Today’s consumer electronics devices are more power-hungry than ever. A dead battery means important missed calls and emails, no GPS when you’re lost, no e-reader on your train ride, no communication in an emergency, and an overall feeling of dread and anxiety. Lilliputian has the cure, nectar™- the world’s first truly portable power device that will power all of your CE devices for up to a month with a single power pod.
nectar™ is the world’s first truly portable power system. After inserting a pod, any USB 2.0 compatible CE device can have 2 weeks to a month of mobile power. Unlike other back-up batteries or recharging devices, nectar does not need to ever be plugged in to a wall outlet.

This game-changing product has the capacity to power/recharge CE devices for several weeks on a single Power Pod without the need for traditional wall outlets. To the consumer, it is like having a wall outlet in their pocket. The Power Pods are safe, easy-to-use, inexpensive and recyclable. The extended run-time and “instant recharge” features of the nectar™ provides long-lasting power for CE devices users, and its ability to work with multiple devices reduces the need for consumers to carry multiple cables and power adapters. nectar has been engineered to be environmentally friendly – six times more efficient than a traditional charger that is plugged into a wall outlet. Equivalently stated, the nectar can cut the consumers’ carbon footprint by 83% when charging their CE devices. The product has been approved for international shipping, and for carry-on and use aboard aircraft by the UN International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the U.S. Department of Transportation.
Simply put, the nectar offers a superior, convenient solution to the myriad of CE power challenges faced by today’s user. Future products include additional Mobile Power Systems as well as integrated OEM solutions for powering a wide range of CE devices.

Though you may think there are tiny magical elves turning cogs and running on exercise wheels to power this revolutionary device, the core technology is something completely different but just as imaginative. Lilliputian Systems has developed a revolutionary miniature solution that offers significant performance advantages over lithium batteries and all other available technologies.
Built on Lilliputian’s highly differentiated and proprietary Silicon
Lilliputian Systems, Inc. was founded by former researchers of the world renowned Massachusetts Institute of Technology ("MIT") Microsystems Technology Laboratory ("MTL"). The Company, headquartered in Wilmington, Massachusetts, secured exclusive licenses from MIT and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratories for certain aspects of the technology and has raised over $100 million in venture capital financing to commercialize its core technology, the Silicon Power Cell™
Using this technology, Lilliputian has developed the world's first Personal Power™ solution for Consumer Electronics (CE) devices, a revolutionary and disruptive family of products targeted at the $50B portable power market. Lilliputian's award-winning breakthrough solution, nectar™, delivers the only viable small form-factor battery replacement that provides the enormous run-time improvements demanded by today's CE devices. Lilliputian's technolgy both complements today's devices and can seamlessly integrate into future devices – all while ensuring the consumer enjoys an essentially infinite supply of Personal Power™ for their CE devices.
In 2012, Lilliputian announced Brookstone as its first retail partner for nectar™. Brookstone will market, distribute and sell the product through their various distribution channels such as catalog, Brookstone.com, and retail stores including airport and mall locations.
