Walt Disney World Adds FuelRod Locations to Select Resorts

Disney has been adding FuelRod kiosks around Walt Disney World within the parks and Disney Springs.  The FuelRod devices are portable batteries that can charge mobile and other electronic devices.  The portable batteries can be swapped out as needed at the locations so that guest always have fresh power.  This is such a huge help to guests all over the resort, especially given how dependent we all are on our cell phones and tablets these days!  We are excited to learn that there are now new kiosk locations at several of the resorts.  Here is where you will find the newest FuelRod locations:

• Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge
• Disney’s Art of Animation Resort
• Disney’s Boardwalk Inn
• Disney’s Contemporary Resort
• Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
• Disney’s Pop Century Resort  (this one isn’t open yet, but coming later in June)
• Disney’s Port Orleans French Quarter
• Disney’s Port Orleans Riverside

If you want to use the FuelRod system while you are at Walt Disney World, you can pay $30 and get a fully charged batter and 3 different charging cables.  The included charging cables are:  1 for Android phones, 1 for Apple phones that are for generations 4 and under and 1 for Apple phone that are for generations 5 and up.  When you need a new battery, you can either recharge it yourself or you can exchange it one of the kiosks for a freshly charged battery.  This helps prevent the risk of guests running out of battery power while they are out and about in the parks.

What do you all think of the FuelRod charging system?  Who uses this when they are in the parks?
