YoGen is a
portable device charger
that you hand crank using a pull string. It promises a charge rate about on par with a plug-in wall charger. You probably won't be using this as your primary device charger; it's for emergency use or extenuating circumstances where no power outlet is available, like when you're camping... or fishing or stranded on a desert island, if the super cheesy commercials (embedded after the break) are to be believed.Download this episode now
