USB 2.0 4-port hub by Brando Workshop soaks in the sun

Most of the gadgets we use today hook up via a USB cable to charge, be it mp3 players, e-book readers, GPS devices or mobile phones. And to keep all these charged up on the go, a nearby USB port is a must. Well, Brando Workshop’s USB 2.0 4-port hub works just great if you’re out traveling and need a quick recharge for your device. And the best part is still to come. This one powers up using energy from the sun! Hell yeah! It’s solar powered! Integrated with a solar panel, the hub has 7 mobile-phone connectors and can charge up 4 devices at a time. And incase you think the sun’s too fickle minded and might just not show up, you can charge this one up at home too before heading out. An added feature to the hub is a torch light, also powered by solar power.

Weighing in at just around an ounce, the USB 2.0 4-port hub costs just $22, not a large amount for this green charger, yet another one to join the ranks of the Sun Drive and the Eneloop by Sanyo!
