Reviews of the Voltaic Backpack
-
CNET Review
The Good: The Voltaic Backpack's water-resistant shell is made of recycled soda bottles; mesh lets air circulate; waist strap; roomy; sleeve for 17-inch laptop; battery; includes 11 adapters, DC car charger, AC travel charger, and lithium-ion battery.
The Bad: Voltaic uses stiff solar panels; as with other solar chargers, charging depends on the position in the sunlight and available light; easy-to-lose components.
The Bottom Line: The Voltaic Backpack's thoughtful design and solar-charging features shine for keeping cell phones, handhelds, MP3 players, and digital cameras charged away from electrical outlets.
Manufacturer: Voltaic Systems Inc.
Part number: 1001 Silver
