Triumph's solar powered lingerie set

Treat your missus to something special this summer

We love gadgets. And we maybe love lingerie more. So it was only a matter of time then before some randy egghead combined the two in an effort to create the ultimate crossover. Yup, solar-heated lingerie.

Sadly, that man was from Triumph lingerie and was about as in tune with what's sexy as baffling horse-botherer John McCririck. It looks more like it came from Triumph motorcycles.

Resembling a slab of astro-turf, it features an enormous solar panel on the front and microwavable gel-packs for the bra that'll keep her lady bumps warm for hours. Toasty.

The solar panel will charge a mobile, iPod and other portable gadget, though where she'd keep them in this get up we'd love to know. It needs a few hours exposure a day too, but is detachable so don't get your hopes up about a lingerie-clad Sheila from accounts parading around the office.

There are no plans to market this commercially right now, but if you want to see it, drop a comment below and we'll forward them on to the pervy powers that be.
