Gearing up for that huge snowboarding trip to rip some serious gnar-gnar?  You might be afraid that that the cold might just be too much to bear.  You just hit the mountain and dug your iPod out of your gear bag, and wouldn’t you know it, you went and forgot to charge that beast and now you are left to shred without any tunes, and you are freezing your freakin’ butt off.  Fear not, Ardica has the answer for all your dilemmas.  Their Moshi Power Pack is the one stop shop to keep you warm while you are shredding and to keep those USB devices in your pocket nice and charged.

Moshi-son packs it’s punch through the use of and array of 7 lithium-ion batteries and a computerized power controller.  It is flat, flexible, covered in flexible foam and water resistant, and weighs about as much as two iPhones.  That isn’t a lot of weight to have a furnace and an outlet on your back.  This guy has 3 heat settings that will provide about 8.5 hours of continuous heat on low, and for those that need lots and lots of heat, it will give you 1.8 hours on high.  You don’t even have to choose between heat or charge because it does ‘em both at the same time.  As far as charging capacity, you will be able to squeeze about 10-20 charges for your USB chargeable devices like iPods/iPhones, cell phones, GPS devices, or cameras.  This of course depends on the battery capacity of said devices.

So now with every great little gadget out there, we now get to talk about integration.  You can never just buy one little thing and be happy.  The Power Pack has plug and play compatibility with the Mountain Hardware Refugium and Radiance jackets as well as the Sitka Dutch Oven vest.

Now you are fully prepared to get out there and shred some sick pow-pow and be warm and cozy with your fully charged gadgets.
