Now I've seen it all

AA batteries that you can plug into a USB slot to recharge. Not a charger for regular rechargeable batteries... batteries which you pull the top off and stick directly into the USB slot.

OK. I am dumb. How is this helpful?

Well, you can recharge your batteries by sticking them into a computer like they were thumb drives; no recharging cradle needed.

But ultimately it's not about "helpful". It's about having the most geeky, non-cost-effective devices. Like a USB-powered beverage chiller. Or a USB-powered Tiki head. Or a USB missile launcher.
