One thing to know about me (Ike) is that I’m an eco-gadget junkie; I’m always on the look out for a hip new trick that is both functional and sustainable. The good news is that I got my fix with a line of solar-powered bags made by Reware. Functional? Yes! These bags come in different designs (backpack, daypack, messenger bags) and colors for all body and personality types AND each one is equipped with thin-film solar panels of 52 micro-solar cells that will generate 7 watts of raw sun power to charge up any 12-volt electronic device- your cell-phone, PDA, ipod, digital camera, or GPS. Can you spell F-R-E-E-D-O-M? Sustainable? Yes! and double yes! These bags are made from shredded plastic soda bottles. The material is flexible and feels good to the touch, as well as water-resistant and long lasting. Since I’m giving the nomadic lifestyle a good shot, living on a sailboat and an RV, using 12-volt power and 150 gallons of water a month, this line of bags is helping me take one more step off the grid. Now I can hike up to the top of “the Hook” (our beloved mountain in Nyack,NY) and enjoy the view of the Hudson River while I keep my Blackberry charging and the iPod tunes pumping. With an extra solar powered battery I can even keep my laptop going and pay my bills on line. So check out the Juice Bags at Rewarestore.com. and then start planning your next vacation off the grid and stay unplugged for days!!!
