Do you want to be the ultimate green traveler? You may be renting a hybrid or staying at a green hotel, but does the stuff you travel with help you feel good about your travel? We found some interesting green travel gadgets at a reasonable price, and they have a practical use!
USB Rechargeable Batteries
Instead of carrying around a clunky battery charger pack, buy these USB rechargeable batteries that plug into the USB port of your computer to recharge. They last for 500 charge cycles, and they function like regular AA batteries. Use them to power your portable DVD player or portable alarm clock.
Water Powered Alarm Clock
Yes, it’s an alarm clock powered by water. Fill it up with water, and it is supposed to last for 6 to 8 weeks without refilling! It’s small enough to fit in a carry-on bag, and there are no batteries required! It has a memory chip that keeps the time while you are refilling the clock. I am not sure how much I would trust a water powered alarm clock, but it’s still a pretty cool gadget!
Solar Powered Bluetooth Headset
Why not take advantage of the greatest source of energy we have available to us? Instead of electricity, power your bluetooth headset with solar energy by Iqua. Whenever your headset catches sunlight, it will be automatically recharging. It boasts all of the technology features you would come to expect, and it is compatible with all bluetooth enabled mobile phones.
Cardboard Speakers
These 3” speakers are made of recycled materials, they are biodegradable, and they only cost $14.95. The most convenient thing about them is that they fold up for easy storage. This is a great gadget to have for listening to music on the beach, while you are backpacking around Europe, or just to have around the house. They also come in an assortment of fun colors. From the reviews I have read, the sound quality is surprisingly good for being made out of cardboard and having the ability to fold flat.
