Hi,
What kind of solar panel would I need to power a laptop for around 10-15 hours each day? I don't know anything about solar panels and don't know who to ask. I see that solar panels come in different watts, so how many watts would I need for a laptop? Any help would be greatly appreciated Very Happy

Hi Roxanne.
I'm sure someone will come up with a modest panel that in ideal conditions would power your laptop.
But personally and in a less than ideal world I would put the largest panel I could accommodate on the roof. I have a 130 watt and in bright summer sunlight it's recharges all my 3 leisure battery very well. But then there are the dull days when you will take more out than you put back in.

Ray.
