Brunton SolarRoll Solar Panel

June 30, 2009

Check the Brunton website for these things, and you'll see that they claim the 7.5 or 15 can charge a laptop by itself. However, the rolls should act like any other battery, in that you can increase voltage by connecting them in series, or amperage by connecting them in parallel - i.e. two of the 3.4s should yield 11 volts DC at .5 amps or 1 amp at 5.5 VDC. You need to look at your power adapter and do the math to figure out what you'd need. If you're going to try to connect two $200 rolls together, you should really do some research into circuits first, if you don't already know what you are doing.

Keep in mind, as these actually AREN'T any other battery, the standard disclaimer of "SHOULD" doesn't mean that it will. Tinker at your own risk and don't blame me if you loose your eyebrows and your solar roll.

So what ARE you doing with a laptop on the trail?

Terrific for the Plus-Size Outdoors type

Eagles Nest Outfitters SingleNest Hammock

Eagles Nest Outfitters SingleNest Hammock

Rating for this product: 5 June 15, 2009

I'm 6'5" and usually brush 270lbs. This was one of the few hammocks I could find that had a weight rating over 250lbs, and didn't have horrible reviews. I was skeptical at first, but after I took mine camping I went back online and bought the whole "One-Link" system. This hammock not only held my big 'ol butt up in the air (after some creaks and groans from the suspension system settling), but was more than long enough for me to relax comfortably with a camp pillow. I stayed in it for over 4 hours, rocking and reading, and never felt like I was going to get dropped. The only downfall to this hammock is that the fabric isn't wind-proof, so for a cool windy day you might want to lay a blanket between you and the hammock. Customer service at Backcountry and ENO's website are both fantastic as well.
