Solar Radio only $50 at Gaiam

Another great Christmas Gift for campers and hikers. I don’t really fall into either of those categories, but I have one of these in the house for whenever we have a power outage, which is a pretty common occurence in the Pacific Northwest. This radio can be charged via a built-in solar panel, hand crank or (if you’ve got power) AC adapter, which makes it extremely versatile. Only 30 seconds of cranking powers the internal NiMH battery for 35 minutes of AM and FM broadcasts and it runs 25 hours on a full charge. A couple other nice features are the LED charge indicator, an LED flashlight and an earphone socket.

Green Christmas Gift Idea #1: Solio Hybrid 1000

This solar charger for cell phones and MP3 Players is great for hikers and anyone who likes to camp. It takes a long time to charge up the internal battery using sunlight (about 10-12 hours of direct sunlight), but once it’s charged it can then fully charge a cell phone. If you don’t have any sunlight (a common occurrence here in the Pacific Northwest) you can charge the battery via the USB port on your computer. The Solio will connect to any phone that can be charged via USB plus Nokia phones.
