Altoids Tin – RoadWarrior – USB Charger, LED flashlight, 4gb flashdrive, bluetooth receiver

I know, the title is insane. This is my 3rd or 4th offering to the altoids tin arena of projects. I travel quite a lot on business and am always in need of a few things, namely, a USB device charger, flashdrive or memory stick, small flashlight, USB hub and of course the handy bluetooth receiver. So, here it all is in one package!! Introducing, the Altoids “RoadWarrior” Survival Kit a.k.a the “Minty-MEGAboost” !! Powered by 8, yes 8AAA batteries (4×4 in parallel) for a total of 6 volts and +/- 2200mah of charging goodness. This will charge my ipods/phones many times over and when there’s isn’t enough juice to keep on charging there is plenty to power the high intensity LED flashlight for days after. The flashdrive, USB hub and bluetooth receiver are all powered by the computer and work flawlessly. This thing goes everywhere I do…..except on airplanes (freaks security out bad)! -Side note: Because I’m using two 4AAA packs in parallel I can use the device with only 4 or all 8AAA batteries, handy!
