Ray solar charger<\/figcaption><\/figure>We often think of solar power<\/a> panels on rooftops to generate electricity. But the gamut of gadgets that incorporate small-scale solar power is growing rapidly.

\nThinkGeek<\/a> has featured this smart-looking bag featuring a rather large 8 by 12 inch flexible panel that it said can generated 1000mA at 5.6v via a USB cable. An 800mAh Lithium-ion battery stores the energy for later use. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s an ideal solution for those who like outdoors activities and keep it green wherever they go. <\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Quirky<\/a> discovered Ray, a solar powered charger for electronic gadgets. The picture says it all: it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a suction cup that comes with a tilting kickstand that supports multiple positions to maximize exposure to sunlight. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a practical bite-sized little gadget: 2.5\u00e2\u20ac\u00b3 \u00c3\u2014 2.5\u00e2\u20ac\u00b3 \u00c3\u2014 3\u00e2\u20ac\u00b3, subject to change in production.<\/p>\n

Else, Mediagadjets<\/a> has this nifty solar charger for mobile phones and other small-scale electronic devices. It weights a mere 125g and its output voltage is 5.5V.<\/p>\n

Still on the solar power theme, a new study conducted at Queen\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s University<\/a> found that most analysts overestimate the price of solar, thus keeping the public in the dark about its viability. They project a higher cost for solar photovoltaic energy because of their ignorance of the latest technological advancements and price reductions, said Joshua Pearce, an adjunct professor with the Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Older models for determining solar photovoltaic energy costs are too conservative.”<\/p>\n
