Charge Your Phone Without Charger

The other day I was out  charge on my phone which is a rare thing considering that I got a HTC Incredible s. It has quite a good battery backup. I was using it for two days after recharging it. It was quite a bit of juice but I was back to charger. Smart phones are awesome phones they serve you in many ways but not for a longer time.

As i use 3G network on my phone, the battery drain is quick and i end up searching for a charger in the midnight while surfing on net using my phone. Then I thought of something like can we make our phone's juice to last longer by making some improvements in battery? But no still if you make any improvements in your phone's battery you need to recharge the battery which again makes the same sentence. Then I gone through some websites and blogs and found some interesting ways to charge your phones

Here are some of the websites and blogs where you can find nice ways to make you phone live :)

Interestingly a lot of these were invented by Nokia in an attempt to make the lives of all better, but the lack of good software (ahem .. Android) has kind of made it difficult for Nokia to make it big in the market, we might be able to see some of these innovations in the Mobile Phones running Windows Mobile. Keeping fingers crossed to see the Lumia 900 with one of these built in.

From notifications that require attention of the users towards energy saving and other power saving tips to alerts when Phone batteries are fully charged, the chargers require an upgrade if possible to go with apps that are coming up on phones to do the same on the software side. All in all it seems like a really required innovation that the manufacturers are keeping away from the consumers, even though it seems like they have most of these figured out. Well only time will tell if these innovations will get lost or really get implemented into future phones. Are you listening Google, Apple and ofcourse Nokia.
