If you are an adventurous person then you should have surely have taken a number of long hikes or camping trips. There are a few times when you are on your camping trip and you find that the batteries of your walkie-talkie have died and leave you without any means of communication. We all know that a cell phone is a pretty useless thing anywhere you go for a long hike and so you would be just stuck with a pair of walkie-talkie. You can now end all these problems as there is a new set of device that would charge up through a hand crank.

This little handy device is actually designed to serve multiple purposes. The device would play music from any AM or FM station or would also let you listen about the weather conditions through the NOAA channel. Apart from this you can also use the VOX feature in order to communicate with other similar crank radio or any other radio device that is tuned to the right band in a five mile radius.

This excellent device would only take a few cranks in order to power the radio for nearly an hour of continues music. This feature makes it a perfect device for anyone opting for far away camping or long hike. You also have the option of feeding in four AAA batteries in the device but it would take off the main part of its unique design.

The Tallest and Greenest Tower of Europe from a Gas Company

the-tallest-and-greenest-tower-of-europe-from-a-gas-company.jpg

The oil and gas industry of Russia has taken on a new life in the last decade. Capitalism and consolidation have increased the production and profits to great heights and we should also expect to see these companies making outlandish activities from these profits. Gazprom is the first in the state to run and is the largest company of Russia and third largest corporation throughout the world in terms of measures. The Gazprom have their headquarters in place of St. Petersburg and they would actually offer to pay nearly 49 percent of the project every year most peculiarly for the tallest tower of Europe in a city that never allowed any building to stand above 50 meters.

The Okhat tower is now on a go and apart from this it would be nearly 400 meters high as it would gain superiority over other 50 meter tall buildings. The Okhat tower would also be one of the best environmentally sustainable high rise towers throughout the world. The main reason for this is that it would have to be super insulated in order to maintain warm temperature during the 30 degree below zero winter of Russia. The double pained super insulated glass is compared to a fur coat in one of their press releases. However, they should have actually stayed away from the fur symbol among the American environmentalists. A few more environmental innovations are probably going to continue to leak out of the RMJM which is the British firm to design the tower.

Most of the people who already have a cell phone might have probably gone through a number of handsets during their entire life. However most of the people just throw away their old handsets without giving it a second thought after buying a new one. This has led to a huge stockpile of all the outdated and used electronic products and they are starting to fill up the landfill sites and these are becoming larger and larger every day. To this is the perfect solution by the Green Cell battery which would end this dilemma thereby offering a single and standardized battery that is universal enough to fit almost any personal electronic device even cell phones.

The Green Cell concept has earned a third place at the Greener Gadgets Competition that was recently held in New York City. This concept has been designed by Richardson with his acquaintances Alex Williams and Charles Brill of RBW. This excellent battery has been manufactured without any toxic chemicals thereby making the battery safe and eco friendly. Apart from this, the battery can also be recharged or replaced through a local vending machine and you can keep your electronic device fully charged as long as there is a vending machine. Although this green cell battery is not as universal as the solar power but it is much more convenient than all that is wasted today as each cell phone would have a separate battery. You will just have to wait until this environmental friendly and sustainable battery would make its way in the manufacturing line.
