The mobile phone with a battery that lasts 15 years

The affordable mobile that runs on a single, AA battery and is built as a 'spare' phone for emergencies - it can even call emergency services without a SIM card.

Designed as a back-up phone you can carry without worrying if it’s charged or not, the SpareOne is built to leave in the car for emergencies, or to pack in travel luggage – especially if you or your loved ones plan to go off the beaten track (or off-piste).
The simple numerical keypad is also ideal for older users who might only use a phone occasionally.

The new version, SpareOne Plus, has a GPS tracker which allows the user to be tracked by emergency services - and can display its location on a paired iPhone app. The Spare One can be pre-programmed for instant access to phone numbers of key contacts, including the relevant emergency services in any location.
That single battery offers a talk time of up to 10 hours.
The phone’s developer, XPAL Power, says: “it’s essentially designed to make and receive the most important calls, no matter what”.
It even comes with the AA battery included.
