'Bendy Tech' Article features Flexi Solar Panel
Our Flexi Solar Panel has appeared on a Bendy Tech slideshow on the MSN Tech & Gadgets UK web site. The show features 10 examples of flexible or "bendy" technology, and our solar panel appears alongside some incredible new stuff including a loudspeaker that looks like tinfoil, a phone that looks like a sheet of paper, and a fold-up computer mouse. There's even a slightly creepy wearable energy harvesting device capable of generating power from body heat and light... think we'll stick to solar panels!

With Spring on its way and the promise of warm weather, we have been busy with a new product range aimed at the serious traveller. With our thoughts turning to holidays and exploring new places, we have put together a range of high-spec folding panels, making power on the move easier then ever before.

Solar powered dress
Fashion designer Rachel Bagley has used our flexible modules to create a unique range clothing. Her solar powered jacket and dress are part of her wearable electronics collection that also have a touch sensitive fabric remote control integrated into the fabric under the surface which allows the wearer to change volume or track without touching the ipod.
Rachel has integrated our Powerfilm PT7.2-150 (200mA @ 7.2V) mini solar panels into a corset that can power an ipod. The solar panel is attached to a circuit board that controls the current and regulates the voltage; this then has a USB connector that can power any electronic device needing 6 Volts. She has constructed a tailored cream silk jacket that has 12 mini PV panels connected in series and parallel along the front and back of the jacket which will be able to charge an ipod or similar device. A yellow strapless cotton dress also has 12 mini PV panels integrated into the fabric along the bust.
The garments are made using organic cotton and environmentally friendly peace silk as the collection is designed to have a positive effect on the environment and provide renewable electricity.
