Andrew Schneider’s solar bikini is made of solar panels and cost 120 pounds.

He spends up to 80 hours hand-stitching each bikini with 40 paper-thin flexible,photo-voltaic panels and conductive thread.

The user can even take a dip.

“You just need to be dry before hooking up,” The Daily Mail quoted Schneider as saying.

Anyone worried about getting a shock from her swimwear needn’t be.

“You wouldn’t even feel the charge,” he added.
