For those of you that visited Vinpower’s booth during CES, we thank you and look forward to following up on our discussions. The products that garnered the most attention, were the line of iXflash mobile flash storage products. Not surprisingly, the upcoming iXcharger, which is the first of its kind 65W 1TB charging storage cube, created the greatest buzz. The iXcharger will allow users to replace their charging cubes for their mobile phones, tablets, and most laptops as well as provide 1TB of storage that will work with all 3 platforms, reducing the need for 4 separate items into a single product. Plus, being able to maintain your digital content from all 3 types of mobile devices on a single storage device means that you never have to wonder where you saved that file, picture, movie, etc., as you can load them all to one device with separate folders maintaining the integrity of each set of files.

Additionally, our original iXflash and the latest iXflash Cube also registered a number of positive inquiries, especially since both of these devices are available now. The iXflash is the traveling hard drive with both a USB and Lightning connection for your iOS device (iPhone or iPad). It can back up all your photos and videos, record video without using any of your iOS device’s memory, transfer files between your iOS device and computer, and watch, listen, or work on files stored on the iXflash through your iOS device, including some files that are not natively supported by Apple. Plus the iXflash Cube, is a portable storage device that connects to your iOS devices charging cube and cable to allow the user to charger their iOS device and automatically backup all photos, videos, and contacts at the same time. That way, you always have a backup that you can easily transfer to a computer with a USB connection for safe keeping or easy viewing.

Plus, our line of duplicators, especially the hard drive, USB, and SD duplicators also garnered interest from a number of visitors. Flash is increasingly used across many devices and duplication is the only way to mass produce the content stored on them. Vinpower’s flash and hard drive duplicators make it easy and reliable.

As I have been hinting at for a few months now, Vinpower finally announced our latest addition to our range of storage related products, the iXcharger. Vinpower’s patented iXcharger is a compact 65W 1TB storage power charger, which offers the ability to automatically perform a full backup of all stored photos and videos from an iPhone/iPad as well as act as extended memory for all other mobile smartphones, tablets, and laptop computers while charging at the same time. It is a true groundbreaking product that can act as both an energy efficient power charger and a large capacity backup storage solution for a wide range of mobile devices and laptop computers.

Instead of me gushing over this new product, I’ll just provide a link to the official press release from the developing partner companies that are helping to bring this concept to reality:

For 2022, it has been both a return to business and a transition to a new way of doing business. In the sense, we hope everyone continues to thrive and grow in the New Year. Vinpower would like to thank everyone that helped contribute to our efforts in 2022 and those who have and continue to support us throughout the 20+ years we’ve been in business. Without the support of our customers, vendors, and friends, we would never have achieved the good fortunes we’ve experienced up to this point. Thank you for everything and we wish everyone a joyous and prosperous New Year, in which we will all have good fortunes in 2023.

Reminder, Vinpower will be exhibiting at CES in Las Vegas, NV Jan 5 – 8, 2023 in Central Hall, Booth # 15593. If you’re attending, we hope you visit with us.

Chinese New Year is a major holiday around the world, but especially in China and Taiwan, which both shut down production in factories for prolonged periods so that workers can spend this time with their family. Normally, we’re accustomed to the Chinese New Year taking place in February, but this year, it starts on January 22, 2023. That means if you want anything to start production and/or ship from China and Taiwan before the New Year, you need to have your orders in by the 1st week of January at the latest.

Vinpower is happy to help anyone that needs to place an order for storage related products and is pressed against the deadline. Contact us today to make sure your product isn’t delayed due to the rapidly approaching Chinese New Year holiday.

Ownership of content doesn’t have the same necessity as it did in the past. Now with so many streaming sites for programing, both video and audio, so readily available, why buy the latest album or movie when you can seemingly stream it at a whim? That’s fine, but what happens when you’re in a place where you don’t have access to the internet, which means you don’t have access to those streaming platforms? What are you supposed to do then? How will you entertain yourself? Play cards, read a book (wait no one carries books either), or say not so, engage and talk to the other people you’re with? You could download all that programming onto your iPhone or iPad before you set off on this adventure, but then you’d have no space for all your podcasts and plethora of Apps filling up your memory capacity.

Well, the iXflash allows you to prevent having a meltdown and offers and easy to use alternative to having to go without. Simply load that content onto your iXflash, thus not using your iPhone or iPad’s memory and listen or watch your content anywhere, anytime, with ease!

