Hasta La Gadget!

Mimoco has long been a name that is associated with fun looking USB flash drives, and this time around, they have decided to jump aboard the Kickstarter bandwagon by launching a new product line there known as the BatteryBot. The BatteryBot happens to be a portable backup battery charger which will feature an array of characters as well as unique features such as LED indicator lights that are located on the feet of each character.

This would make the BatteryBot as the world’s first and only character-based rechargeable backup battery for a range of devices, including smartphones, tablets and mobile devices. There will be 10 initial BatteryBot designs to kick things off, where they happen to hail from the Animal Critterz and Core Series collections. Of course, if you want to get more intimate with them, the 10 primary BatteryBot styles would be Terry Le Bat (a Kickstarter exclusive), Shocky Shark, Powly Owly, Larry LobstAh, Turbo Turtle, Galaxor, Pawly PandAh, RayD8, Psy, and PowAh KowAh.

The BatteryBot arrives with a 5,200mAh battery capacity. Of course, that would be the minimum, as depending on how well this particular project goes, it might just increase with stretch goals down the road. Would you fork out anywhere from $70 to $80 for this puppy should it make the cut?

Mimoco‘s Legends of MIMOBOT Series has a wide range of characters in it, such as the Star Trek X line that was released back in November, and the Bruce Lee drive before that in August. Now the company has released its latest characters, these ones in honor of President’s Day – George Washington and Abraham Lincoln USB flash drives.

The Legends of MIMOBOT line of drives is meant to commemorate the legends among us, whether they’re cultural icons, certified geniuses, or your friendly neighborhood superhero. In line with the series are the U.S. Presidential flash drives, one featuring the likeness of Abraham Lincoln, and the other of George Washington, both decked out with their most distinguishing characteristics, such as Washington’s suit and Lincoln’s bow tie.

Both drives are being released only in limited editions, and as with other drives in the series, they come loaded with content pertaining to which ever character you choose. Buying the George Washington drive, for example, will get you Washington-themed avatars, wallpapers, and icons, while the same applies with the Lincoln drive. The Washington MIMOBOT is hand-numbered and only 1,000 are being produced.

Both drives can be had in 8GB, 16GB, and 128GB varieties, priced $19.99, $29.99, and $129.99, respectively. Both drives are USB 2.0, and are compatible with Windows and OS X. The drives feature a one-year limited warranty, and measure in at a fairly large 2.5-inches high by 1-inch wide. You can grab your own now directly from Mimoco.
