Solio Universal Hybrid Charger
Sole Solar Power

by KEN BROWNE

How many times have you been out in the field or on vacation when your electronic device battery dies unexpectedly and you are not near any means of charging it?
With a full charge, the Solio will re-power your devices up to two full recharges.

HERE COMES the Solio Universal Hybrid Charger to the rescue. It uses the solar power to charge your device and get it back up and running. The Solio comes with four adapters to accommodate several of the top selling cell phones manufacturers as well as a mini USB adapter for an iPod or similar device.

The list of devices that the Solio can service is truly impressive. This hybrid charges itself via the sun or a wall socket. Remarkably, the internal rechargeable battery will hold this charge for up to a year. With a full charge, the Solio will re-power your devices up to two full recharges. Then simply place it in the sunlight or plug it into a wall socket and you’re good to go again. Its compact, lightweight design makes it easy to pack in your gear bag until it’s needed.
