8 Solar-Powered Mobile Chargers!

Whether you're waiting at a bus stop or on a bus, you look down at your phone and it's flickering that familiar light indicating low battery. What to do next? Well, one option can be to buy yourself a "Snow Lizard SLXtreme Case," though the price may be a bit steep.

This case is a rugged, waterproof, solar-charging case for the iPhone 4, 4S, and 5. It was originally a Kickstarter project that had received more than twice its funding goal.

Price : $129.99


Fancy yourself an altoid when your breath stinks or just out of habit? Maybe you'd also be interested in this charger for a change.


Featuring the Altoids Solar USB Charger, this nifty DIY charger is available as a set from Brown Dog Gadgets. This runs on AA batteries and it will also power up any of your USB gadgets.

Price : $34.99


Not all solar panels come in large sizes like a rooftop; it may also come in small packages such as the latest developed "Gomadic Sunvolt."


This charger is a thin yet amply sized solar panel that, even on a cloudy day, can quickly charge multiple electronic devices as if charged by a wall outlet. The SunVolt also comes with a custom-designed carrying case that looks similar to a compact laptop case.

Price : $99.95
(SunVolt MAX is $129.95)


If you're working at the office and you forgot your charger at home and your coworkers don't seem to have one in handy for you, this may come in handy: "XD Design Solar Window Charger"


This XD Design Solar Window Charger is sleek and easily mounts to your window with reusable silicon paper. It can also charge any USB device.

Price : Approximately $65


If you just moved in a new place and you're thinking of possibly getting some artwork or decor to decorate your home and make it feel like your "home sweet home" to relax to after a stressing day at work, then maybe this will perk your interest.


This bonsai-inspired sculpture is pricey but if you're willing to spend some extra bucks on decorating your home, it's not too out of the question. Vivien Muller's Electree will charge your USB device before your guests can stop talking about it.

Price : $450


There also is another handy charger made for those iPhone lovers: WakaWaka Power Compact Solar Charger!


After a day in the sun, the WakaWaka compact charger can fully charge your phone. There also is a perk -- for every charger you purchase, WakaWaka gives one of those in need (and it manufactures parts in Haiti, which is still reeling from natural disasters).

Price : $79


Are you looking for that one extra piece to make your living room look spectacular? With the Solio CLASSIC2, it can also come in handy for designing your room to give it a retro look.



If the award-winning design of Solio CLASSIC2 doesn't reel you in, maybe some specs will: When fully charged, the CLASSIC2 can recharge the average phone up to 2 times (approximately 15 hours of music).

Price : $100

Real sunflowers use the sun to thrive so why not use some digital photosynthesis for your smartphone?

Featuring the XD Design Solar Sunflower, it can charge both USB and mini USB devices.
