Backpack-transformer SOOT

What, besides bad weather, can spoil a good country walk? That's right, poor cellular communication (there are, of course, extreme people who deliberately refuse the benefits of civilization, but they are a clear minority). In third place on the scale of troubles after unpleasant weather conditions and the lack of a network signal are discharged smartphones, and with them other devices: music players, tablets and cameras.

It took US company SOOT Electropack less than a month last fall to raise $83,633 on kickstarter.com to produce a convertible backpack capable of charging up to four mobile devices simultaneously.

But first things first.

1. Firstly, the backpack consists of two parts: a 10L Mini Messenger bag and a 24L Commuter full-fledged backpack.

2. Mini Messenger is able to fit a DSLR, mobile phone and some of the little things you need on the road.

3. You can put something more serious in a 24-liter Commuter: a laptop or a tablet.

4. Of course, by combining these two parts, you can bring the volume of the backpack up to 34 liters.

5. However, the main feature of the offer is the built-in 10,000 mA battery in an aluminum case, which, according to the company, is the thinnest in its class. Each part of the backpack-transformer can be equipped with such a device, which has two USB ports.

6. The price of a two-piece backpack with one charger is $239, with two "charges" - $279.

7. True, the manufacturer's website does not indicate how many transformer backpacks have already been sent to customers.
