This portable wind turbine can charge your phone with just a breeze


The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the wind.

Now available for preorder through a Kickstarter campaign offering discounts on its full $571 retail pricing for early backers, the Shine 2.0 is an improved version of the company’s first portable wind turbine that arrives with several welcome upgrades. To help improve its performance, the Shine 2.0 can be upgraded with an optional six-foot tall mount that positions it higher in the air where winds can be stronger. A new app can be used to remotely monitor the Shine 2.0 turbine over Bluetooth, including wind speeds and charge time estimates.
