the power of solar in a purse
By on August 9th, 2008
Kind of a weird photo, I know, but I get the meaning; it’s organic power in a purse. More specifically, it is a handbag for females that has a special place where you can charge your mobile phone, iPod or camera. Pretty cool. Here is another photo that explains the mechanics:
The man behind the bag, 29 year old mechanical engineering student Joe Hynek said, ‘It begins working every time the user steps outside. People are very excited because it expresses ecological and environmental themes in addition to the function provided of charging your phone and iPod.’
I love the idea. I’d also love to see some more variations. Can we make it happen in a soft bag? Anybody know? In the mean time, I’d like to see one of these in person and next Tuesday is my birthday. Hint, hint. For more information, visit www.solarjo.com.
Thank-you Philip.

I love the idea; even the design is pleasant, considering that was created by a mechanical engineering student! The design creates limited possibilities for wearing it, and I think is too thick for an evening purse. An accessories designer needs to be asked to be part of the team on the next step!
