SolarGorilla charges your laptop with solar
Charge up your laptop anywhere on the go with the SolarGorilla. It will cost you $440 though! But if you need the power on your safari vacation this gadget will do the trick. You can use it to charge the rest of your gadgets like mobile phones, iPods and more.
The SolarGorilla is tough, water resistant and can be used suspended on a car or tent for outdoor use. It comes with a USB socket for your laptop recharges.
The Solar Gorilla has already been used in the field by aid agencies, emergency services, the military and adventurers. It has been used in the rugged outbacks of Africa, Australia, and Afghanistan.
Its available through a British Reseller - PowerTraveller.

I found the Solar Gorilla at earthtechproducts.com for $249.85
December 23rd, 2008 at 9:02 am |
I was going to say it’s a bit pricy, but $249.85 sounds a bit more reasonable

This is a very good thing.
December 28th, 2008 at 10:14 am |
IMO, it is quite useless. The only situation you can use it is when you’re having picnic.
December 30th, 2008 at 10:00 pm |
Well the lower price sounds better, I can’t wait until this kind of stuff is more readily available, and maybe even less bulky. Thanks for the post and the $$ research.

I used paperjam way back, i think now they are trying to get back the old users. Now they seem to pay properly.

I always wondered what happened to duct tape after its been disposed of. Now I can choose one that’s meant to degrade after use.

SolarGorrila is a great help to other people who always bring their laptop. I need to admit that it cost too much but worth it.right?

I used a paperjam ages ago, they are cool I dont think I would buy another one though or use it now

What a brilliant idea. Anything that uses natural energy resources when it comes to technology is a good thing in my book.
January 14th, 2009 at 6:11 pm |
Interesting idea, pretty expensive though! And it looks kind of big. I love the thought behind it. Hopefully it will get smaller as technology improves.
January 15th, 2009 at 3:54 pm |
This is one of the coolest things I have seen. I would love to have this on my many adventures where my cell phone dies. It would be great to be able to know I have a source of power for my electronics. I might have to save up for this one. Thanks for sharing.
January 19th, 2009 at 6:26 am |
wow, this is best thing that has happened , a very nice product released which is damn useful for all the system users.should be well appreciated for the amazing idea and the result. though it seems pretty expensive i think wouvd difinitely worth to lot of people and can afford it.thanks for the post.
January 22nd, 2009 at 11:39 pm |
Very Nice article, digg it!
January 23rd, 2009 at 9:33 pm |
Price is pretty high for alternative power source. But, I like the idea. Going green needs to be less expensive though.
January 25th, 2009 at 6:25 am |
Looks great and I could certainly do with one to keep my laptop charged up during summer holidays. It would be good if it was a little cheaper though.
January 28th, 2009 at 9:49 pm |
This is sooo cool! it seems everyone including bmw and other companies are going green.

We have solar lights here installed, a solar flash light and eco charger would be the best thing to add to my collection!
February 4th, 2009 at 8:10 am |
I think, this Solar Gorilla is an interesting thing. It’s great that such devices are invented
February 4th, 2009 at 8:21 am |
Thanks for your valuable information. Its very good, but it would be better if you had given the details of the internet courses which would be of great help.
February 4th, 2009 at 8:24 am |
Thanks for the tips. I am interested in this and will begin to try it out.
February 5th, 2009 at 7:16 am |
wow this is a very wonderful thing.
February 13th, 2009 at 6:17 pm |
Wow, excellent idea, although I doubt I will use it anytime soon. Anyway, thanks for the post
February 15th, 2009 at 4:50 am |
God, the price tag is a bit steep. I got mine as a free sample from a friend who manufactures solar and wind powered products, but his price tag is a fraction of that.
February 18th, 2009 at 3:30 am |
It’s a good post to read with, it’s really worthwhile coming on your page keep it up.
February 19th, 2009 at 12:13 am |
I like to have one. It saves my electricity bill. =)
February 20th, 2009 at 5:14 am |
I think it’s good. Just a bit pricey for me.
February 20th, 2009 at 5:44 pm |
Nice post!!

