Re: solar battery charging (was recording gear

ICP, manufacturer of the flexible solar
panels previously mentioned, has ceased
production of these models.  The source
on eBay seems to be the end of the line.

A second company manufacturing flexible
solar panels is Iowa Thin Flim Technologies.
They describe the panels at this web site:

http://www.powerfilmsolar.com/

In addition to panels flexible enough to
roll up, Power Film Solar has a foldable
product composed of small sections of
solar panel sewn into a fabric backing
and wired together like one big panel.

The prices I have found online for the
Power Film Solar products are a lot higher
than the eBay source described earlier. It
might be worth it to buy a product that has
a warranty from a company that is still
making the panels.
