OK, this is a shameless plug for my brothers company, www.eclipsesolargear.com. He patented a solar backpack, and messenger bag, camera bag, bike bag, tackle box (which is going to become my new kite repair kit), and a solar generator (large solar panel that tracks the sun and charges a large battery, that has an AC inverter and can power AC and DC loads.

I have a couple of these backpacks and keep them with me on the kite field to keep my phone and mp3 player charged. Works really well.

Thanks,

Ben

We have a 12v Ice Chest that plugs into a cigarette lighter.

I have always thought it would be fun to have an ice chest covered with solar cells that you would put out in the sun to make it cold.

Ben,

We have them and think they're a Great idea too! Know costs will come down only so much as production ramps up, but a brilliant idea!
