Ralph Lauren’s solar-panel backpack charges your phone in hours, your bank card in seconds

We here at Engadget are in favor of hitting the books every now and then, but we will be able to’t have lame gadget-less backpacks hurting our true techie rep. That’s why we’re excited to determine Ralph Lauren outing its first solar equipped knapsack as a part of its RLX sports line. Four solar cells around back harness the sun’s power to generate 3.45 watts — completely juicing up an iPhone in a purported two-to-three hours, assuming you’ve got “proper sunlight orientation,” obviously. Just like the optional orange hue (it also is available in black), the sun-sucking cells aren’t particularly low profile — but for $800 don’t you would like something, uh, recognizable? Still, in the event you simply should be that guy make sure you hit the source link and don’t look back, but for everybody else, might we propose a portable USB charger for rather less coin?

    The 1st one may only amount to a MiFi housed within the dash (although that does come standard), but automaker Proton and Malaysian carrier Yes appear to have some fairly grand designs on 4G-connected cars. As well as providing a WiFi hotpot for passengers, they eventually hope to exploit the 4G connectivity for a number of automotive-related applications, including vehicle… »
