It's not exactly tiny, but if it were, you wouldn't be able to hold it properly

Hammers have been used for building things, breaking things, smashing things (although the Hulk likes to think his fists are better for that), fighting, and flattening things in general. Now, USB charging has been added to the list.

It's all Thor's fault. Since he likes to wield a thunder-spewing hammer, the folks from a company called Infothink figured they might as well reproduce the effect on a smaller scale.

So they created the Mjolnir battery charger, which is basically a small hammer that hides a Sanyo rechargeable battery pack inside the head.

Plug a USB cable into the hammer and the other end into your phone and voila! Energy is restored.

There's a micro-USB charging port there too, at the same 2.1 AMP as the full-size one. Thus, you can charge both phones and tablets.

The hammer weighs 450 grams / 0.99 lbs, measures 130 x 80 x 50 mm / 5.11 x 3.14 x 1.96 inches, and has a price of $125 / €93. In addition to 2600 mAh, there will be 5200 mAh and 10400 mAh options.
