The Paid Cellphone Charging Station

Posted on November 21st, 2008. Written by Rico.

On a recent trip to Mini Stop, I encountered this cellphone charging station that sells up to 30 minutes of charging time, for 5 pesos per 10 minutes.

This paid charging station also supports—aside from Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Samsung, Siemens, and Motorola phones—iPods and PSPs. Pics of the complete unit for those who continue.

Click on the thumbnails below to see this paid convenience in all its glory!

I remember encountering something similar during a trip to Davao last year in one of the malls there. :)

There are several Nokia charging stations in Eastwood that are free. But they’re only for Nokia. And I recall seeing some charging stations in Megamall way before.

And if I’m not mistaken, all Burger Kings here in the Philippines have free charging stations, for Nokias, Motorolas, and Samsungs.

We will have piso charging (coin slot) of cellphones, psp, mp3 player etc. Just like in 7/11 or mini stop only this time we’re going to go sari-sari stores and food stops. Quikie Charger — we’ll call it!
