Manufacturer of Copper Indium Gallium diSelenide (CIGS) thin film solar products,Global Solar Energy, Inc., (Tucson, Arizona, USA) has introduced universal serial bus (USB) enabled SUNLINQ portable solar chargers to the company's product portfolio.
The new feature charges and powers batteries for any mobile electronic device capable of connecting and charging via a USB interface, allowing consumers to keep their devices charged and ready to use at any time, from any location.
Equipped with high efficiency flexible solar cells, Global Solar's SUNLINQ USB Mini and SUNLINQ USB Plus solar chargers are lightweight, convenient and easy to use. The chargers deliver reliable solar power generation for any device with a USB port including mobile phones, PDAs, iPods, and electronic readers like the Kindle. Unlike most solar chargers which rely on an integrated battery to store power, the USB Mini and Plus solar chargers deliver energy directly to the device's battery, providing a faster and more efficient charge.
The SUNLINQ USB Mini and SUNLINQ USB Plus claim to bring a host of features and capabilities for the mobile consumer and professional, including:
- Portable: Global Solar's lightweight, flexible solar cells mean the charger itself can be laid out or attached to better optimize sunlight and make for easier carrying.
- Rugged Design: Originally designed to meet military specs, all of Global Solar Energy's portable chargers offer a tough, weather resistant, nylon rip-stop backing.
- Voltage Regulation: Standardized to 5 V to meet USB charging specifications.
- High Efficiency: SUNLINQ portable chargers power even under cloudy or overcast skies, making it the ideal solar charger for any region or outdoor activity.
