Hey everyone,

I was thinking about trying to build my own portable solar generator.

I understand the benefits of building one, but what kinds of things can I realistically charge? Laptops, televisions, lamps?

Have any of you ever done a DIY solar generator project? Any advice? I'll be using a step-by-step guide that I found, and while it sees legitimate, I'm wondering if there's anything I might be missing.

Thanks!

There are many portable solar panels, specifically aimed at all manner of projects, from boats and caravans to mobile phones. You can order all the bits you need online, and there are many sites, showing how to........

Thanks Perry, I read through the guide and will be starting to build after the first of the year. We'll see how it goes...

Have you guys seen this:

Was hoping to get this in the Summer and try it out. Wondering if this is what you had found.

Sorry just realised that is the same product - brilliant - have you got it and do you think it's good?

Hello, teddychu,

I should say your plan is very ambition. First, you should find a suitable box for placment the battery, controller, and cables. Second, design the solar system according to your load (AC or DC) and the electricity consumpted per day and how long would you like the load to be working.

Following is the system I designed, hope it helps for you.
