How can I order the iBackPack™?
You can order right here on the Indiegogo page. People who back the project on Indiegogo get to have the very first iBackPacks and save a bunch on the future retail prices. Just click on the "Back this Project" button on the right hand side of the campaign page.
Can I purchase the iBackPack™ in retail stores?
We are hopeful that the iBackPack will be wildly successful with our Indiegogo launch - and hence enhance the chances of large retailers such as Wal-Mart, Sears, JP Penneys, Toys-R-Us and others taking notice. Our plan is to have the iBackPack become a staple product in all major retailers in 2016 at a different price.
Can I order more than one?
You can definitely pre-order as many iBackPacks as you'd like - the more the better!
Just increase your pledge by $165 ($150 + US shipping) or by $265 (for international) for each extra unit. So $330 for 2, $495 for 3, etc. Shipping will double because we have to send each unit separately.
You'll also have a chance to enter different addresses at the end of the campaign for each iBackPack. You can also look at our bulk option for 10 iBackPack's in one order. Get all your friends on-board for some pretty good savings!
Why is international shipping so expensive?
We're working with a full-scale logistics and distribution team to make our international deliveries as effective as possible. The total price of $265 will still get you an iBackPack for less than the eventual retail price and should let us ship to anyone, anywhere.
How long will the battery last?
The battery charging capabilities depend on how many iPhone, iPad devices you charge before recharging the primary battery.
The bluetooth speaker is removable, and with the self-contained battery has +1400 Mah rating good for around 8 hours per charge. It charges separately.
The LED and USB draw very little power, and with our smart(er) circuitry, you will be able to charge all day if needed without an issue.
Does the iBackPack charge all cell phones?
Yes, any cell phone or device that utilizes a 5V USB port can be charged.
How much does the iBackPack weigh?
Total weight for the iBackPack, including all parts is less than five pounds.
When are iBackPacks expected to ship?
We expect it will take us six months from the time the Indiegogo program ends until we are able to complete all shipments. The first group should be leaving our shipping docks within ninety days.
Where are the iBackPacks assembled?
Austin, Texas.
How much money are you expecting to raise?
Our minimum goal is $50k but we hope there will be much more
excitement and consequently more active participants. We are hopeful to be one of the most successful Indiegogo programs in their history - but . . . realize that a great percentage of those on Indiegogo feel the same way due to their belief in their product.
