At the same time Sanyo trotted out little Eneloopy, the battery tester doggie, it also introduced two other products associated with its Eneloop rechargeable batteries introduced last year.

The Eneloop solar charger recharges four AA-sized batteries, and the kicker is there's a USB port on the back that will also let you charge up your iPod, cellphone or PDA at the same time. Whoa! Great idea.

Sanyo also rolled out Eneloop Kairo, a rechargeable heater that uses the Eneloop technology. The palm-sized device might be just about right for keeping those hands toasty warm during the upcoming winter months. More pics of both products, after the jump.
