New Zealand-based company 2C sells a variety of solar light cap that charged during the day to give light at the night. All the collected energy, light-emitting technology lies in the curved part of semi-flexible pre-bent beak of the cap including solar panels and the NiMH batteries used to store them.
This tent comes with solar panels and integrated, interior LED lights. You can also use solar panels to charge the battery independently. That’s about 4-6 hours of direct light to yield 2-4 hours tent light. The 7″ (18 cm) solar panel placed on the hub of tents and clicked into place. Fly is then placed on a solar panel & tent, and sun will charge the panel through the clear PVC window at the top of the fly. Unfortunately, like most tents, this one is made from petroleum-based materials (nylon and PVC). Certainly there is a substitute that can be used out there! Tent comes as a four-person and six-person version, and the price is $ 180 (CAD) and $ 220 (CAD) each. For more information, visit Canadian Tire site. [Via]
Kinesis’ K2 device incorporating wind turbines, solar panels and an internal 3800mAh battery to create a smart charger for all handheld gadgets. This device can be left in a sunny or windy all day and can charge the internal battery through a 20-hour wind alone or 8 hours through the solar (direct sunlight) or may be less than 8 hours by both simultaneously. There is a USB port that is used to transfer power from the internal battery to the phone, music player, etc. Further information about prices and availability are available on the Kinesis Industries site.
Executive Summary about Solar Battery Charger by Anna Stone
Solar Battery Chargers are used to charge your batteries when you are not connected to the power grids and do not have access to another form of electricity. The way a Solar Charger works is simple. The solar panel of the battery charger collects energy from the sun and converts this into electricity. Now, there are many different types of solar battery chargers, as well as different types of batteries you might want to charge. Some solar chargers are more powerful than others. As all solar battery chargers use some type of solar panel, the amount of power they generate generally depends on the size of the panels. Solar panels are made up of individual solar cells. Solar cells are the units which create electricity out of sunlight. The more solar cells there are on a solar panel, the more electricity they create. So you will generally find that bigger solar panels produced more energy, and smaller solar panels produce less.
Some solar battery chargers work with simple AA batteries, like those that you would use to run a flashlight. Some charge the batteries of your equipment, such as the battery in your laptop computer.
You might ask why one uses a solar charger to charge a battery, instead of just directly running one’s equipment from a solar panel.
The sun’s heat might damage your cell phone. There are a variety of solar battery chargers and other portable solar power devices available on the market today. Further information and answers to common questions can be found at Solar Chargers and Portable Solar Power Devices.
How Solar Powered Battery Chargers Can Ease Your Everyday’s Life
Executive Summary about Solar Battery Charger by Assaf Katzir
Solar battery charger is one of these devices that became a necessity once we have all these electric devices that we use on a daily basis. iPod, laptop, mobile phone, PDA, GPS etc’ just name it. There are portable flexible solar panels that you can place in your small bag and use them to charge your electrical devices’ batteries when you need to without being attached to any electrical grid outlet. Most solar chargers are equipped with plug kits which match to variety of electric devices. The variety of solar chargers’ sizes, shapes and uses continue to grow rapidly.

Executive Summary about Solar Installation by Gio Rigt
Make sure you choose the perfect location for you solar panels. Nothing should block the solar panel from receiving sunlight. A little bit of shadow blocking the panels reduces the amount of energy the solar panel produces tremendously.
Place the posts first and attach metal rails to the posts on your roof. Attach solar panel mounts to the solar panels, the roof-ground mounts will suffice.
After installing the solar panels, connect them to the inverter. When it comes to inverters, the synchronous solar panel inverter is the best affordable choice.
The solar energy is stored in a battery, excess energy is sold back to the utility company. If there ever is a situation where you do not have enough energy for your house, the utility company will supply the energy through the solar panel converter.
You are done with your solar panel installation.
Solar Panels – Professional Installation Vs Do-It-Yourself
Executive Summary about Solar Installation by Tina Metcalf
There is a product available on the internet called Earth for Energy. For about $40, they will send you a PDF or Adobe file with information on how to make or build your own energy efficient green devices.
Supposedly, for a fraction of the retail costs, someone should be able to construct windmills, solar cell panels and other green related things to either augment your electrical consumption, or ultimately, get yourself off the grid completely. Thinking efficiency all around, it would be so much easier, and in the long run cost effective, to find reputable dealers that build and manufacture green technology, like solar cell panels. My thought is this; go with a local solar installer (like Cooler Planet), let them sweat the details, add on a little at a time as your budget allows, and enjoy your life.
