Hi there.I hope this is the right forum. Id just like to know if anyone knows of a portable solar powered plug socket device. A bit like the solarpod but without the giant solar panels as their not ideal if travelling! Is there such a product? I have seen someone posted roll up portable solar panels which look good. Has anyone used them and do you get much power from them? Thanks in advance!

For some things in life, size is important, no matter what the girlfriend says...

It would be better to start with what you want to power & for how long & then look at how to provide that level of energy.

To be honest if its going to need a socket for your standard plug then the panel area is going to be big.
