The creators named it as “solar paper” and say, that on a clear and sunny day, it will allow to charge the iPhone 6 in 2.5 hours. The paper can be carried in notebook – it will not damage cover or damaging itself. Sun paper – this is the most delicate Charger for generating alternative energy. It can be folded into a book and taken with you on a walk or in a hike. On a sunny day, two thin sheets of such paper will be able to charge the iPhone 2.5 hours. Sheet size solar paper – 9*4*9*4cm which are sizes of 4 sides respectively; weight – 120 g. This is 13% of the size and 26% by weight of the closest analogue of this charger solar energy. In addition, unlike other solar charge, a paper itself is automatically disabled when the gadget is fully charged or when the sun went behind a cloud. It has a small display that shows the remaining charge. Currently presented 4 kinds of paper with different solar power: 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10 watts. Another advantage of solar paper, which charges the connected devices, will even if a shadow fell on the panel or light intensity dramatically decreased. The device will automatically begin charging again once the enough power is accumulated to issue relevant indicators. In addition, solar paper as water resistant and is equipped with magnets, which allow you to record sheets on metal supports or connect with each other to increase the capacity of reception of solar energy.
