The Ion Belt is a 3000mAh battery pack that you can wear around your waist
Just like any self-respecting battery pack, the Ion Belt also comes with an LED indicator that shows you how much juice is left in the battery. The Ion Belt can be charged through a USB plug that doubles as the buckle lock, and you can charge your smartphone by plugging a USB cable in the other end of the belt.
The inventor behind the Ion Belt says that you don't have to worry about the battery pack getting damaged and literally lighting your pants on fire, as a patented technology ensures that the Li-Ion battery modules are properly isolated from the outside world.
If the KickStarter campaign turns out to be successful, the Ion Belt will be priced at $139, considerably pricier than any standard battery pack currently out there. At the time this article was published, the Ion Belt project had raised $28,360 out of its $50,000 goal with 39 days to go.
The belt itself is made out of black hand-finished leather and comes with polished buckles, which makes it generic enough to fit with most outfits. On the other hand, you'll notice that this isn's a slim belt that you're likely to wear at a fancy dinner party.
