Keep your phone and [iPod](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ipod-classic-iphone-17-case) charged while keeping that electric bill low at the same time when you use this flower-inspired charging device. The cute Sunflower absorbs solar power from the sun when you place it near a window and expose it to light. It charges your gadgets with its powerful 2500mAh [rechargeable lithium battery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deepsolar-x20-solar-power-bank). Just connect your phone or MP3 player to the Sunflower through the green colored USB port and watch your technology recharge.
