Forum user BenNelson is working with a friend of his on a Kickstarter campaign for waterproof solar USB charger. This is a high output (8-16W) very rugged solar USB charger made for all environments. Check out the video on their page, they torture this thing and it still works. He has generously offered a free solar charger to one of you guys in return for a little publicity here on the website. We figured you guys wouldn't mind that at all! :)

So, if you're interested in one of these solar chargers, please post below. In two weeks, we'll randomly select one of your names and you'll get your solar charger.

Also, don't forget to check out the kickstarter page. They got a lot of other goodies that come with the panels too.

OK

Ok too.

Twist my arm! Ouch ... okay, I'll post.

I have been looking for a "real" solar charger - it looks good.

I'll take it!

Should look way better on Ron Burgundy than my current ghetto solar set-up!

Looks like a great system. I'm in.

I'm in :) Thanks a lot guys!

Is this a trick? Of course I''m in.

Except for the link causing my browser to hang... But consider me a potential customer.

Sounds good

I'm in.

Hello Hello Hello!

That looks pretty slick, I'm in.

How much do they plan to sell these for once manufacturing begins?

this is awesome! Very well thought out.

count me in tooooooo.

Can I win? Please? I probably can't. I'm still posting this.

I'd put that behind my Lexan UGB and park towards the sun :)
(subbed and contending ;))

May need one of these: http://www.ebay.nl/itm/Solar-Charger...-/230952649860

Cool idea. Never thought you could charge underwater. Thanks for the opportunity!

count me in .. I never win

Really well thought out product. I'd love to give it a try!

Interesting.

Hey Everybody, thanks for your support!

I know that so many of you are really into Solar Power and other renewable energy, and we wanted to see about getting a little something out to you guys.

My friend, Josh, and I have been doing a lot of work creating a neat solar energy product. When we aren't doing that, we are at a lot of teaching conferences, renewable energy fairs, and educational events, promoting renewable energy and getting kids to learn all about it.

Any profits from the projects all go right back into getting info and inspiration out there!

What would really help us is if you can help spread the Solar Panel Kickstarter Campaign on your social networks! If you can share the link https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...-solar-charger

On Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and whatever else you are on, we would love it. Like, Share, Friend, Tweet, just help get the word out there. (It may also help you win the solar panel.... hint hint....)

We are real people, in the real world, trying both to do good and squeak by a living as well.

For your entertainment, here's some solar panel testing we did with a bowling ball.

We also did a little experimenting on solar panels with shotguns....

Enjoy, and please help spread the word.

Also, for those who were wondering what prices would be AFTER the Kickstarter campaign. They are most likely to be about what the pledge levels are for the "NON-Early Bird" products.

However, the more orders we can get through in Kickstarter will allow us to manufacture more at once, and hopefully give us a price break. Theoretically, the more people who help support the Kickstarter, the lower we can keep prices later.

If you CAN pledge in the Kickstarter campaign, please do.

Thanks again.

Also: we're running the same contest on EcoRenovator, so if you want 2 chances to win, head over there as well and pipe up.

I'd say the odds are already excellent. Twice as excellent if you're in to win on both sites.

Wow. looks good, that!

i don't think it was the shooting but the way it was thrown. good thing no one was planning on eating them for dinner or the zombies were attacking.

I don't think Josh's shirt is that bad.

I was out and about yesterday and needed to charge my phone. Ironically, I couldn't charge my phone from my (newish) electric motorcycle.

Fortunately, I had my solar panel with, and it worked great, even with as cloudy of a day as it was! (Somebody else needed a charge, so I charged her phone too!)

Once again, if you can please help get the word out on this USB solar charger we would really appreciate it.
Please share! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...-solar-charger

Birdshot? I want to see how it handles buck.

Eh, what the hell--I'm in.

Did I mention the panel is waterproof?

Heck, you could go ice fishing with it. Look what I caught!

Does this count?

I guess I'm in.

Somebody on Kickstarter backed the "Buy Josh a Shirt" pledge.
We also promised to burn one of Josh's old plaid shirts, but I couldn't justify using fossil fuels to do it. So, we used the Solar Death Ray to light up the plaid instead.

Excellent :D I was hoping someone would pledge for that!

Sweeeeeeeet.

So, who won it?

how did I miss this?!?!

We haven't selected a winner... yet. I'll get to that sometime today. :)

Hope I made the cut off.
