Need another gift idea? A solar backpack or messenger bag might do the trick. Not only can you carry your stuff, but also charge your cell phone, camera, or MP3 player on the go. Voltaic Systems makes bags that include three, waterproof and tough solar photovoltaic panels embedded on the lid of the bag which can capture 4-watts of power from the sun. That should keep your portable device charged. Voltaic Systems products include a battery pack to store any excess energy your bag’s panel may generate.
Eclipse Solar Gear also offers a selection of solar-charging bags for our active lifestyles. In addition to backpacks, Eclipse offers messenger bags, bicycle paniers, fish tackle bags, and soft coolers. Juice Bags by Reware are another cool option. Juice Bags come in a variety of messenger bag and backpack styles. These bags trickle-charge your gear via a cigarette lighter adapter. All the products are weather-resistant and capture the sun’s rays even on cloudy days.
May as well try to keep the planet cool no matter where you go or what you do. . .
