This is a great idea for everyone with a cellphone, and who doesn't have a cellphone right?Instead of carrying around a solar panel to recharge your cellphone, what better way than have a holster with the solar recharger embedded into it.
The Universal Charging Holster created by Genesis will be designed for 3G phones from LG, Motorola, Samsung, Nokia, Siemens as well as a couple of others. They also come with sheaths, which are meant for the design conscious people.
More info available on the product page.

Just another lamp you might think? Not at all, this is the Snake Light. This solar powered light is very flexible with its twistable neck. It can be angled down for just about any task and also hung from ceilings, walls or other objects for precise spot lighting.
Of course you could wear this LED snake around your neck or hand like a flashlight. Because it's solar powered, you don't need to carry extra batteries with you. It's perfect for any kind of job, providing you charged it by putting it in the sunlight.
Price between $8 and $20, more info available here.

When we first heard about this, we tought of it as a great gadget for people who tend to come home drunk and can't seem to enter their own house.
But don't you hate coming home in the middle of the night, only to be searching for the hole in your front door, desperately trying to push your key in the keyhole?
That is about to happen no more! We present to you: the Solar Keyhole light. The name is simple and so is the idea behind it; during the day this gadget charges its battery by using sunlight.
At night, you simply press a button (how are you suppose to find it if you can't find your keyhole) and the light will stay on for 10 seconds. Which should be enough time for you to get safely inside.
Available for $23 here.

It's almost summer, people spend more time outside and also tend to stay outside in the evening, when it's dark.We don't want you to get lost in the dark, so we present to you a floating globe which will bring light in the darkness.
This globe floats in your pond or pool and gives enough light to take a midnight swim.
Don't worry about being electrocuted, the globe is well protected and uses a small battery which is charged during the day (solar power).
Also, there is no need for you to get in the water every night to turn on the light, the built-in light sensor detects when it's dark and turns on the light inside the globe.
It does look nice in a pool, but we wonder if fish won't be annoyed with this when you put it in a pond full of expensive fish.
Either way, it's a nice gadget to have and we highly recommend this!
Available for $22 over at SmartHome

This is not something you can't buy (at least, we don't think so). It's a DYI solution for the (short) battery life of the iPod.Follow the instructions on the page (link below), to build your own solar charger for the iPod.
If you have the right tools, it shouldn't be that hard to build one.
