FreeLoader Solar Charger Rocks

FreeLoader is a great company for cool gizmos and gadgets that come in handy and save you some money. Their new solar charger which they have just unveiled is the latest in a long line of such products. It’s small, slim and handheld, as you can see in the picture above.

It consists of two solar panels and a lithium battery. It can charge the average iPod in just eight hours which isn’t too bad considering you could just leave it on your window sill.
