It’s funny, but it was just the other day that I was thinking to myself, “Self, I wonder if anyone has put out a solar-powered iPhone charger?”  This wasn’t some West Coast, hippy-groovy, let’s eat tofu and wear hemp-cloth shirts, green world kind of thought.  No, this was a selfish, “How the heck do I recharge this damn thing when there ain’t no plugs around?” kind of thought.

Well, obviously some folks at USBfever have been thinking along the same lines, because they have indeed come up with a solar power pack for the iPhone.  According to the folks at USBfever, “This portable charger can recharge your iPhone to 100% about one and half times when the this powerpack is fully charged!”  For a gadget that contains no batteries, recharges by sunbathing, and doesn’t look to be a whole lot bulkier than battery-powered rechargers, it seems like a decent buy at the MSRP of $54.99.

So if you’re a selfish technogypsy like me, or if you’re a hippy-groovy tree-hugging environmentalist who nontheless needs his or her gear recharged on the go, or even if you don’t care either way but are just sick of dealing with double-A Duracels, surf over to the USBfever site and check it out.

More info after the jump.
