Who knew that the applications of the solar energy could be so trendy and smart? Adam Robinson has designed a solar cell which is of the size of a pebble, but as they say, looks are deceptive, this pebble-sized solar cell has a lamp and can supply sufficient power to charge your cell phone.
A piece truly made for people on-the-go, this portable solar cell can be strapped around your wrist and can charge your iPod while you are getting yourself that glowing tan on the beach. One of the main reasons why the domestic use of solar cells has not thrived is, people still think that they are bulky and difficult to handle, but Adam Robinson has provided us with just another reason to try them out!
This solar powered lamp has been made by taking the people of Africa into consideration, as the country invariably suffers form a power crisis. The LED Solar Pebble has a solar panel which allows the light rays to directly hit the solar cells, these lamps will be manufactured by Plus Minus Solar. So, the next time you go outdoors for an adventure sport do not forget to take some of these pebbles!
