MOBILITY ELECTRONICS UNVEILS IGO WALL 160 POWER ADAPTER.


Mobility Electronics, Inc. (NASDAQ:MOBE), has unveiled the new iGo wall 160 power adapter, a universal AC adapter designed to offer power solutions for high-performance, power-hungry notebook computers with features such as large screens, high-end video cards and desktop processors.

The adapter now available for purchase at Radio Shack and online at http://www.igo.com.

The iGo wall 160 power adapter is a new, more powerful, generation of Mobility's line of universal AC high-power adapters and provides up to 160 watts of power. As with all iGo power adapters, the voltage and current are automatically regulated to OEM specifications, allowing customers to use the adapter with confidence, without worrying about manual adjustments.

Bundled with the iGo dualpower accessory, the adapter allows users to simultaneously charge notebook computers and other low-power mobile electronic (ME) devices such as mobile phones, PDAs, MP3 players, and digital cameras. Each package also includes several interchangeable tips to support a variety of portable computers.

"This new universal AC adapter allows us to provide solutions for the high-performance, high-power, large screen, desktop replacement notebook computers which account for nearly a quarter of the entire portable computer market," said Charles Mollo, president and chief executive officer of Mobility Electronics. "We are very pleased to offer this new product which broadens our existing AC product portfolio."

The iGo wall 160 power adapter and the branded versions manufactured for Mobility's strategic partners offer the following key features and benefits:

* Included iGo dualpower accessory -- enables simultaneous powering of a notebook computer plus a low-power mobile electronic device such as a mobile phone, handheld/PDA, digital camera, or MP3 player.

* Provides up to 160 watts of output power -- supports 90 and 120 watt notebooks with features such as large screens, high-end video cards and desktop-replacement processors.

* Automatic voltage and current regulation -- eliminates the need to select voltage manually and ensures portable computers and other devices receive the appropriate amount of power.

* Power Factor Correction -- balances the AC power circuit so that as little reactive power as possible is formed.

* Automatic temperature protection -- results in much cooler operation, higher reliability and a longer useful life than competing power adapters.

* Mobility Electronics' patented itip technology -- allows users to power and charge virtually all major brands of ME devices with a single adapter and interchangeable tips.

* Compatible with most RVs, European trucks, military and police vehicles, etc.

* Certification for use in European Union Countries.
