Soldius Solar iPod Charger

By Fabienne Serriere

The Soldius charger, which we first heard of on Engadget back in June, is finally available for purchase. They are selling several different models of diminutive solar panels with adapters:

  • An iPod charger for $99.99 compatible with iPod, iPod nano, iPod Mini, iPod Shuffle and Blackberry products. Available in white.
  • An iPod and cellphone charger for $109.99 compatible with all the iPods listed above and Nokia, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, Siemens, Motorola, and Blackberry model cellphones. Available in white.

Full charge for a cellphone is listed on their site's FAQ as taking from 3 to 4 hours. We're not sure if that spec is valid for iPods as well, but we're guessing about 4 hours minimum to recharge a full sized iPod. Oh and can we please just start integrating solar panels into everything? Please? Pretty please?
