    Default How about a Solar Power Tuner?

    http://www.gizmag.com/tascam-solar-i...t-tuner/16607/




    Whether you're a green guitarist or someone who just wants to cut down on the expense and inconvenience of all those 9V batteries, the TC-1S could be just what the doctor ordered. It will be available from selected Tascam retailers some time in October for a little under US$40.

    Cool but how useful on a dark stage?
    I notice there's no mention of battery life either in this article or the product page. I'll take a small clip on with a button cell like the Snark anyday. These are $15 from Amazon btw.

    Why not for home use, stage tuners are a different story entirely of course. That meter doesn't look very appealing to me, though, in the photos.
