GLSO files patent app for sweet iPhone Volt Solar Charger

I mentioned back at the beginning of the month that GSLO had received its first test shipments of the Volt Solar Charger. GLSO has one of the only solar panel packing iPhone 4 cases on the market and the thing will be hitting stores before you know it. GSLO has announced that it has filed a patent app for the Volt Solar Charger.

GLSO reports that the Volt is the only iPhone battery pack it knows about that will work with the AT&T and Verizon version of the iPhone. The Volt case will come to North American in red, black, and white with a one-year warranty. GSLO is still taking reservations for the case if you want to order one up.

"Filing this patent application is an important step in bringing the Volt Solar Charger to market," Rohde said. "We anticipate that this filing will protect our proprietary technology and dissuade potential competitors from copying our design."
