's smallest charger, Aptus Mobile Companion plugs into any wall outlet. Other cool thing is that you can charge your bluetooth, ipad or any other device since there is another micro-usb built in the device. Check them at www.aptuspower.com
