short term use of a solar kit

Post by firstonlastoff »

Hey all camper folks who have used solar recharge kits.

I would like a solar kit to recharge my laptop (85 W minimum required), and other smaller electronic items. (I don't intend to have any other power requirements, but of course, I could go and buy one of those ridiculously expensive portable DC fridge/freezer, a blender, etc.)

My dilemma is that I only really need this for a month. Quite pricey for few electrons going into a rechargeable battery over the time period of a month!

Has anyone purchased a solar kit, and then resold it, and if so, was the selling easy and quick? Alternatively, has anyone rented their kit out or know of a rental site locally (ideally lower Fraser Valley).
