Charge Your iPod With The Sun
Go solar and use the sun to re-power your portable electronics with the Solio H1000 from Better Energy. The highly efficient solar cells generate power from natural sunlight, charging an internal battery that can then be used to charge and use your mobile devices when far from home and an outlet.
Solio which won the prestigious 'Best of Show' Award at its launch in the 2005 MacWorld Expo, has been a resounding success around the world and has enabled Better Energy to demonstrate that efficient, well-designed and environmentally aware products can be a commercial success.
