Scurrying about the streets of any major American city are trendy hipsters all attempting to express their own personal style. The one fashion element they all have in common, however, is the set of small white chords dangling from their ears and disappearing mysteriously into a messenger bag, purse, or pocket.
But what do you do if you want to go a little more macro with the tunes from your iPhone or iPod?
There are plethora of portable but powerful external speakers capable of connecting to an iPhone or iPod (or Android phone, for that matter). Most of these sound systems can be operated via battery power or A/C power. Inevitably, the one time you want to rock out on battey power, the sound system craps out after about 3 minutes.
Enter the Soulra, a solar powered iPhone/iPod sound system. But what makes it different from the others?
In addition to its solar panel, the system comes equipped with full range speaker drivers, a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, and an aluminum and rubberized body designed for all-weather use outdoors. The case is also IPX-4 splash proof and the speakers are sealed on the inside to protect them from sand, water, and other outdoor elements.
“There has been a void in the consumer market for a quality, green-powered digital music player...Whether you are camping, spending a day at the beach or tailgating – the Soulra will be a mainstay at any outdoors event,” says Esmail Amid-Hozour, CEO of Etón Corporation.
