2013 Gadget Gift Guide
As you might have already noticed, the TechFarmers are big fans of Goal Zero products. We highly support renewable energy and especially when it can power our gadgets. This nifty solar kit is great as it comes with four AA rechargeable batteries that can be used together with the USB port battery pack to provide a charge to your portable devices or separately if your device such as a flashlight needs a battery or two. It also comes with the Nomad 7 solar panel so you can charge your batteries on the go by using the sun. This great solar kit provides endless charging opportunities.
Here is a great present for the kids (and the kid in all of us). Bring the planetarium home and watch the stars and planets be projected onto the walls and ceilings.

Who doesn't love cars?! Everyone does in one way or another. They take us from one place to another in comfort and style.
