Mobile products designed to be used by heavy-handed students. Components are modular and replaceable, to extend the life of your power investment and meet campus sustainability goals.
Why Higher Ed Institutions Choose Animate
True campus-wide mobility
Students can charge throughout libraries, lounges, student centers, outdoor courtyards, and back again — no plug sockets required.
Cut infrastructure costs
Eliminate the need for expensive power installs and wiring across your estate. No core drilling. No electricians. No downtime.
Safe & compliant
UL-certified and purpose-built for public environments. Units include safety monitoring to automatically shut down in unsafe unconditions.
Sustainable power
Rechargeable lithium-ion
technology proven to last
8.3+ years* with daily use. Cut waste and support your institution’s sustainability goals.
Replaceable (budget-saving!) modules
Damaged battery case or USB unit? No problem. Replace only the damaged component and keep the rest, saving waste AND your budget.
Easily rearranged spaces
Switch up a space from a classroom one minute to group study lounge the next. When you repurpose a space, Animate flexes to the new demands without adding infrastructure.
* In-house tested to over 1,500 full charge cycles, with battery capacity diminishing to only 88.6%.
With daily charging every day of a school year (180 days), 1,500 charge cycles would take 8.3 years.
NOTE: Our testing is still ongoing! Extrapolating our test data, it’s predicted to reach approx. 2,700 charge cycles (15 years) before the battery drops to 70% capacity.
