Reserve Strap wants to be your Apple Watch battery extender

<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p class="intro">Just like there are power cases for iPhones, the Reserve Strap — still in prototype — hopes to extend the battery life of the Apple Watch.</p> <!--break--> <iframe src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/109744025" width="640" height="421" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen="" mozallowfullscreen="" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> <p>The Reserve Strap is a prototype accessory for the Apple Watch that wants to give you extra time to actively use the device. While there are no solid numbers yet on just how long the Watch's battery should last Apple has indicated that it will last about a day. The Reserve Strap uses two small batteries in conjunction with an inductive charging cradle.</p> <p>From the Reserve Strap website:</p>
<p>These photos show our first concept--a silicon band with embedded lithium polymer cells and an inductive charging cradle between your wrist and the Apple Watch. Through prototyping, we've refined this design and come up with a few other ways to charge the Watch that we can't wait to share with you.</p>
<p>As previously noted, this is a prototype. What's more, there's a better than decent chance that it won't even work. Apple hasn't announced any sort of accessory plans for the Watch, and while their MFi program could be expanded to include accessories that connect to Apple Watch, there's no guarantee that this will make the cut.</p> <p>Despite this, the company is taking pre-orders for the strap for $249.99, which the company says can be refunded at any time.</p> <div class="devicebox"> <h3>Apple Watch</h3> <div class="video"><div class="video_iframe"><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/oSWq43X9S_M?rel=0&amp;autoplay=0&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;controls=2&amp;autohide=1&amp;showinfo=0" width="627" height="353" class="video-filter video-youtube vf-oswq43x9sm" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></div></div> <!--/video--> <ul><li>Apple Watch event</li> <li>Apple Watch buyers guide</li> <li>Apple Watch FAQ</li> <li>Apple Watch news hub</li> <li>Apple Watch discussion</li> <li>WatchKit FAQ</li> <li>WatchKit best practices</li> </ul></div> <div> <style> <!--/*--><![CDATA[/* ><!--*/ <!--/*--><![CDATA[/* ><!--*/ <!--/*--><![CDATA[/* ><!--*/ .devicebox { background-color: #5CB8DB; border: 1px solid #E2E9EB; float: right; display: block; margin: 0 0px 10px 10px; max-width: 350px; overflow: hidden; width: 50%; } .devicebox h3 { background: #8D98BD; color: #fff; font-family: "camptonmedium",sans-serif; font-size: 20px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 0; padding: 0; text-align: center; } .devicebox h3 a { display: block; line-height: 30px; padding: 0 10px; } .devicebox h3 a:hover { background: #7e88aa; text-decoration: none; } .devicebox .video { margin: auto; border: 0px; } .devicebox p, .entry-content .devicebox p > img, .devicebox img { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; } .devicebox, .devicebox a, .devicebox a:active, .devicebox a:hover, .devicebox a:link, .devicebox a:visited, .devicebox p, .devicebox ul, .devicebox ul li, .devicebox li { color: #fff; } .devicebox a:hover { text-decoration: underline; } .devicebox p, .devicebox ul, .devicebox ul li, .devicebox li { border-width: 0px; font-family: "camptonlight",sans-serif; font-size: 16px; padding: initial; } .devicebox ul { margin: 0; padding: 0.5em 1em 1em 30px; } .devicebox ul li { display: list-item; } .devicebox ul, .devicebox ul li, .devicebox li { line-height: 24px; list-style: disc outside none; } .devicebox ul li:before { display: none; } .devicebox ul + p { padding: 0px 15px 15px; line-height: 1.25; } .field-items p:last-of-type + .devicebox, .slide p:last-of-type + .devicebox, .article-body-wrap p:last-of-type + .devicebox { float: none; margin: 0 auto 30px; max-width: 700px; min-height: 225px; position: relative; width: 100%; } .field-items p:last-of-type + .devicebox .video, .slide p:last-of-type + .devicebox .video, .article-body-wrap p:last-of-type + .devicebox .video { bottom: 0px; left: 50%; position: absolute; right: 0px; top: 30px; } .field-items p:last-of-type + .devicebox .video_iframe, .slide p:last-of-type + .devicebox .video_iframe, .article-body-wrap p:last-of-type + .devicebox .video_iframe { height: 100%; padding: 0px; } .field-items p:last-of-type + .devicebox ul, .slide p:last-of-type + .devicebox ul, .article-body-wrap p:last-of-type + .devicebox ul { width: 43%; } .field-items p:last-of-type + .devicebox h3 + p, .slide p:last-of-type + .devicebox h3 + p, .article-body-wrap p:last-of-type + .devicebox h3 + p { bottom: 0; left: 50%; position: absolute; right: 0; top: 30px; } .field-items p:last-of-type + .devicebox h3 + p img, .slide p:last-of-type + .devicebox h3 + p img, .article-body-wrap p:last-of-type + .devicebox h3 + p img { height: auto; min-height: 100%; min-width: 100%; } @media all and (max-width: 500px) { .devicebox { float: none; margin: 0; max-width: 100%; width: 100%; } .field-items p:last-of-type + .devicebox .video, .slide p:last-of-type + .devicebox .video, .article-body-wrap p:last-of-type + .devicebox .video { left: 0; position: relative; top: 0; } .field-items p:last-of-type + .devicebox .video_iframe, .slide p:last-of-type + .devicebox .video_iframe, .article-body-wrap p:last-of-type + .devicebox .video_iframe { padding-bottom: 56.25%; } .field-items p:last-of-type + .devicebox h3 + p, .slide p:last-of-type + .devicebox h3 + p, .article-body-wrap p:last-of-type + .devicebox h3 + p { left: 0; position: relative; top: 0; } .field-items p:last-of-type + .devicebox ul, .slide p:last-of-type + .devicebox ul, .article-body-wrap p:last-of-type + .devicebox ul { width: auto; } } /*--><!]]]]]]><![CDATA[><![CDATA[>*/ /*--><!]]]]><![CDATA[>*/ /*--><!]]>*/ </style></div> </div></div></div><div id="comment-wrapper-nid-30372"></div><img width='1' height='1' src='http://tipb.com.feedsportal.com/c/33998/f/616881/s/441e244c/sc/4/mf.gif' border='0'/><br clear='all'/>
