Sunny Days, Sweeping The Cords Away

Better Energy Systems recently announced a neat product that’s being geared toward college students and adventure-types: the Solio Hybrid1000, a solar-powered power source. It combines a solar panel with an integrated lithium-ion battery and can be used with handheld CE devices.

For those not-so-sunny days, the $79-Solio can also be plugged into a USB port.

I like the idea of this product, and I think it will go over well with green-conscious students; however, where I went to school, I would have been using the USB port quite a bit.

Check out more batteries and power sources in the Accessories section of TWICE’s Oct. 8 issue.
