3. Flexible solar panels for green AA batteries

What’s new?



Designed by Wu Jian in China, the Soft Solar battery is a portable device with a built-in soft battery that recharges itself by converting solar energy into electricity. The device uses a very small and flexible solar panel for this purpose. It can be rolled into a very small cylinder and used in the devices that still depend on conventional AA batteries for power.

What difference will it make?



True that the conventional AA batteries have been outplaced by the more advanced lithium-ion batteries. However, there are still many small devices like the TV remote control, traditional watches and old Walkman that depend on AA batteries. These batteries are generally thrown after use but they contain toxic chemicals which pollute the water and soil in our surrounding. However, the new Soft Solar batteries can be effectively used in place of the AA batteries. This will ensure zero-pollution from the traditional AA batteries. Also, it will allow you to travel and go on an expedition without worrying for the batteries of all your advanced small gadgets.


Now that is a really cool post Bill!
