SAN DIEGO, July 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — FuelRod, the leader in swappable power on the go, today announced the expansion of its nationwide network with new installations at the USS Midway Museum and Balboa Park, bringing convenient access to portable power to two of San Diego’s most iconic visitor destinations.

As mobile devices have become an essential part of the visitor experience, guests increasingly rely on their phones for tickets, navigation, photography, communication, rideshare services, and social sharing. FuelRod’s growing presence throughout San Diego helps ensure visitors stay connected without interrupting their day searching for outlets or returning to their vehicles to recharge.

“San Diego is home to some of the country’s most visited attractions, and today’s guests rely on their mobile devices throughout their experience,” said Joe Yeagley, Chief Operating Officer of FuelRod. “We’re excited to expand the FuelRod Service across San Diego and help visitors stay connected while they explore everything these iconic destinations have to offer.”

Together, the USS Midway Museum and Balboa Park welcome millions of visitors annually and represent two of Southern California’s most recognizable destinations. Whether exploring a historic aircraft carrier, visiting world-class museums, or spending the day enjoying gardens, performances, and cultural attractions, guests increasingly rely on their mobile devices throughout the experience.

The new FuelRod installations support a growing need for convenient access to power at destinations where visitors often spend an entire day immersed in the experience.

Visitors now have access to FuelRod’s latest generation of charging solutions through its Gen. 2 kiosks, including:

The FuelRod USB-C Kit, featuring 20% more power than the original FuelRod, delivered fully charged with included cables and adapters

The FuelRod MAX10, a 10,000mAh portable charger featuring wireless charging, MagSafe compatibility, dual USB-C ports, and included charging accessories
