Asus UL80JT Boasts A 12-hour Battery Life

[CES 2010] You might have been drooling over the Asus ROG ᯡJh high-end notebook during CES, and missed the UL80JT. While this laptop is also powerful, as it boasts an Intel Core i7 CPU, Nvidia GeForce 310 graphics chip, it’s also energy efficient. This is due to it being able to re-clock its CPU on a second-by-second basis, and well as switch between the Nvidia GeForce 310 and Intel GMA. With all that in place, it boasts an amazing 12-hour battery life, which is rarely ever seen on a notebook, much less a high-powered one (albeit running at lower speeds for battery efficiency). So would you rather go for the raw power of the Asus ROG ᯡJh, or the energy efficiency of the UL80JT?

G-Fi Will Share The GPS Love

[CES 2010] What do you do when your devices don’t have a GPS chip built-in? The folks over at PosiMotion had a rather interesting device at CES 2010, the G-Fi. What this device does is receive a GPS signal, and shares the information to other devices via Wi-Fi. Measuring in at 3.08 inches by 2.91 inches by 0.69 inch and weighing about 2.5 ounces, it’s about the size of an iPhone, and can share GPS data with up to 254 wireless networking devices. With a 4-hour battery life, you could probably take this (along with your 1st gen iPhone) with you on a nice road trip. It might seem a tad pricey at $179, but you don’t see many devices (if any) offering similar features, right?

Horizon Hydrofill Hydrogen Refueling and Storage Solution

[CES 2010] We published about Horizon Hydrofill, when it was announced prior to CES on Jan. 4th, and we got a chance to see the device at the show. Hydrofill is a major fuel cell innovation, allowing everyone to have a personal hydrogen generator and portable hydrogen cartridges. The Hydrofill system basically extracts hydrogen from water using electrolysis, and store it in the Hydrostick solid hydrogen cartridges. 60 W DC power is enoufght to extract 10 liters of Hydrogen per hour and fill one of the Hydrostcik cartrigdge. According to Horizon, the metal hydride alloys contained in the cartridge absorb hydrogen into their crystalline structure and creates the highest volumetric energy density of any form of hydrogen storage. Horrizon Hydrofill can be powered by AC power, a solar panel or a small wind turbine.
