Thanks to advancements in technology (and China), most of us have lots of gadgets and carry quite a few of them with us at any given time; smart phones, cameras, tablets, e-readers etc. Gadgets have become very affordable but that affordability comes at a price, cheap parts like the batteries which means short battery life between charges. You can’t be expected to start plugging in all your gadgets into the wall when you get to class or are at a coffee shop but you could make use of the Piggyback Solar Powered Gadgetbag.
The Piggyback Gadgetbag comes with an 8” x 12” super-efficient flexible solar panel on the back to soak up the sun’s free energy and turn it into electricity to charge your gadgets that you are carrying inside your backpack. The solar panel is capable of providing up to 1,000mA at 5.6v in full sun and sends the electricity into your backpack via a USB connected cable. If you’re not charging up your gadgets, don’t worry, the electricity doesn’t go to waste because there is an 800mAh Lithium Ion battery to soak up the electricity for later use.
As an added feature, this backpack “piggybacks” onto other bags so you can still use your favorite backpack in conjunction with the Piggyback Solar Powered Gadgetbag to carry all your books and gadgets.
