Pay your money and take your choice: a solar-powered battery charger for an Apple MacBook for $1,200; or a new Apple MacBook for $200 less.
A Kansas company called QuickerTek has just announced the Apple “Juicz,” for those who just can’t find an AC outlet nearby, but can find the sun (the company claims someone took a Mac and a Juicz on a visit to Mount Everest and it worked well—closer to the sun, I guess).
The $1,200 lightweight, flexible panel puts out 55 watts and supposedly fully recharges just about any current Apple laptop in six hours, plugging into the Magsafe port. A bargain model for $700 has 27 watts and takes about twice as long to recharge the MacBook.
It’s a serious device, but at this price, one would have to be either committed to going green full time, or just committed. After all, AC outlets are…well, ubiquitous. As one reviewer noted, $1,200 could buy one heck of an extension cord.
