The new Jumpr Mini, which is an ultra-thin and extremely lightweight battery, has the capacity to boost most smartphones’ batteries 55-85% on a single charge.

Equipped with an expandable USB port, the Mini is able to store 1350MAh of power, the company said.

Commenting on the launch, Ascent Solar Branding & Marketing manager Justin Jacobs said the Jumpr Mini that is small enough to fit into a wallet or purse has the capacity to provide a boost whenever needed.

"The Jumpr Mini is perfect for those who need a quick charge while they are on the go and a lifesaver for those who do not always have easy access to an outlet," added Jacobs.

Ascent Solar Technologies develops thin-film photovoltaic modules with substrate materials that are more flexible, versatile and rugged than traditional solar panels. Its modules can be directly integrated into consumer products and off-grid applications, as well as aerospace and building integrated applications.
