there is a 'solar backpack' on the market now but it doesn't generate
enough power for a computer, 4 watts:

another company is putting out a similar solar backpack soon that has
more
solar cells and larger storage batteries.

hello, I have been thinking of whether it would be possible to set up solar panels to power a battery from which i could run a small amount (computer, monitors, soundcard and maybe one other thing, all on their own power supplies at the moment) of sound-making equipment in the evenings. So far all the sites i have found have been firing anti-nuclear-power spiel at me, without much info on how i could actually set such a system up, what kind of panels would be needed etc.. I live in southern england, not the sunniest of places, but i was thinking that maybe the battery could power up during most of the day, so that i might use the power entirely from the battery.

I was wondering if any microsounders have personal experience of
setting
up
such systems (on a
budget) or any pointers for how I could proceed, (do they need to be
licenced, or checked by
any safety authority) .   Any information or ideas would be greatly
appreciated.

thanks .
  Bobby Whelan
