The Benefits Of Having Portable Solar Energy For Emergency Preparedness

What is the value of using solar panels and battery chargers?

The benefits of solar panels and battery chargers are that you can charge your batteries, cell phone IPod, and computer when grid electricity is unavailable. This would be particularly useful in areas affected by hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, snow storms, ice storms as well as when camping and at construction sites.

It seems that at least twice a year during a snow storm someone has to use their cell phone from a mountaintop to call for assistance. Keeping the battery on the phone charged is imperative in this situation.
Even if you never go outdoors have you ever lost power for an extended period of time? New Hampshire just went through an ice storm that came on December 12th, 2008, and some people in our state on December 24th, 2008 still had no power. Hurricanes have been known to take out power from the grid for months. After all of these storms the sun still shines to power solar panels, and the clean up from them always requires power to accomplish the task.

Since the panels allow for laptop computers to be kept charged, insurance claims and other paperwork may be filed quicker.

A portable roll up solar panel is surprisingly light and easy to carry. It should be a part of all emergency kits.

What is the value of being able to get help when you need it? The sky is the limit
