If you think about it, solar gadgets are pretty much useless if you're hanging around inside your house or office all day long. Why not use a sun-shielding curtain as your solar energy gathering device? It's an idea that makes sense.

Plug the bottom of this Some Shine Solar Energy Storage System into its battery pack base, and it gathers juice for you all day. At night, connect your gadgetry for replenishment. Great idea.
