EcoFlow has launched an innovative solar-powered hat at the IFA 2024 technology expo, designed to charge devices using solar energy. Priced at $80, the hat features eight solar panels and a 360-degree solar-paneled brim, providing both Type-A and Type-C charging ports.

The hat can fully charge a 4,000mAh smartphone battery in three to four hours, depending on sunlight conditions.

Weighing just 370 grams, it is foldable and boasts an IP65 waterproof rating, making it ideal for outdoor use.

It will be available for pre-order in mid-October, with two size options: medium-large and large-extra-large.

In addition to the hat, EcoFlow is introducing its RAPID Series, which includes two magnetic power banks with 5,000mAh and 10,000mAh batteries, featuring fast charging capabilities.
