Powerful Fashion Statement - Electrifying Solar Garments

From pocket calculators and wristwatches to roof shingles and roadways, the integration and permeation of photovoltaic technology is ever expanding and becoming more sophisticated. Now, with the advent of Wearable Solar Capable Garments (WSCG), you can fulfill all your mobile energy capacity needs with just a jacket and a utility belt.

"The utility belt is intended for heavier applications," explains Matt Brunker, Senior Communications Officer of Photophlex Garments, "but it's optional, and you can enjoy the benefits of limitless energy with only the jacket and tablet-sized conversion interface. It includes two USB outputs, a utility belt connecter, and a five-way selectable DC output for cameras or other devices."

But how tolerable would it be to wear for long periods on hot summer days?

"It's surprisingly lightweight and breathable considering what it is, but we don't recommend it for really hot days," says Brunker.

And just how much energy capacity does it have?

"It depends on many factors, one of which being how many rechargeable battery packs you're willing to carry inside the belt. Without the belt, it will easily recharge an empty smart phone or tablet in under two hours. With the belt fully loaded, it will take around six hours to fully charge all the cells, and on a slightly overcast day, provide around eight to twelve hours worth of juice for a laptop computer once you're out of the sun."

Do we need more creative defense spending in Canada?

I posted this on the National Post's Facebook channel moments ago:

I'm no expert, but I'm thinking that committing to some solid defense spending now, will likely pay-off in the future. Like when NATO numbers come under scrutiny. We don't want to find ourselves scrambling for a deal at the last minute to uphold our sovereignty, and get ripped-off in the process.
