Charge Your Mobile Devices with a Solar Powered Bra

- Warner Crocker

SolarbraI’m not trying to be prurient here, nor am I trying to make fun. But I have to say this is one of the most intriguing mobile tech/green stories I have ever seen. Japanese lingerie maker Triumph International is showing off a Solar Power Bra concept.

Of course it raises some interesting issues, given that most folks would wear clothing over them. And then there is this bit from the company: you can’t wash the garment.

Apparently this company keeps looking for innovative ways to use ladies lingerie as they have previously created a bra that turns into a resuable shopping bag.

Would it be sexist to scale certain women in terms of wattage?
