XD Design based in The Netherlands designed this handy window mounted solar charger compatible with any USB charger.

XD Design has three goals clearly stated on their homepage. “Make it surprising. Make it different. Make it memorable.” Their design philosophy “Surprisingly Smart” has objectives that should be obvious. They believe that design “is not about adding features. It is about elegant solutions that eliminate unnecessary complexity, that need no lengthy explanation and that are subtle by nature.”

Which brings us to the Solar Charger featured up top. The charger features a 1400mAh rechargeable lithium battery and a mini USB cable. It measures 11 centimeters by 11 centimeters and is easily applied to any window so you can capture the sun whatever time of day it may be. You can get the charger online through European distributors like this one.
