I was doing some research into solar chargers at work today and came across this do-it-yourself video. Now, I admit to not being the most tech savvy guy out there, but constructing a solar-powered charger that I can use to charge up my mobile phone or MP3 player, is something I would have considered out of my league before seeing this video.
Have a look. I’m going to try it out myself and will let you know if I have any success. I’d love to hear if anyone else has tried this, and how they got on.
