The Diffus Solar Handbag Fuses Fashion and Pragmatism
Jordan Sowunmi — May 28, 2011 — Eco
While handbags with solar cells that charge electronic devices have already been created, the Diffus solar handbag attempts to up the ante by creating a solar handbag that is extremely stylish with the ability to completely charge a cell phone and help find a set of keys in dark lighting.
The Diffus solar handbag contains 100 small solar power stations that charge a mobile device and a powerful lithium-ion battery. When in a dark or nighttime setting, the bag sends out optical fibers that illuminate your bag and make it easy to spot anything inside you have trouble finding.
Diffus hasn't announced a release date or price point for the solar handbag, but one can expect something so nifty and practical to cost a pretty penny.