The below YouTube link will show you how easy it is to stay connected to your content, even when you’re unable to connect to the internet:

I railed about this topic last year and found this year it’s not only appropriate, but even more relevant to refresh everyone’s memory of the importance of owning the actual movies or programs that you enjoy watching frequently or at least seasonally. As I stated before, one tradition we have at our house in December is to watch the animated and stop motion Claymation movies from the 70’s. Movies like A Charlie Brown Christmas, the Christmas Claymation movies from Arthur Rankin, Jr. and Jules Bass, like “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer”, “Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town”, “Jack Frost”, plus so many other popular holiday classics. Previously, these movies were run frequently on regular broadcast over the air TV or “Free TV” throughout the month. However recently, a number of the pay streaming services started acquiring these classics and broadcasting them exclusively for their paid content audience. For instance, Apple TV acquired A Charlie Brown Christmas and now it cannot be shown anywhere except through Apple TV. That means if you don’t subscribe to Apple TV, because it’s too expensive, not enough programming to justify the cost, or you simply have 12 other video streaming platforms you already subscribe to and can’t justify adding another, then you can’t watch this animated holiday classic. This year, it was even worse. We wanted to watch the classic Miser Bros. production of “The Year Without a Santa Claus”, and it was only available as a paid rental through Amazon, which means you have to still pay extra to watch this movie even if you have Amazon Prime.

That’s why, Instead of being at the mercy of the video streaming services, get the classics you enjoy on DVD or Blu-ray so that you can watch them whenever and wherever you want. That’s why keeping and acquiring movies and even music on optical discs is still worthwhile, because you never can tell when something you want to watch or listen to will actually be available on the streaming services you subscribe to when you want them.

One of my colleagues took a trip with his family to England recently. Being an engineer and a good father, he wanted the trip to be both fun and educational, so he went to the London Science Museum with his family. While there, he discovered a lovely exhibit that discussed the inner workings on how a CD works. We may feel like CD technology is old and outdated, but it’s still a modern miracle of science on how a laser is used to read such minute Pits and Lands to hear music, read files, or watch videos. In fact, the below short video highlights just how simple the concept is, but how incredible it is to create.

Whether it’s for your business or your personal needs, we are all storing more an more data on our hard drives. Often times, that stored content is rarely or virtually never looked at, but you don’t want to delete it because it might by important. We call that Cold Data because it’s content that you store but basically don’t use, like food you put in the freezer. You may want it later, but don’t need it right away.

We’ve all become hoarders of digital content because, unlike the food in your freezer, it’s not taking up physical space, so it doesn’t seem to be a burden. But, it is taking up precious digital space and if you don’t address it, eventually you will run out of memory to store new content. So what do you do when you need more memory and you don’t want to delete old content?

The rule of thumb is you just add more memory. You can do that one of 3 ways:

1) Upgrade your hard drive to a larger size or add another hard drive, which is costly and only delays the inevitable storage crunch again in the future

2) Upload your content to the cloud, which costs money and could potentially leave your content vulnerable to hackers

3) Offload the cold data onto optical discs that are inexpensive, compact, and easy to store and access

The best solution for your storage crunch are offloading cold data to optical discs. Optical discs have a long archival life, are easy to retrieve the content, and take up very little physical space, so they can easily be stored virtually anywhere. You may not listen to music on CD’s anymore or watch movies on DVD’s or Blu-ray either, but optical discs are still ideal for storage!

Secure Digital Cards, more formally known as SD and MicroSD Cards, have practically become the universal memory for all small portable electronic devices. SD or MicroSD cards are used in mobile phones, tablets, TV’s, cameras, game consoles, navigation, and so many other devices that require very small compact stable memory. The reason SD and MicroSD Cards are so popular is because they are made of extremely durable and solid material, which prevents most mechanical damage from occurring. They are based on non-volatile memory to ensure the stability of data and it doesn’t require periodic refreshing or prone to failure due to abrupt power outages. That’s why it’s perfect for portable devices or stored in devices that are prone to the elements and turbulent conditions, including many components that used in cars, planes, boats, etc.

We all recognize the value of SD and MicroSD Cards, but what’s the point of this email blast? The key is, unlike optical discs that can be replicated, there’s only 1 way to transfer information onto SD and MicroSD Cards, duplication through a computer or a standalone SD/MicroSD Card duplicator. Even though cameras and cell phones may require empty SD/MicroSD cards that the owners will fill up with photos, videos, music, movies or what not, many of the devices that use SD/MicroSD Cards have content prestored on them. The manufacturers of those products need a quick and easy way to transfer identical content across hundreds, thousands, even millions, of cards accurately and in the shortest time possible.

Vinpower offers a full range of SD duplicators, in sizes from 1 to 3 up to 1 to 127, in a single console that offer slots for both standard SD Cards and MicroSD Cards. Having a dedicated MicroSD slot means you don’t need an adaptor to fit in the standard SD slot, saving time and costs. Vinpower has worked with a variety of entities, from auto manufacturers, to licensed toy manufacturers providing SD duplicators so they can reproduce the SD and MicroSD Cards that make their devices operate. That is the one thing they all have in common, the items they are producing require hundreds of thousands of identically reproduced SD and/or MicroSD Cards that are to be inserted into every device they plan to sell.

If you are developing a program that needs to be copied onto multiple SD or MicroSD Cards, Vinpower’s line of SD Duplicators is the perfect device to make it happen.
