It's a scientifically proven fact of life that when you need a laser printer most, the machine will jam. When you need a fax it won't send. When you need to have a shave before an important interview there's no hot water. And when one really needs to know what time it is, the clock has stopped. What one needs is a never ending power supply for said clock - a renewable energy source if you will. Impossible? Why no. Here at Gadgetshop HQ we think it is very possible.

It's just for these occasions that this little marvel was not so much invented but hatched. For it's a true work of natural inspiration. Like its friend the Sun Jar, this handy solar powered clock is as much of a looker as it is practical and eco-friendly. With a smart and simple solar panel on its front it's a far cry from the days of those dodgy calculators you had to crouch under a bright light to use.

Us gadgeteers are major fans of creativity, and this little clock has a clean and unfussy design that lets you stand it up whichever way you want. It's also supplied with two sets of hands (long & short) to give you the options of wall mounted or free standing. Decisions decisions. To boot, its solar power charges a rechargeable battery inside which means that you'll never be caught in the twilight zone wondering what the time really is after a night-time power cut.
