Solar Vest - Solar Battery + Charger for Portable Electronics


Here's one for the outdoor eco-conscious:


This Solar Vest is a fusion of fashion and technology that lets you keep your gadgets fully charged when you're working or playing outside.
This vest is like a solar power station to keep your cell phone, portable media player, notebook computer, digital camera, and other portable electronics fully powered while you are working outdoors.

This "fashion-tech" canvas vest is the perfect field accessory for photographers, archeologists, investigators, geologists, and anyone else constantly working outdoors. The CVFR-S09 Solar Vest is designed for your comfort and convenience. It comes with big storage pockets for holding tools or camera equipment and includes a battery pack + cables and connectors for all of today's popular portable electronics.

The vest's canvas is soft but durable and the stitching is second to none. The vest's 4 solar panels are laminated to be truly weatherproof, so you don't have to change this vest just because the weather is bad. You can also detach the solar panels and place them in sunlight while you are working inside a cave or shaded terrain.

So how do you use it? Well, just because it's high tech and super hip doesn't mean it's difficult to use. While you walk outside, the four solar panels on the back of the vest absorb solar energy and store it in a high-capacity battery located in the front left pocket. When your cell phone or other gadget needs power, just plug it into the battery and let it charge. Simple as that!

Shop Review: Health & Fitness

Shop Owner: Roberto Garcia

How It All Began

"I started out like many people having a look round the internet of possible ways of making an extra income for myself. After a variety of useless money making opportunities on the internet I stumbled upon the idea of trying to see if one could make any money with online auction sites like eBay."

"So I found myself a couple of dropshippers (not really knowing what I was going to be selling) and started testing some sales and soon found the hype of eBay not really all it was made out to be."

"Spending far too much in fees and not getting enough sales to justify even a small profit. Of course a lot of these original problems were due to a lack of research into the eBay phenomena, but as they say we learn more by our mistakes than by our success."


Development
"Slowly, I started to move myself into the market of Health and Fitness DVD’s and Books and once I had realised that dropshippers will never work due to the problems of relying on another company to fill your eBay orders. I soon sourced myself a few suppliers and started building up some stock levels and could see the beginnings of a plan to start moving forward with a business idea."

"But of course at this stage I could not really see a great deal of future working with eBay due to their ever increasing fees wiping out any small profits and eventually in 2008 I decided to branch out and have a go at my own shop on the web"


Obstacles
"Now as most people will know, companies like eBay, Amazon and other similar sites have cornered the internet market in regards to online DVD and BOOK sales, so I have really given myself a big mountain to climb to make a dent in these big boys and ultimately get some good rankings with Google, but sometimes the fun is in the challenge."

Future
"But as a business, it is not always a point of them and us. You can still use these companies to try and make an income from and it is always best to spread your options around, so currently I sell on Amazon, eBay, My Site (Health & Fitness DVDs & Books) and of course recently joining the newly created site HighStreetSale.com"

I have to admit while I am still trying to get to grips with the SEO for my website, I do rely on these other sites to bring in some sales and give me funds to keep building and increasing my number of stock lines.

"So as things stand, I will continue to work on improving my Health & Fitness Website, continue playing with my blog and keep selling the fitness products and help make the British public a little healthier"

Thank you,

Roberto Garcia

Our New SIte

Welcome to our Blog

We have created this blog as we recently launched HighStreetSale.com and wanted to find out what you the buyers and sellers think of the site.

HighStreetSale.com is a hybrid of ebay/amazon except individuals are not allowed to register only businesses, including sole traders, partnerships and companies. We feel that what was lacking on some other sites was a lack of a professional service and to some extent not really knowing who you are dealing with.

What we offer is a more trustworthy site where we personally check each potential seller and ensure that they are in fact a bone fide business. What this means for buyers is a safer shopping environment knowing that you are dealing with professional sellers.

The other major benefit of using the site is that buyers receive real cost savings for everyday retail shopping bargains such as mobile phones, mp3 players, clothes, shoes, health and beauty, toys and much much more.

As the name suggests, sellers can only list products that are reduced in price, eg. end of season sales, special offers, stock clearances etc.

We hope you visit HighStreetSale.com as a bargain hunter or a retailer and give your feedback on what you do.do not like and as a new site we are always open to suggestions of improving your customer experience.


Take Care,

HighStreetSale.com Team
