About 2 in 1 Cathaoir Uilleach Ilfheidhmeach

Cathaoir uilleach is ea 2 in 1 le stóráil chomhtháite agus rochtain chumhachta, deartha don obair agus don scíth. Cuireann an chathaoir uilleach suíochán agus dromchla stórála le chéile in aon phíosa amháin, mar sin fanann leabhair agus gléasanna faoi lámh. Tá poirt chumhachta ar fáil mar asraonta caighdeánacha nó i gcomhcheangal le USB. Is féidir an dromchla stórála leathan a chur ar chlé nó ar dheis. Cruthaíonn lámha arda adhmaid teorainn amhairc a thacaíonn le príobháideachas agus le fócas. Tá an struchtúr déanta as dair sholadach le fráma cruach brataithe púdair agus cumhdach de pholaiéistear athchúrsáilte.
