San Diego State University installs portable phone charging stations

October 31, 2016

Three FuelRod SwapBox kiosks have been installed at various locations throughout the San Diego State University campus since the Spring 2016 semester, according to The Daily Aztec. The reusable, portable charging system allows charging a mobile device or swapping it for a fresh one.

The kiosks are located in The Garden dining hall at Cuicacalli Suites, University Towers Kitchen and the SDSU Bookstore. Additional kiosks are located in some Westfield malls, the San Diego Convention Center and the San Diego International Airport.

The SwapBoxes sell FuelRod portable chargers, which come with adapters for both Android and Apple devices.

The portable chargers can be recharged in a standard wall outlet by the user, or swapped out at any FuelRod SwapBox kiosk for another identical, fully-charged FuelRod.

The kiosks are mainly located in the San Diego area, but they are also located in the Sacramento International Airport and the Sheraton Philadelphia Downtown Hotel, according to the company's website.
