StrapYa - mini cell phone solar charger

strapya.jpg

As solar chargers get smaller and more efficient, electronics and gadgets are tapping into that big power supply in the sky, the sun. I’m skeptical about how practical this little particular baby is and it may be another example of the Japanese obsession with superfluous cell phone accessories, but it’s an interesting idea.

This back-up battery can be used on the wrist or as a keychain. Charges in 6 hours of sunlight or 3 hours if plugged-in to an AC outlet. No info on compatibility.
May be available in Japan this week though I didn’t find it on the StrapYa website.