February 21st, 2009 at 12:32 pm |
Well, that should be a great way to save some electricity. However, I don’t think that you will be able to use it fully indoors though. But I do agree if you’re so into outdoor adventure, you will definitely have more use for it. But who would want to bring a laptop while camping anyway?

I think the Solar Gorilla is finally available in the U.S. now as I’ve seen it on sale at a couple of web stores(Solar Gorilla). Even though these don’t come with a battery source to store a charge, it’s very heartening to see the options as far as alternative energy chargers grow. With a little bit of market traction, these solar chargers will begin to retail for next to nothing — and really, at a price of $280, (which is what it’s on sale for at Ecogeekliving.com) I’m sure they’re well worth their price over the course of the product lifetime.
February 23rd, 2009 at 12:00 pm |
Wow..what a nice way to charge computer batteries— Solar power. A little heavy on the pocket though. But oh well. If I have the money then why not?
February 24th, 2009 at 7:33 pm |
What a cool invention! Why didn’t I think of that. It is a little costly and probably not great for everyday use but it is a step in the right direction. Nice find!
February 25th, 2009 at 9:29 am |
Cool, I’ve just read a blog that writes about solar powered coking and ovens..lol

Great Technology for great lovers of Laptops.This is mainly useful for SEO people as well as Software People.
February 27th, 2009 at 7:46 pm |
Wow! That is a great invention.
March 1st, 2009 at 1:00 pm |
Ha! I thought this was a USB powered George Foreman grill when I looked at the picture! What a great idea! Obviously the USB port will let me plug in any device with a USB charger, including my phone and Bluetooth earpiece. Is the manufacturer offering any discount vouchers? While I have been in some remote areas and needed to charge my laptop, the price does seem high to me. Discount codes would go a long way to having one of these chargers become part of my standard travel gear. I am just looking for an excuse to get one.

think that in their marketing minds, if they’ve gotten you to their site, they are happy. To them, why take the time to remove or flag items if they have the potential to bring you to their online store, where you might find a replacement for the out-of-stock item.
March 8th, 2009 at 2:21 pm |
Oh this is a very nice thing and I want to have one for me.

This is definitely a very interesting, and useful gadget. However, the price is really too much. I hope they are able to reduce the price drastically. That would get them lots of customers, and they can reap economies of scale.
March 18th, 2009 at 8:04 am |
This is very good news. From this we can save a lot of power. Today only i got to know about this. Thanks a lot….

Nice product for those who have electricity problem, like village.
April 1st, 2009 at 8:29 pm |
Wow,
I just found this site and have to comment on this!
In my opinion being conscious about the environment and shopping (aka consuming) are quite contradictory. solar powered charges is terrible for the environment. It is a gadget that will not get much use and will end up in a landfill. Besides making this stuff takes far more energy than it will ever save.
Makes me sad…

Although i didn’t like the idea of audio learning.
I would like to take out my first step to try it
Will post my reviews soon
April 18th, 2009 at 10:35 pm |
Whoa, very cool! It looks a lot smaller and more compact than the other solar chargers I’ve seen out there. Lots of them are big and bulky and definitely anything but travel sized.
A little pricey but if you work on the road like I do, it sure seems like it would be handy.
April 20th, 2009 at 6:49 pm |
Wow, that does look pretty cool. My laptop runs out of battery so quickly, I can hardly get anything done when outside or away from a plug. Looks useful, but a tad expensive.
April 28th, 2009 at 9:06 am |
Absolutely amazing! Wish i can own one!
May 7th, 2009 at 12:53 am |
he weaknesses is the retail price is a little bit expensive.

June 14th, 2009 at 3:51 pm |
This is very cool, we have a freeloader which is similar but smaller which we use for charging the mobiles an i-pod, this will be helpfull for when the laptop goes flat if your not near a plug
June 18th, 2009 at 6:09 am |
So far, it doesn’t look like anyone has hit the perfect balance of affordability, power output and portability with these devices. This Gorilla looks like it’s aimed at the market that is less price sensitive. I hope they do OK in this economic climate.
I would love to see companies market laptops based on their power consumption. My wife bought an Aspire netbook recently and I was amazed at what it could do while sucking less than half the juice of a typical laptop.
