This particular laptop bag, named "The Generator" is covered in solar panels powerful enough to charge your computer while you're on the move. Compared to other bags of this type, Voltaic's bag generates 14.7 watts of power while the other solar bags generated about 4 watts of power. Since the bag is mainly made with recycled soda bottles it is essentially waterproof and very durable. Though I don't know about you, but my soda bottles get pretty pliable and very hot when I have them out in the sun. I imagine you'd have to have this laptop bag in direct sunlight for quite some time to generate that much power. Don't you think?
This lovely bag will be available sometime this coming Spring for $599. For more information be sure to check the Voltaic Systems website.
