March, 24 2008 – Better Energy systems is pleased to announce the availability of its newest Solio model, The Solio Magnesium Edition (Solio Mg). The Solio Mg is the most powerful and efficient hybrid solar charger on the market, with one hour of sunlight providing Solio users with an additional 25 minutes of cell phone talk time or 50 minutes of MP3 music. Its max output of 8 watts is more than three times that of the older Solio Classic model.

The Solio Mg is a masterpiece of design, based on the award-winning Classic - with a strong yet elegant magnesium alloy shell, and a lithium ion battery that can store power for up to one year. The Mg’s sophisticated internal circuitry communicates with the device it is charging to send the precise voltage, eliminating spikes in power and providing a safe, reliable charge again and again. The Magnesium’s iGo Tip System means it’s compatible with hundreds of handheld devices, including iPod, iPhone, digital cameras, smart phones, Bluetooth headsets and handheld gaming consoles.

“Better Energy Systems is the leader in the eco-mobility market,” said company CEO and Founder, Christopher Hornor. “To maintain that position it was necessary to advance our technology while remaining true to our core beliefs. This resulted in our most powerful, and efficient model yet - the Magnesium Edition, which is also carbon neutral.“

The Solio Mg is available at Solio.com and REI, and is priced at $199.99 MSRP.
