Versatile Solar Clock soaks up its power on a wall or table

solarclock.jpg

You may not mind buying a clock from a place called "Suck UK" — we don't, especially when it's as well-designed as this $39 Solar Clock. Save your batteries, because this baby's internal battery is charged by the sun, powered by that solar panel up front.

Mount it vertically or horizontally on the wall with its longer, overhanging hands, or swap out those for the included shorter hands for setting the clock on a table — either way, when the power goes out, your Solar Clock will still be ticking away. Sure beats a sundial. Or, you could forget this one and get a solar clock with a smoke alarm on board.

Cool product you've shown us here. For once, they've actually been able to incorporate solar tech and keep aesthetic value!

But You'll need a room with a good sun-ray to use this stuff. If you are living in a shady room, forget about this cool product! ;)
