At booth #6106 in the Las Vegas Convention Center, Trident Case is showcasing its Apple Watch accessories, including the Valet Charging Pedestal and Curve Charging Mount; Electra Qi Power Base 6000; Microsoft Surface Pro 4 protective solutions; and more. 

“We’re thrilled to showcase our latest solutions at the biggest consumer electronics show in the world,” Trident Case Vice President of Sales and Marketing Steve Bellow explained. “As mobile devices continue to expand into all aspect of our lives, Trident is dedicated to providing solutions that not only keep every popular device protected, but also make the device easier and more enjoyable to use. The products we’re exhibiting at CES deliver on this promise, providing more options to mobile device users than ever before.”

For Apple Watch users, Trident offers two new solutions to make charging the device easier than ever. First, the Valet Charging Pedestal creates a charging station that’s simple, effective and aesthetically pleasing, allowing users to charge their iPhone and Apple Watch simultaneously. Crafted with plush fabric lining and a premium leather finish, the Valet fits seamlessly into any setting. Next, the six-inch Curve Charging Mount provides an in-car power solution for users on the go. This innovative accessory enables users to wirelessly charge and mount their Apple Watch in environments that require flexibility. Compatible with all versions of the Apple Watch, the unique design of the 6-inch Curve Charging Mount bends to fit in a variety of different spaces, while simultaneously managing messy cables.

Combining Qi technology with a 6000 mA/h battery, the Electra Qi Power Base 6000 wireless charger powers Qi compatible phones as well as other devices through a USB cable. With the ability to charge two mobile devices at once, the device allows Qi-enabled devices to charge on its base, while a USB port is available to power a second device. This USB charging feature can support all mobile devices, whether they are Qi-enabled or not.

Protecting against drops up to four feet, Trident’s new Cyclops case for the Surface Pro 4 is designed with convenience in mind, offering superior protection with minimal bulk. Useful features include water-resistant mesh that protects speakers and vents from dust and moisture and sealed device controls and ports for superior protection. The Aegis Series Signature Edition is designed with a chic, premium leather finish that protects the Surface Pro 4 against drops and bumps, with a padded, soft micro-fiber interior.

Each case can be easily fitted onto a Surface Pro 4 with the simple, snap-on installation process. Users still have complete access to all of ports and controls through openings in the side of the case. In addition, the cases are compatible with the Surface Type Cover keyboard, so users can compose documents and send emails without removing the case.

And, while they are at the booth, show attendees can check out the new Furman M-8X AR — an entry-level voltage regulator specially designed to mitigate all forms of power fluctuation while providing nine regulated and conditioned outlets for recording studios, DJs, live music applications and pro audio rigs.

WHOOSH! Expands Tech & Gadget Cleaner Line-Up at CES 2015

Underscoring the powerful retail business opportunity presented by the rapidly growing tech hygiene category, WHOOSH! Inc., creators of WHOOSH! Screen Shine screen cleaner, today announced the expansion of its 2015 product line-up with the introduction of new WHOOSH! Screen Shine Wipes and WHOOSH! BLAST compressed gas duster.  Both new products incorporate the same clean, crisp branding featured on the original WHOOSH! Screen Shine screen cleaner, providing retailers with an extremely compelling product line guaranteed to drive impulse sales of the entire product line. WHOOSH! Screen Shine Wipes and WHOOSH! Blast will be unveiled at CES 2015 at the Las Vegas Convention Center in the North Hall, Booth #6116.

“We believe that 2015 will be the year that millions of consumers finally understand the importance of practicing good tech hygiene and now WHOOSH! solutions are available in a broader array of configurations to suit individual needs and lifestyles,” explained WHOOSH! Inc. CEO Jason Greenspan.  “2014 was a year of record-breaking growth for the company that saw us gain distribution in all North American Apple stores, Walmart, Staples Canada, Target Canada, Fryes, and Shoppers Mart, among others.  In fact, WHOOSH! is now available in more than 5,000 locations here in North America.  In addition, we have begun distributing the line in Asia and Europe, with additional distributor agreements likely to come out of this CES.” 

Available for delivery in Q1, WHOOSH! Screen Shine Wipes combine pre-treated disposable wet and dry cloths into single serve packages that make them as easy to carry and use as handi-wipes are for hand cleaning.  Consumers can safely clean, polish, and protect all of their tech and gadget devices by, first, using the wet Wipe cloth and, then, polishing it with the dry cloth.  “New WHOOSH! Screen Shine Wipes deliver the same amazing super, natural, clean result as our original WHOOSH! Screen Shine screen cleaner spray,” Greenspan explained.  “Now it’s available in a different configuration to suit consumers who are very accustomed to regularly washing their hands with handi-wipe type products.”

Also available for immediate delivery in a 10-ounce canister at a suggested retail price of $8.99., new WHOOSH! BLAST compressed gas duster is designed to enable consumers to maintain a more complete tech hygiene program — particularly as it applies to their notebooks and PCs, which often attract all sorts of dirt, dust, and crumbs in and around the keyboard.  “New WHOOSH! BLAST has been designed to deliver an burst of compressed gas that effectively ‘blasts’ dirt, dust, and crumbs out from among the keyboard keys.  Then consumers can use their WHOOSH! Screen Shine solution of choice to complete the cleaning and polishing of their device.”   

In conjunction with the introduction of an expanded product line At CES 2015 Greenspan said that the company will once again host its free Screen Check-Up for all show attendees who want to see just how dirty their phone or tablet screen is.  “Our before and after test will really demonstrate just how effective WHOOSH! Screen Shine is, and when the test is complete, we will give each person a free trial sample of WHOOSH! Screen Shine.”

WHOOSH! Screen Shine is the next generation screen cleaner that is made with non-toxic and biodegradable surfactants instead of with harsh chemicals that can damage mobile devices. Leveraging the latest advancements in formula development, WHOOSH! is specifically developed to be a safe yet powerful cleaning solution that cleans both screens and devices — makingthem shine like new while leaving an ultra-thin invisible coating that provides a resistance to dirt build-up, smudges, and fingerprints.  WHOOSH! does not contain alcohol, acids, ammonia, chlorine, petroleum distillates, phosphates or volatile organic compounds. 

WHOOSH! is available for purchase at all North American Apple stores and at more than 2500 Walmart stores, as well as in Target Canada, Staples Canada, Canadian Tire, and Shoppers Drug Mart stores. WHOOSH! can also be purchased at www.whooshscreenshine.com. 

WHOOSH! Screen Shine is available in a number of sizes:  Duo+ (one 3.4 fluid ounces and one .3 fluid ounces) is for a suggested retail price of $19.95, Pocket (.3 fluid ounces) for $5.99 and Go (1 fluid ounce) for $9.99. All sizes come with a 6”x6” W! micro-fiber cloth. WHOOSH is also available for the commercial, industrial, and education markets. 

WHOOSH! Screen Cleaner made its debut at CES 2014 where it became the only screen and device cleaner to be awarded two coveted CES Innovations Design & Engineering Awards.
