Survival Kit Charges Your Gear with Solar-Powered Naffness

The designers of this naff gadget followed an interesting recipe: take one 3800mAh rechargeable battery, a solar cell, digital watch, analog thermometer, compass and LED torch light and jam them haphazardly into the nearest scratchy plastic box. Add in 12 connectors for mobile phones and USB gadgets, and serve up for around $33. Yuckity-yuck yuck. Ok, we know: we'll be laughing on the other side of our faces when this actually saves someone's life. [Technabob]
