Charlotte, NC—Life Clips, Inc. (LCLP), a brand of products designed to change the way people capture, manage and share life’s moments, closed on a private financing transaction for $700,000. The transaction gives the company the necessary capital to finalize its acquisition of Batteryfly Energy, Ltd., and its mobeego product line. The financing comes just days after Life Clips filed an 8K announcing a private financing of $300,000 from another shareholder.
The capital raised by Life Clips will be used to close the Batteryfly acquisition as well as to fulfill inventory to meet retail and distribution demand for mobeego products. mobeego is an affordable, single-use, cordless battery that provides an instant shot of power to a smartphone. In addition, mobeego for action cameras consists of a disposable mobeego battery can and reusable micro/mini USB adapters that fit most action cameras in the market.
“This financing, by affiliates of our existing shareholders, allows us to move forward to close on our much anticipated Batteryfly acquisition,” said Bob Gruder Life Clips’ CEO. “I believe this is a great testament to the faith our existing, private investors have in the direction of Life Clips and the products the company is bringing to market. I appreciate their eagerness to keep investments within its group and am excited to have support by similarly long-term minded individuals.
“I think the mobeego battery will be great for anyone that needs a quick power supply to their phone or action camera,” continued Gruder. “Individuals can keep them on hand as they have a 10-year shelf life and do not require any pre-charge. . . . mobeego is a global tech gadget and excellent addition to our pipeline that complements our SoloVu 4K action camera perfectly.”
