MULTI-AWARD-WINNING UGREEN TO LAUNCH ULTRA-COMPACT POWER BANKS FOR SINGAPORE MARKET

Owner of 1,400 Design, Practical and Invention Patents Next-Gen Storage and Portable Battery Charging Devices Continue Changing the Way We Interact with Tech

SINGAPORE, Aug. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — UGREEN is pleased to announce the launch of its latest innovation in high capacity, fast-charging power banks. Weighing 64 to 112g less than its competitors with the same capacity, the UGREEN Nexode is "ultra-compact". The column design streamlines the power bank’s dimensions, thereby enhancing the grip and overall handling experience. Two variations – 12000mAh 100W and 20000mAh 130W – will be available for purchase on Shopee, Lazada and TikTok Shop from 23 August 2024. Offline retailers will also carry the products at a later date

UGREEN was founded in 2012 and by 2014, had expanded into more than 100 countries.  In 2019, it won the IF Design Award[1] and Red Dot Award[2] for its innovative portable designs.  As one of the early adoptors of the advanced column design which internally stacks components to maximise space utilisation, UGREEN has been committed to crafting ultra-compact power banks since the start. With a powerful vision to remain user-centred and dedicated to innovative technology, the company has garnered more than 1,400 design and technical patents under its belt and continuously develops products to enhance lives and humanity.  In 2021, UGREEN was invested in by the investment giant, Hillhouse Capital[3], who has also funded high-quality and sustainable businesses such as Tencent, Miniso and Zoom.

A Battery Charger For the Future of Devices

With increasing reliance on electronic devices, consumers carry several electronic devices with them throughout the day, all of which require recharging at some point.  In endeavouring to stay true to their mission and make lives better, UGREEN specifically focused on developing higher capacity power banks to reduce weight and stress on users.  Often lauded as the only power bank worth having, UGREEN has delighted users since the launch of its first Nexode GaN chargers in 2021.

The dual-port output of the Nexode power bank fast charges 2 devices simultaneously, and the 2C1A interface allows users to charge of up to 3 devices at the same time. A smart TFT display gives real-time, intuitive information, and the switchable trickle mode allows users to reduce the charging current for different devices in order to safely charge low-current devices such as Bluetooth earphones and smartwatches. The power bank also comes with built-in real temperature monitoring and heat dissipation functions with a V-0 flame retardant casing that further reassures users of its overall safety.

The UGREEN Nexode 12000mAh 100W and 20000mAh 130W Power Banks retail for SGD 109.99 and SG 69.99 respectively.

More details on the UGREEN Nexode Power Banks is given in Appendix A.

Automotive Grade Lithium-ion Power Cell

PB721: It adopts the 21700 battery cell, which is a new type of lithium-ion battery. Well-known electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla also uses the 21700 battery cell internally. Compared to the traditional 18650 battery cell, the 21700 battery cell has a higher energy density, allowing for more capacity in a smaller volume, and it has a longer lifespan and better durability. It supports up to 800 cycles (80% or more capacity retention). After a continuous aging test of 120 days, the performance remains the same. In addition, it has passed multiple certifications such as the CESI national standard, US UL certification, UN38.3 and MSDS transportation reports, as well as CB certification.

Large capacity in a compact size, extended lifespan
The 21700 battery cells have a higher energy density, allowing our power bank to accommodate more capacity in a smaller size, providing a longer charging lifespan. Moreover, these battery cells have a longer lifespan and better durability, making our power bank more durable. After 800 charge and discharge cycles, the capacity still retains over 80%, making it more long-lasting. With multiple certifications, it is also safer.

PB724: It adopts the 18650 battery cell, which is a type of lithium-ion battery. Compared to pouch batteries, it has a longer lifespan and better durability. After a continuous aging test of 120 days, the performance remains the same. It has also undergone multiple certifications including the CESI national standard and US UL certification, as well as UN38.3 and MSDS transportation reports, and CB certification, making it safer.

Moreover, this battery cell has a longer lifespan and better durability, making our power bank more durable and long-lasting. With multiple certifications, it is also safer.

Thermal Guard™ System

It is equipped with a large area metal heat sink and NTC temperature control detection, with temperature measurements conducted 200 times per second.

Real-time temperature monitoring, high-speed heat dissipation, safe and reassuring
It is equipped with a large metal heat sink, which allows for faster heat conduction. The NTC temperature control detection system monitors temperature fluctuations in real-time, conducting temperature measurements 200 times per second, to prevent the power bank from overheating and mitigate the risk of self-ignition or explosion. The shell is made of V-0 flame retardant material, which complies with the V-0 fire protection grade in the international flame retardancy standard UL94, effectively preventing combustion or slowing down its spread.

Premium Minimalistic Design

 It adopts the advanced column design, with the high-quality spray painting process and a gray color scheme.

Premium and minimalist, business demeanor
With a power-column design and a space gray color scheme, it has a visually refreshing, high-end, and minimalist visual style, suitable for business professionals who appreciate a high-end demeanor and meets the needs of tech-savvy users. The power-column design also makes it more compact in size, convenient for one-handed grip, and easy to use during travel without any fuss.

Wide Compatibility with 1000+ Devices

Supports charging protocols such as PD, PPS, QC, AFC, FCP, SCP, UFCS, compatible with mainstream electronic devices from various brands.

Compatible with 1000+ devices, simplify complexity
Supports charging protocols such as PD, PPS, QC, AFC, FCP, SCP, UFCS, covering mainstream electronic devices from various brands, and has a wide range of charging compatibility. It is also compatible with low current electronic products such as Bluetooth earphones and smartwatches for charging.

Anti-slip Pad

The side of the power bank is designed with anti-slip pads to enhance friction when placed on a flat surface.

Anti-slip pads for stable and secure standing
During simultaneous charging with multiple ports, it is often necessary to stably place the power bank to avoid accidentally dropping fragile electronic products along with the cables. We have added anti-slip pads in the product design, which prevent sliding when placed horizontally, providing a more stable and reliable working environment.

Airline Approved

Rated capacity is 44Wh (PB724) and 72Wh (PB721), compliant with boarding requirements.

No battery anxiety on board
Usually, US and German flights restrict power banks with a capacity of over 100Wh from being brought onto the plane. Our power bank has a rated capacity of 72Wh, so it complies with the boarding requirements. You can freely carry our power bank on board, and there will be no battery anxiety during long-haul flights.

Trickle Charging Mode

Supports trickle charging mode, which reduces the current to adapt to low current devices such as Bluetooth earphones and smartwatches.

Switchable trickle mode, safe fast charging, and extended battery life for smartphones and other devices. It can also provide safe charging for low-current devices such as Bluetooth earphones and smartwatches.
