Kensington has announced new case and car charger for the iPad.
For the iPad, Kensington offers the PowerBack Battery Case with Kickstand and Dock ($130), an all-in-one design that adds a battery and a three-position kickstand, along with protective casing and dock abilities. The built-in 4400mAh battery is claimed to provide up to five extra hours for the iPad. The kickstand works in landscape, portrait and what the Kendington calls “typing” positions. It also features a Micro USB charge and sync port, an LED battery gauge, and built-in speaker deflectors.
The Kensington Wall Pack Duo Charger ($30) and new PowerBolt Duo Car Charger ($30) both offer the ability to charge two iPad, iPhone or iPod devices from a single wall or car outlet. The wall charger works at 2.1 Amps; the auto charger features one 2.1 Amp port and a single 1 Amp port for iPhones and iPods. The wall charger also uses a low-profile plug design to avoid blocking other wall outlets. Both include a detachable USB sync cable, charge iPhone and iPod Touches running iOS 3.0 or later as well, and have an LED power indicator.
The accessories are currently available on pre-order via Amazon or Kensington and are expected to start shipping in time for the holiday season.
