JAKARTA - Some time ago, PT Jalan Continues Only (ReCharge), the first application-based power bank rental service provider in Indonesia, announced the #ReChargeHarimu campaign.
In a press conference held on Wednesday, August 10, CEO of ReCharge Indonesia, Dick Listijono, also revealed the installation of ReCharge Stations (machines for renting power banks) in public transportation areas, namely at 35 TransJakarta Bus Stops, 23 KRL Stations on the Jakarta Kota - Bogor line, and 13 MRT Jakarta Stations.
Dick said that the idea for the campaign this time was based on ReCharge's own vision, which wants to make it easier for people when they are outside their homes and don't bring their chargers with them.
"We want the user to leave the house anytime, they have access to a charger like ReCharge, so their activities on that day are not disturbed," said Dick to the media crew.
Like most chargers that are in demand today, the ReCharge power bank is equipped with Fast Charging technology for faster charging of cellphone batteries.
In terms of size, the ReCharge power bank measures 135 x 76 x 16 mm and is light in weight so that it is ergonomic enough to be carried by customers.
ReCharge Station is indeed placed in a public place, so indeed it raises some unexpected risk scenarios, such as chargers that are not returned or taken home, and so on.
Dick also couldn't deny this, but the company turned out to have its own way of dealing with the bad experience. According to Dick, the company could not prevent that. However, the company can minimize this.
"So, users must register first before renting, now one account is only for one powerbank. So if they don't return it, they can't rent it again," he explained.
In addition, the ReCharge power bank is designed so that its power can only be charged at the ReCharge Station so as to prevent damage if it is charged with a different electrical power. In addition, the ReCharge power bank does not have a cable to connect to a power outlet, so that the system can only be charged at the ReCharge Station machine.
Easy, Practical, and Environmentally Friendly
A power bank rental model such as ReCharge is a practical and more environmentally friendly way because it does not cause a lot of e-waste or electronic waste.
"If there is no power bank charged, the volts are the same as TV, normal. A small machine, in one month only consumes 4kWh. Compared to plugging the device in an outlet continuously, it will consume more volts. Power consumption, it's much less and much more stable," said Dick.
Also, what's interesting about the ReCharge service is the power bank rental facility in various scattered locations. Thus, power bank returns can be made at a different ReCharge Station location.
