EcoXPower lets you pedal-power your phone and lights when cycling

Mount your phone as a GPS, power your lights, and charge your mobile all at once just by cycling along

Sure cycle-powered chargers have been on our radar before, but none have boasted an ability to charge your lights too – until the EcoXPower.

The EcoXPower comes with front and rear LED lights as well as a water-resistant, touch-friendly cradle mount for any phone or GPS device. Then, using a universal hub mounted to your wheel, it uses your pedal power to charge the lot.

So you’re saving on electricity bills, saving on buying a cycle GPS, and saving on changing batteries in your lights. All for US$100 (£63) – we’re very tempted.
