As Summer comes, how useful is a Solar-Powered Bikini?

     When you're at the beach and you forgot to charge your MP3 or phone, what do you do? Do you wait in the car charging up your device while your friends are having fun in the sun? If so, this may come in handy: a solar-powered bikini!
      Invented by a Brooklyn-based designer, Andrew Schneider, this invention is able to power up your electronic devices but is able to be completely safe to wear in the water. Not only that but Schneider is actually accepting custom orders for the bikinis as well.

Schneider spends about 80 hours on each bikini, hand-stitching super-slim flexible photovoltaic film strips together using conductive thread

The swimsuit also comes with a USB connector that you can plug into your phone or mp3 to power up your device using the sun's rays
