Solar Powered Bluetooth Headset

TreeHugger makes an interesting point about this gadget – it seems that solar cells are being placed on everything these days. While I’m not sure how well the solar cell would charge considering you’re likely to be using in a car – where light might not reach – I totally promote the idea of a solar cell on everything, why not? Even if they won’t meet all our charging needs, every little bit counts, and when your out in the middle of nowhere and need to charge your device, it can be a lifesaver.

In any case – this is the SolarVoice 908. Should the solar cell provide the device with all the power it needs, I think it’s brilliant. The headset I have now sits in my car, almost permanently. While it rarely needs charging, it’s a huge pain to bring it inside to charge – then forget it and not have it when I’m driving around. The solar cell would eliminate this providing it with unlimited free power. Again, mostly it would be used inside a car which most likely wouldn’t have direct sun, but we’ll see.

The SolarVoice can be purchased at Amazon for $66.15
