Power up with wind and sun

by Sherry on September 10th, 2008

Imagine going on a biking vacation, perhaps biking around Europe. Then imagine using a mini generator that harnesses that wind power to keep your mp3 player going? Or to charge up your camera’s battery so you can be sure of getting some stellar pictures when you stop? Maybe you want to use your cellphone to make dinner reservations - and you can keep that powered up too.

All you need is the HYmini Portable Power Generator from ThinkGeek.com and you’re set. It can grab wind power or solar power. And then when the sun goes down and you’re tucked into bed in your hotel at night, you can just plug it in to the wall and keep on charging!

You know you can’t leave home without your iPod, cell phone, and digital camera, so if you’re going to be on the move anyway, why not power them up on the go?
