Joshua Said:

I want to run my laptop by solar energy? is there any circuit available which my friend could assemble locally?

We Answered:

YES.

You can buy solar laptop chargers outright or you can reverse engineer one based upon the specs of one of these commercial units. Brunton is a brand of solar panels that specializes in uses like this. You can even get a Brunton 26 Watt Solar Array on Amazon that is specifically designed for laptop charging.

The voltage for laptops is usually 12 volts which is pretty easy to generate its about matching the frequency and amps for your laptop and ensuring the feed is constant and clean.

Good luck

Eduardo Said:

have solar powered laptops come on the market yet?

We Answered:

no. first of all, solar power doesnt get alot of energy. You need alot of space and surface area to power enough power for the laptop . if you wanna power a laptop with a solar array, its gonna be BIG.

but i think there are solar powered chargers.. but they they awfully long to charge.
