The new solar-powered product by Solis Energy can run small 12 volt "non-critical" electronics in remote locations or anywhere grid power isn't available. All that's required is an electronic device with a car power adaptor (cigarette lighter interface) and the sun. At work, the Power HotSpot™ can recharge tools, notebooks and cell phones, or provide power to inverters for AC power. At home, it can power a shed or gazebo light, an aerator or fountain. And for recreation, the Power HotSpot™ brings convenience to the campsite, from re-charging lights to continuous play for radios and iPods to running boat aerators and re-recharging batteries on a dock.
