Nokia introduces alternative charging solution

Nokia Global Group, the manufacturers of Nokia mobile phones, has introduced a new alternative charging solution for Nokia mobile phones users especially to those in the rural areas, where there are no electricity. The new charging solution was officially launched in Nairobi, Kenya.

This new product provides free and environmentally friendly electricity for mobile phone users. The Nokia Bicycle Charger Kit consists of a charger and dynamo, as well as a holder to secure the phone to any bike.

When the kit is installed, the dynamo, a small electrical generator uses the movement of the wheels to charge the handset through the standard 2mm charging jack used in most Nokia mobile phones.

Now, with the Nokia innovative bike charger, people get even more freedom to use their Nokia without worrying about battery life.

Brad Brockhaug, the head of Nokia Africa, said bicycles are the most widespread means of transport in many markets around the world, so this is just one more benefit to be gained from an activity people are already doing.

“This is a great solution to a real challenge, whether people will use it due to limited access to electricity, or to be more environmentally responsible,” said Brockhaug.

He indicated that the product is compatible with millions of Nokia devices and bicycles.

He noted that they did this to improve the lives of many rural folks through this Nokia Community Investment.

The kit will be available before the end of the year in selected retailers and Nokia online and branded retail. After using this charger to charge mobile phones it last for more than a week.
