This makes it a great tool to have when traveling, especially when you are in the great outdoors. What's more, you can use it as a regular battery charger even without sun and wind simply by plugging it into the wall socket through an AC adapter.
The Taipei-based company that makes it is called Miniwiz. The devices costs US$50 and can be purchased online.
About the author
Editor John Chan's love for gadgets can be traced back to the days when he disassembled his toys and couldn't put them back together again. He practices great restraint in not opening up every review product that comes through the CNET Asia Labs, and before that, in his previous job at HardwareZone. He has reviewed items big and small, from mobile phones to projectors and feels everyone should carry a multitool at all times in case of MacGyver situations.
