Mobility Electronics, Inc. a leading provider of innovative portable power and computing solutions for the mobile electronic device user, announced today that it is now shipping the new iGo wall 160 power adapter, a universal AC adapter designed to offer power solutions for high-performance, power-hungry notebook computers with features such as large screens, high-end video cards and desktop processors.

As with all iGo power adapters, the voltage and current are automatically regulated to OEM specifications, allowing customers to use the adapter with confidence, without worrying about manual adjustments.

Bundled with the iGo dualpower® accessory, the adapter allows users to simultaneously charge notebook computers and other low-power mobile electronic (ME) devices such as mobile phones, PDAs, MP3 players, and digital cameras. Each package also includes several interchangeable tips to support a variety of portable computers.
