It seems Ben Jandrell — the brains behind Orange’s recent wind powered charger — is considering launching the little orange-colored charger if interest is there for his product. Ben was commissioned to build three prototypes for Orange which were subsequently shown off at the Glastonbury festival. The yet unnamed contraption — though we’re feeling “The Engadget Mobile Charger” rings nicely — generates about a half-watt of power, enough to trickle charge the batteries you eventually tap into to juice up your mobile. If you are inspired to show yer green (both types) for this type of technology, hit up Ben’s site and leave your contact info.
