Mini solar panel phone charm keeps your mobile charged whilst you gossip

This is a brilliant idea, and so much simpler than carting about a portable solar-charger. Sadly it’s only available in Japan though, meaning the rest of the world will have to continue guzzling electricity when charging our mobiles. What’s up Strap-Ya? Help out the rest of the world, won’t you?

Just charging the mini solar panel by sunlight can provide enough power to keep your mobile running until you get home to charge it up, and even on gloomy days it can still be used as a backup battery if you charge it using your normal phone charger.
