Solar-powered Digital Audio Player Developed by Thanko

Solar-powered Digital Audio Player Developed by Thanko

Making use of the Sun for charging the gizmos is essentially the most important way to enjoy entertainment in a natural manner. With almost all the companies trying to go green, Thanko has also taken a step forward to go eco-friendly.

Japanese company, Thanko has announced its latest solar chargeable Digital Audio Player (DAP) that stays alive through the power of the sun.

The Solar Digital Audio Player comes equipped with a 1.8-inch display with a 220 x 176 pixel resolution, 4 GB of built-in memory with a support for miniSD external memory support (256 MB to 2 GB). It supports MP3/WMA/WAV for audio and AVI/RM/VOB/DAT/RMVB video file formats.

Besides, it also comes integrated with a solar panel, which is placed at the back of the product, allowing users to charge the battery of the DAP. All they need to do is get the panel out in the sun for charging purposes. The solar powered device has only one problem that is the night charging, which won’t be possible. Of course, for that purpose it offers a USB connection to let your DAP working.


It is compatible with MP3, WMA and WAV for audio files and AVI, RM, VOB, DAT and RMVB video file formats. The Thanko DAP comes bundled with earphones and USB cable.

No official announcement has been made by Thanko about the Solar Digital Audio Player’s release date and price.
