Solar Powered Electric Bonsai Tree



Created by French designer Vivien Muller, the Electree+ conceals a USB connection underneath its wood-topped base unit.The designer said he was inspired to make the product after observing real trees, noticing that their leaves acted as natural solar panels.



The designer is waiting to receive 400 presale orders for the product before commencing production.
But while the gadget may cut down on your energy bills, it might take you a while to recoup the savings, as it will costs £283.



It looks like a bonsai tree and features solar panels that gather energy to charge an iPhone or other electronic device. The electree+ harvests solar energy through 27 high-quality amorphous-silicon square solar panels, each 3.7 inches wide.



Energy is stored in a 14,000mAh internal battery capable of recharging an iPhone5 over nine times, a Samsung Galaxy S3 smartphone seven times, or an iPad 2 twice, without needing light exposure on a single charge.
