Need a gift idea for that musician in your life who already has everything? Try a solar powered guitar tuner, which up until this week didn't exist.
Tascam's new TC-1S measures just 3.77 x 0.71 x 1.57 inches and charges its battery from a bank of solar cells on the front panel. When the weather isn't cooperating, you can also charge the device via USB.
Other features include a built-in microphone, custom LCD display with note, sharp/flat indicators, and a bar graph for pitch deviation, a shock resistant silicon case, and four display modes (Bar, Fine, Strobe Animation, Needle).
The TC-1S is available now for $40 and comes in six different colors.

This product has nothing to do with computers or "Maximum" anything. Please put this type of thing elsewhere as it does not belong at Maximum PC.

It falls under the Maximum Tech umbrella, which covers consumer electronics of all types.

If it falls under Maximum Tech then find Maximum Tech's website and post it there.
