Question about solar power, UK only please?

We Answered:

This seems a minefield of an area and someone did a quote for me that come out at £6.5k.
He made claims that my gas bill would be reduced by 60%, I then watched a program on tv that showed these claims are way of the mark and fitting a system shold cost no more than 3k from a reputable company, dont reply to any leaflets through the door, and if any company says that do you and your partner must be there for the quote it is just a high pressure sale technique
Good luck

Does anyone know of a uk stockist of the WOOD EZ SOLAR TENT(BUILT IN SOLAR PANELS)?

We Answered:

The Woods Solar Powered EZ-Tent is manufactured by Woods Canada, and they only sell their products through Canadian Tire. http://www.woodscanada.com/_Messages/Msg…

This guy is selling two on eBay Australia. They don't say they'll post to UK, but you could ask. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Woods-Solar-Power…

I might also suggest you could purchase a outdoor adventure type solar panel, attach your own LED light rope (very cheap) if you want, and charge any other battery powered device as well. And you could place any of these Brunton chargers anywhere to catch the sun, on a rock, on a table, on the top of your backpack. Here's the UK dealer for Brunton: http://www.g-comm.co.uk/brunton.htm
