Are you looking for a eco-friendly and modern convenient alternative to charging your cell phone, camera, or laptop. I introduce you the first flexible solar panel, called SolarRoll. It is perfect, all you need is a little sunlight, and you can absolutely easily charge laptops, cellphones, cameras and even car batteries.
The SolarRoll is a 58-inch long roll-up waterproof solar panel that can be used to power anything from satellite phones to video cameras to GPS devices. It’s really reliable, because the famed mountaineer Ed Viesturs took it with him as he was climbing the Annapurna summit in the Himalayas.
This amazing useful gadget coasts between $199 and $499, depending of the model. Don’t worry about getting it wet- I mentioned it’s waterproof soul mate.

In order to promote impartiality in your review, we will send you the device as a limited three-month loan. You may use Solio for any of your device-charging needs during this period. At the end of the three months, we ask that you return the product to us at our expense. If you find that you have fallen in love with Solio, you may purchase the product at a 50 percent discount.

Solio can store this energy within its internal battery for up to a year, and can be used any time for on-the-go charging of most portable electronics devices. Solio can charge multiple gadgets, including mobile phones, Bluetooth headsets, PDAs, MP3 players, handheld gaming systems, digital cameras, GPS devices and more.
