Dynamo Solar Power!

There are a lot of Solar Products Companies out there and we like to think we carry a few of the very best on the market. We take turns talking about PowerFilm Solar, SolarLand, Wagan, and the newly re-marketed Global Solar now P3Solar.

Today I want to target P3Solar’s newest addition to the portable solar world, the Dynamo Plus & the Dynamo AC 600. The choice of the hard and soft cases depending for the Dynamo AC 600 is great, whether professionally out in the field for remote power at job sites or on a personal level for camping, RV-ing, emergency situations, cabin retreats, survival kits, etc. The possibilities are endless.

The Dynamo Plus provides a lightweight portable battery pack with an integrated P3Solar 25 watt folding solar panel that is being used by the U.S. Military. The battery pack has a built in vehicle jump start capability and can power most electronic devices including; cell phones, smartphones, tablets, notebook computers, satellite communications equipment and much more.

The Dynamo AC 600 provides a lightweight portable high capacity 12V battery pack with 600 watt pure-sine wave invertor and maximum power point tracking (MPPT) solar charge controller available in both a hard and soft case.

The Dynamo 600 AC can be used in many situations including; Emergency Response, Field service, Un-attended Remote Sensing, Remote Welding, and Overland Exploration. These and other activities need to operate essential appliances such as refrigerators, power tools, LED lights, laptop computers, sat and smartphones, and handheld radios. The Dynamo AC 600 can help accomplish this and much more

P3Solar Announcement of the Dynamo Plus:

May 2015 – P3Solar announces a new Portable Power Pack with Immediate Availability! The Dynamo Plus provides a lightweight portable battery pack with an integrated P3Solar 25 watt folding solar panel that is being used by the U.S. Military. The battery pack has a built in vehicle jump start capability and can power most electronic devices including; cell phones, smartphones, tablets, notebook computers, satellite communications equipment and much more…

Jim Kimbrough, President of P3Solar stated, “We are very excited about the launch of the new Dynamo Plus. We consider this a personal power generating system that is self-sustaining and is lightweight and portable for power on the go. The entire kit weighs about 4lbs and with the custom carrying case makes for a compact design that is easy to pack and carry. This system is very functional in that the battery can be charged from solar, an 110V electrical outlet, or from a vehicle, all at about the same rate. I keep this system in my car in case of an emergency jump start situation, take on trips to power my smartphone and laptop, and while hiking to charge my gear off the folding solar panel.”

How are you spending your July 4th Holiday? We hope you are spending it enjoying the outdoors and nature! It is a beautiful time of year to get to the beach, float a river, do a little kayaking and camping.
Whatever your plans are please don't forget to be prepared and in style with portable solar power to keep you informed, up to date, charged, and in music too.
It can light your tent, run your MP3 player, charger your tablet and make sure your phone is always ready to take that Instagram picture.
You will be the envy of the campground with all your devices charged and ready to go, your music adding to the night-time ambiance, the super cool lights around your little camp tent and an electric coffee pot making coffee at sunrise in the morning.

Happy July 4th everyone! Enjoy your adventure and visit us for your own personal portable solar charger!

Getting Ready for Your Summer Bucket List, Be Prepared!

Make sure you are prepared for your summer "bucket list" for hiking and photography in some of California's amazing parks and beaches!

Don't leave home without your personal portable solar charger! It will ensure you have charged batteries for your camera, GPS, hiking music, and can charge while attached to your backpack, on a blanket at the beach or while picnicking at the scenic spot of your choice!
Visit www.Californiapc.com for the right one for you! Free shipping on select solar products and fast, friendly sales to help you with all your needs and questions! 

Here we are using a fold up Solarland panel that folds right up into an aluminum case, quick and super easy set up and storage!

  Summer is just around the corner and it's time to take advantage of all that warm weather and sunshine! We at www.CaliforniaPC.com are making our "bucket lists" for the summer & fall of 2015.
There has already been an off the grid spring trip to Arizona pictured above. The weather was fabulous and we kept our trailer lit up with solar panels and our campfire songs going with charged batteries for our laptop or Mp3 device. And since we used solar powered products to run or charge our devices we were the envy of the campground since we produced no smelly generator fumes or noise! 

Charging smart phone directly from the PowerFilm fold-able solar charger.

  We combined different solar products to get the most out of our experience. We fit the product for the job so we were off the grid but completely comfortable and in touch if necessary. You can run lights, charge camera batteries,  GPS, iPod, Kindle, iPad, laptops, headlamps, lamps for trailer, outdoor lights, electric coffee pot, electric cooler and so much more.

Here we are using a PowerFilm F16-3600 to charge a Sherpa 50 to use to plug our laptop or lights into later for power. 

Here I am using a PowerFilm fold-able and a Sherpa 50 during a power outage to still use my laptop and work.

  If you noticed in the above caption I was able to use my solar charger setup during a power outage to continue to work on my laptop. It was great to be the only one on the block with power to work and have some music, and if your smart phone has a hotspot like mine, then you can activate it and still have internet access on your laptop or your android device. 

  Although we talk about portable solar power for camping, hiking, travel adventure and remote cabins or camps, it is not only for that, this is a fantastic set up to have if you live in an area that has summer storms and you often lose power. I use mine at least once a week even for just working in the yard and wanting to have music without having to plug into power that I have to pay for. 

We would love to hear from you and find out what you would use your portable solar power for, or what you are already using it for! Be creative and take advantage of the power of the sun!
