Brando say the USB Solar Charging 4-Port Hub (catchy name I think you will agree) can be used either as a traditional USB hub, or as an eco-friendly charger - using the sun's rays to keep your gadgets going.

The lightweight 54 gram device comes with six mobile phone connectors and houses a built-in battery meaning you don't have to have all your tech attached while it's soaking up the sun. It can also be charged by an AC power supply should the clouds be out or you just want to stick it to the environment. [Brando]
