We have already covered a nifty little gadget similar to this in the past in the Solio Solar Charger but this little “beaut” has now replaced that as our favourite portable gizmo charger. Solar power is boring now and wind power is the new fad amongst tree-huggers and with the HY Mini Wind Turbine you can have your very own little tree hugging wind turbine sitting in your pocket so your media goodies never have to die on you again.

The mini turbine generates power in order to charge up the on-board battery and is small enough that you can take it anywhere with you. It is ideal for cycling with and other fast paced activities or simply running around the garden holding it in the air, whatever floats your boat. It comes with a load of interchangeable adapters so you can plug it into numerous devices including iPods, Mobile Phones, Digital Cameras, PDA’s and loads more of your electronic treats. Just in case you live in the least breezy town in Britain you can also charge the battery via mains but it is way more fun to attach it to your bicycle and go cycling down hills all day.
