Disney to Charge for Swapping Portable Chargers

Disney to Charge for Swapping Portable Chargers

Throughout the Disneyland and Walt Disney World Resorts guests have been swapping out portable chargers for free after purchasing them at kiosks for $30. This is all about to change. Starting on November 1st, there will be a $3 charge to swap out fuel rods. New signage was added to the fuel rod kiosks throughout both Resorts overnight that indicated the upcoming price change.

The fuel rods first came to Walt Disney World in 2016 and then later Disneyland. They soon became popular with guests who find more battery usage for phones and devices. This is partially due to people’s Disney experiences relying more and more on apps, phone cameras, and also social media.
