GP Solar Charger

GREENIES rejoice. Instead of plugging the 175g unit into the electrical socket, just face it towards the sun to charge your batteries. Voila! No carbon footprint.
Made of two thin film solar panels, it's protected in a weather-resistant coat.
It comes with two GP ReCyko+ AA Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries that can be reused for up to 1,000 times. So, that's less trash too. Be prepared to wait longer for the charging, though - it takes six hours to charge two AA batteries.
