The countdown is almost over… It’s the gift-giving season, and I’m here to give some gadget options for those on your gift list (even yourself). This series will last through the holidays.
Day 1: Plug Your Mobile Gadgets into the Sun
If you’re on the road for work or an outdoor enthusiast, the batteries on your mobile devices are probably often in the red zone. Fortunately, there is a plug-in in the great outdoors… it’s called the sun.
The Solio Bolt Solar Charger & Battery Backup can be charged via a regular electrical outlet or by using the built-in small solar panels, which include a sundial feature that follows the sun. It can be used to charge all USB-gadgets, including iPads, iPhones and other tablets and smartphones.
