00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:07.680
Linus Tech tips coverage of CES 2014 is brought to you by nc.com your source for

00:00:05.319 --> 00:00:11.920
great technology selection and service along with Corsair memory and Western

00:00:09.920 --> 00:00:15.040
Digital now there are some similarities between what we're going to show you

00:00:12.920 --> 00:00:18.920
here in The Patriot suite at CES and what we showed you at computex last year

00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:22.840
so we showed you the fuel Plus at computex and that's available in a bunch

00:00:20.880 --> 00:00:26.480
of different capacities it's external you know on the-go power for your

00:00:24.840 --> 00:00:29.640
tablets and smartphones okay we've heard all this before but fuel plus does

00:00:28.599 --> 00:00:34.960
actually have a couple of unique features so number one is that the higher capacity models have 2 and 1 12

00:00:33.480 --> 00:00:39.320
amp charging ports meaning you can charge your devices particularly hyraw

00:00:37.239 --> 00:00:44.719
ones that support it like tablets a little bit faster than even a 2.1 amp CH

00:00:42.239 --> 00:00:47.920
uh charging port and the second thing is that they have their power pass through

00:00:46.239 --> 00:00:52.160
feature that allows you to charge not only the fuel plus by plugging it into

00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:55.199
the wall but also the connected devices so you can just plug the whole swack of

00:00:53.719 --> 00:01:00.399
things into the wall at night before you go to sleep and then it'll all be charged up when you're ready in the

00:00:58.280 --> 00:01:06.479
morning now they've updated fuel Plus to add more colors so now we have blue pink

00:01:03.760 --> 00:01:11.840
green and yellow in several different sizes and capacities and that goes along

00:01:09.479 --> 00:01:15.400
with of course the existing white ID they're also adding fuel active to the

00:01:13.600 --> 00:01:19.200
mix so that's available in a couple of different configs number one is this

00:01:17.439 --> 00:01:23.439
little aluminum job right here that I believe is a 2,000 milliamp battery it's

00:01:21.560 --> 00:01:27.159
got your USB ports on the one side and it's got oh hey a flashlight look at

00:01:25.640 --> 00:01:32.640
that on the other side so you can actually use it to charge your devices on the go or as an emergency flashlight

00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:36.640
if you're camping because you know fuel active obviously the intention is you're

00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:41.159
active we've also got a rugged one this is a 6,000 milliamp power unit and it's

00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:44.799
got an integrated cable so you can use that one in order to charge a device or

00:01:43.240 --> 00:01:48.600
it has a separate 2 and a half amp output so the little guy the 2,000 mamp

00:01:46.759 --> 00:01:52.520
doesn't have that so that's got the high amperage output it's also got like kind

00:01:50.280 --> 00:01:56.159
of a ruggedized case and then last but not least let's see if I can there's

00:01:54.799 --> 00:02:00.880
like there's like a trick I think you have to like double click it or something oh this one's probably not

00:01:58.880 --> 00:02:04.960
charged anyway it has an entire Bank of LEDs on the one side here and that one's

00:02:02.880 --> 00:02:09.239
a dummy as well causing all kinds of trouble we'll get some b-roll of that

00:02:07.360 --> 00:02:14.000
all right next up we've got something that's completely new this is the fuel

00:02:11.640 --> 00:02:18.680
plus iPhone power case so it's for the iPhone 5 and it adds about a doubling in

00:02:17.040 --> 00:02:22.000
terms of overall battery life to your iPhone without adding too much extra

00:02:20.480 --> 00:02:26.319
bulk it's not something that we've never seen before but it does have their power

00:02:24.480 --> 00:02:29.440
pass through feature which is again a very useful feature so thanks for
