Solar-powered charger for PSP, DS, iPod, mobile phones
Wanna go green and be environmentally-friendly? Digital World Tokyo has posted about the Solar-fine 1350 from Japanese company Links International, a gadget that could be just the piece of technology that you’re looking for.
Judging from the images and what we can understand from the Solar-fine 1350’s product page, this device turns solar energy into electricity in order to charge up the batteries of various handheld gadgets. It has a capacity of 1350mAh and a voltage of 3.7V and can be connected to a variety of handheld gaming devices, mobile phones, and portable media players.
Now, solar-powered devices are cool and all, but the problem always lies in getting enough sun at the right time. As some user have noted, the PSP screen doesn’t handle exposure to direct sunlight too well, so if you wanna hook this up to your PSP you might have to find a nearby window so you can charge it up without being out under the sun yourself.
The Solar-fine 1350 takes a bit of a while — around ten hours — to charge. If you simply can’t wait that long or if there’s no sun, there’s also a handy option to charge it via AC or USB. It carries a price tag of 7,980 Yen (US$ 66) and comes bundled with a variety of connectors for the devices that it supports.
