http://poptech.org/flap The FLAP project integrates a new 2-watt lighting and charging resource created by the Portable Light Project into the flap of a new type of messenger bag, created by Timbuk2. FLAP powers high brightness solid-state lighting for 10 hours with a 6-hour solar charge and provides clean energy through a USB port for charging cell phones, medical devices, radios, and many other tools.

The FLAP can provide mobile power and light for a diverse set of people and businesses: The FLAP USB can be used for a wide range of power needs, and in the evening, after panel exposure to sunlight, FLAP LED lighting has the potential to make education (be it reading, writing, or drafting), cottage industries (sewing and other crafts), and health care after dark possible in places where it simply wasnt before.
