Abstract
A portable solar power source is provided which will convert solar energy into electrical energy to provide electrical power to an array of devices normally accompanying those who enjoy being in outdoor areas or on rivers or lakes. The device is made to be portable by having wheels and a handle so that it may be pulled like a cart or wagon. The portable device of the present invention further includes one or more solar panels, which are deployed from a substantially horizontal position to a substantially vertical position with respect to the transport device. In the preferred embodiment the solar panels are double junction amorphous solar panels. Such panels have the greatest efficiency and produce electrical energy from light energy even if the solar panels are not in the direct sunlight.
