The [collapsible water bottle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elio) features a 700ml capacity for liquid and can be compacted down into a unit that's just 2.7 inches in height to make it suitable for storage in a backpack or other bag. The bottle is topped with a [solar panel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beambike) on the top that can harness the power of the sun and relay the energy to the 2,000mAh battery within. Users can recharge their choice of USB device via the built-in outlet or use the accompanying light to enjoy lantern-style illumination when they need it most.
