How to power your laptop using solar panel power
Portable Power
Do you need to power your laptop on the move with solar power? Have you ever found yourself thinking why aren't you using a solar panel to power your laptop? What you need is the Gorilla Solar Laptop Charger. This portable charger is ideal for use in all kinds of environments, whether you are hiking, camping, fishing, visiting remote environments or just simply want free electricity. The Solar Gorilla Laptop Charger is by miles the best choice for charging all kinds of electronics gadgets. Keep in mind that the laptop power consumption should be below 40 watts. Featuring a USB socket, you can charge your cellphone, ipod, camera, smartphone and 5 volt devices too.

Whats in the box
It comes with 8 different laptop power connectors, a wide variety of phone charger plugs and different types of USB plugs. Don't worry if you're an Apple user, this also supports the Macbook, Macbook Pro and Macbook Air but make sure you have the Apple MagSafe airline adaptor. I recommend it as a very reliable laptop solar battery charger, working in very low light even in the northern hemisphere, even in severe weather conditions. Because it generates electricity with photovoltaic cells, they only require UV light to start pumping out free energy. Amazon sells it for the most competitive price, providing all the accessories in one kit.

Skeptical somewhat, the video didn't show the battery indicator on the laptop to show how much of a charge the laptop was getting. Couldnt see what the light indicators were for the most part. Does the solar panel take a charge and send it to the laptop at the same time, or do you have to do one at a time, let the solar panel take the charge and then the consumer hits a switch to activate powering the laptop from the solar panel?
Solar is the way to go. We have a VW camper and solar keeps us off the grid.
I never knew that such a thing existed. It is going right on my Christmas list.
Nice information. Never knew you could power up your laptop using solar power. Thanks for sharing.
I love this idea - photocells in your laptop. This actually has already happened for laptops going to Rwanda. http://www.buildingtalk.com/news/sla/sla112.html Wonder when it will be commonplace for us.
Why not build the solar cells into the laptop or even design a solar cell cover to fit any laptop? Need to charge your laptop? Just put it in the sun. Great idea!
We are highly interested in your solar power computer laptops. Please, send the concessional price for a large quantity. We want you to send a sample and the price.
