Could A Solar Power Battery Pack Fit In Your Fanny Pack One Day?

A solar power battery pack could not fit in your fanny pack. But in the years to come, fitting your solar power battery pack into your fanny pack could hopefully become possible.

Try A Back Pack Instead

Although you can’t fit a solar power battery pack in your pocket, purse of bum bag, you can fit one inside of a back pack (rucksack).  They cost about $200 (US) and often are called portable solar power battery packs.  One company that makes this kind of solar power battery pack is RadioLabs.  You can find them at camping, boating and RV supply shops.

What are you carrying, exactly?  You are basically carrying what look like normal batteries, flexible solar power panels and connectors, all inside of a case that looks just like any regular back pack.  RadioLabs’ version can generate up to 16 amps, which is enough to power a laptop for a couple of hours.

16 amps of sounds could be considered low voltage. There have been attempt to increase higher voltage solar power battery packs however, they almost always end up being faulty and is prone to damage. Increasing the voltage of your amps could pose danger to your life therefore it is advisable to keep it in the low.
Need Your Music?

Perhaps you are stranded on a desert island, alone with only your iPod and a solar power battery pack.  You wouldn’t have to worry about never having your music is you have a Noon Solar shoulder bag.  The outside of the bag is covered in flexible solar panels that charge up your iPod, which is nesting comfortably inside of the bag.  It takes at least six hours to fully recharge your iPod, longer on cloudy days.

But what else do you have to do on a desert island?  You can wait.  For those who can’t live in the island paradise, Noon Solar recommends that they stick the bag in a sunny spot for your work day so you can listen to your tunes when you ride public transportation home.

You do take public transportation whenever you can, don’t you?  Remember – going green is more than just a fashion statement.  And you can stick that in your fanny pack.
