At CES 2012 the Mobius company presented the case with external battery and solar charger called Elton and designed for iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S. You can see in the video clip above that we are talking about a case with a rather interesting design that doubles the thickness of an iPhone terminal but offers the user an external 1700 mAh battery plus the possibility to charge the device using only solar energy. The case is specially designed to allow the insertion and removal of the terminal in the simplest possible way and the connector port connects to the iPhone instead of us connecting the iPhone to it.
Here are some of the features of Eton Mobius:
- High efficiency monocrystal solar panel
- Rechargeable lithium ion battery pack
- Battery charge indicator
- Solar charge indicator
- Durable case to protect iPhone
- USB connection to charge and sync with iTunes
- Standby switch to turn off charge dump to iPhone allowing your case to charge and store energy in its own battery
- The unique and proprietary snap-fit design allows for ease of use and protection while inserting and removing your iPhone
- Dimensions: 2.44″ W x 5.1″ H x .0875″ D (61.9mm W x 129.5mm H x 22.2mm D)
- Weight: 3.4 oz. (96.4 g)
The case is available for purchase on website those at Eton for $80.
