Located not too far from CNET's London office is Quick-e Charge. The company's one-time-use charging banks are for when you need to boost your device, but can't find an outlet.
Founder Stefan Michael says the banks currently sell at a handful of stores in London. Prices range from £1.99 (for a phone) to £2.49 (a tablet) to £3.49 (a MacBook). You can choose from a selection of adaptors.
Each power bank is encased in a postage-paid envelope. Once you've charged your phone, drop the envelope (and charger) in a mailbox to return it to Quick-e. The company then recycles the envelope, recharges the bank and sells it again.
Another CES first-timer, Michael says he came to Las Vegas to get exposure and eventually sell in the US. He said he was exhausted, partially because he dragged the red postage box in the previous photo to CES all the way from London.
Studio 19 makes a sweet-looking Bluetooth floor speaker. The Solo E600X-EQ has a lighted base and has four to six hours of music playback on a single charge. It sells for $499 or £385 (roughly AU$635). If you'd like an Alexa-enabled remote control, the price is $579 or £400 (roughly AU$735).
