These Tommy Hilfiger jackets can turn off your mood by their ridiculous designs. The broad strips at the back are in no way fashion sensible but they serve bigger purpose. These strips are actually solar cells which can charge you cell phone battery. These stripes are solar panels which will absorb solar radiation and help you to charge your phone by plugging in with your jacket.
The apparel has been sponsored by Tommy Hilfiger in association with solar manufacturer Pvilio. The number of solar cells will vary from 7 to 10 and the energy extracted will be conserved into an energy bank of up to 6000 mAh of energy. The jacket will facilitate USB connectivity between the jacket and the phone. It is still not known how much time will charging of the phone take. The cells are detachable so that the jackets can be washed without damaging the chargers. No one can deny the utility but the jacket looks quite weird. The price is $599 and it’s up to you if you choose to buy these jackets. There is still possibility that improvements might be made in the design which can be advantageous in future.
