Solar Energy Rolls Are A Convenient Way To Have Power With You On The Go
6 Comments By Eran Abramson on March 9th, 2008 in Accessories
Have you ever been camping or traveling, when your camera, mp3 player, or cellphone died? Have you ever had to carry extra batteries with you on a long trip, burdened by the weight, hassle and inconvenience?
The Solar Rolls by Brunton are convenient rolled up, flexible solar power panels that may be taken with you anywhere.
Instead of lugging on extra devices, portable chargers, or batteries, so you have power with you when you go on a trek or a day out in nature, these rolls can easily fit in your backpack, knapsack or luggage without adding on much weight.
Just imagine how nice it would be to go anywhere in the world, and not have to worry about power for your gadgets? How about a picnic and while spreading the blanket on the ground, also spread a solar roll to give you power for a laptop, radio, compact television, or even a slim game console?
These solar rolls comes in 4.5, 9 and 14 inch sizes and cost $220, $352, and $484 respectively. Although they are more expensive than regular batteries, the portability and comfort outweigh the expense.

Absolutely fantastic! As the queen of “my cellphones dying”, I could definitely do with one of those. I guess I’ll have to wait for the price to go down….

Hi Geegee, good to see you again.
Yes, the price is a bit expensive, but for major photographers and others, it may be worth it in order to replace the heavy batteries and devices.

Hey Shyguy,
It is a tad pricey for me as well at the moment, but hopefully I will have a few in the near future.
