"We are offering iPhone users a clear solution for getting the most out of their hardware while treading lightly on the environment," says uNu CEO, Sen Cai.

Highlights of the new Ecopak for iPhone 5 include:

• 2500mAh battery to more than double iPhone 5 battery life on the go
• Detachable battery pack for easy portability when additional power is not required
• Universal USB output for power sharing with any other mobile device
• Choice of 8 colorful snap cases, plus 3 styles of detachable battery, total 24 combinations
• Accurate LED power indicator to eliminate unnecessary recharge

uNu Ecopak Recycling Program
As of 2010, the Environmental Protection Agency estimated that the national recycling rate of mobile devices and electronics with rechargeable batteries was about 10 percent.
