Earthtech Portable Power Kit
We’ve covered dozens of solar powered gadget chargers in the past, all charging your popular gadgets through USB cables or other special cable. So far however, we haven’t seen a solution to provide an actual outlet.
The Earthtech Portable Power Kit is marketed as a gree way to charge your laptop, and it does do a great job of this. A fully charged battery will run a 25w laptop for about 6 hours.
It’s much more than just a laptop charger however. It provides both a 12V DC outlet, and a 115V AC outlet for charging any other device or appliance. TV, Phone, Computer, Radio, etc. All can be powered by the battery.
Here’s a list of examples of operating times when running off battery power:
Approximate Operating Times for 115 Volt Products:
- Cordless Telephone (5 Watts): 40 Hours Operating Time
- Home Security System (5 Watts): 40 Hours Operating Time
- Clock Radio (8 Watts): 20 Hours Operating Time
- Portable Stereo (10 Watts): 15 Hours Operating Time
- Flourescent Work Light (14 Watts): 12 Hours Operating Time
- 5” Color TV (20 Watts): 8 Hours Operating Time
- Laptop Computer (25 Watts): 6 Hours Operating Time
- Table Lamp (40 Watts): 3.5 Hours Operating Time
Approximate Operating Times for 12 Volt DC Products:

Pretty impressive times!
This can be incredibly valuable for emergencies, or just a small way to offset some of your electricity usage to a more green source.
