The downside of this, of course, is that if you're out and about, the responsibility of keeping your hardware fully charged is yours alone. Most people overcome this, either by attaching themselves to any available wall socket or keeping a rechargeable power pack (http://www.engadget.com/2015/01/05/ces2015-ibattz-asap-charger/) in their bag. eZelleron, however, is hoping that people will want to carry a small gas-powered generator in their pockets instead.
