Solar-powered speakerphone for greener Bluetooth users
publication date: Jan 13, 2010
Scosche Industries an award winning innovator of iPod
and iPhone accessories, today launches the solCHAT solar powered
Bluetooth speakerphone.
Eliminating the need for inbuilt car kits and suited to
those who prefer not to use a Bluetooth headset, the solCHAT offers an
environmentally friendly hands-free option, enabling users to enjoy the
functionality of a mobile phone safely and legally while driving. The
solCHAT retails for £59.99 and is available from www.eoutlet.co.uk.
Designed to be the ultimate in ‘Eco-mobility’, the solCHAT features an integrated solar panel to soak up the sunlight. Being able to store the energy within its internal
Lithium-ion battery for up to a year means the solCHAT is always
charged and ready for use, even charging on overcast and cloudy days. | |  | | | The speakerphone also comes with a backup USB charging
cable and car adaptor for charging at night. Ultra portable and only
3.5” x 2” x 0.5”, the solCHAT sits comfortably on a windscreen or sun
visor for easy operation and solar charging.
The solCHAT offers high quality audio and maximum clarity when users
make or receive a call. By transferring contacts from a mobile phone to
the solCHAT via Bluetooth, users can make use of the built in voice
features including caller ID. This makes it easy for the driver to know
who is calling without taking their eyes off the road.
The solCHAT also
supports voice dialing on most cellular phones and voice command with
the iPhone 3GS. Its simple three button design (volume up, volume down,
and answer/hang up) and automatic mobile phone pairing makes the
solCHAT an incredibly user-friendly device.
Kas Alves, Executive Vice President, Scosche Industries said,
“Motorists who use hand-held mobile phones while driving can face a
fixed penalty fine of £60 and three points added to their license. The
solCHAT solves this problem and helps users lower their impact on the
environment at the same time.” | | | | |
