Portable Solar Battery Charging

There are many options when it comes to portable solar battery charging. New technologies have created some pretty amazing solutions to charge electrical devices when away from the grid.
We have a link to Global Solar on our Solar for Emergencies (solarprepared.com) web site because their line of high quality foldable solar battery chargers are an important part of emergency preparedness for civilians as well as power advantage to the military.
There are four wattages of fold-out panels that come in two camo colors, wood and desert camo. I have added the link below so that you can purchase or investigate these important devices further.

Take a look at the various sizes in the two colors. For those of us that don't need the super high quality that the military demands, there is the Solarlinq series of foldable panels that come in three sizes. Scroll down the page on the first link above.

In later posts we will discuss how these panels can work perfectly with the Xantrex emergency power devices. These foldable panels are great for everyday camping, but especially important during power outages and emergencies. You can imagine all of the communication and lighting devices these things can keep operational!
I think the reason the military is turning to this kind of a power alternative is because batteries are so darn heavy, bulky and they run out of juice quickly. Almost everywhere in the world the sun shines, so there is an abundance of emergency power with a solar electric panel to recharge existing batteries.
The military grade panels are tough, and they will give you many years of trouble-free power acquisition for field electronics. While your are investigating, check out the short video presentation that is offered on both of the above sites. This line of products is highly recommended by "Solar for Emergencies" website and blog.
All the best, Mike
