Solar Power to Go!
Tired
of lugging heavy batteries up mountainsides but too in love with your energy-sucking gadgets to leave them at
home? Well, now you can stop worrying about all that extra weight. For just $399 you can pack in your own
solar power plant that weighs just 28 ounces. But
that’s not all folks! This waterproof flexible panel can roll up into a convenient tube and easily disappear into
your pack. When it comes time to charge up your laptop or satellite phone, just unroll it and watch in amazement
as it pumps out 14 watts of power.
Better bring along some extra batteries though, just in case the clouds roll in.

That is SO cool! I am totally about solar energy! I saw an intersting article here http://www.energyrefuge.com/archives/Solar_crystals.htm that says that solar crystals capacity have doubled!!! Pretty soon we will be carrying around solar batteries the size of iPods...
