Device unveiled at Greener Gadgets Design Competition
A thin film solar cell is built into the laminated aluminum lid. In sunlight, the cell can harvest enough energy to allow a page turn every 8 seconds. No external provisions are made for charging the device from mains power, so 100% of the energy used by it is renewable. The lid is linked to the main body with a two element living hinge which conceals the electrical connections to the solar cell.
