Solar ChumAlong personal solar tracking deviceCan’t seem to get enough sun for your gadgets? If only that great big fiery ball in the sky would stay still. It would make it so much easier for you to harness those rays. That ain’t gonna happen, but here’s the next best thing.

The Solar ChumAlong solar tracking system is a solar charging panel that automatically tracks the sun just like those expensive arrays you see in movies. But this one is portable and lightweight, so you can always have power. The solar panel is always facing the sun so you’ll always be able to juice up your gadgets.

Being able to always get the sunlight will cost you though. $399.00 complete with a 5W solar panel.

    Nice gadget, but it looks far too flimsy to be used in anything near rugged conditions. What’s it’s weight, and what about the quality of the build?

  2. liani widjaja Says:

    $399 for this? I don’t think so. If you look up at amazon, you’ll find solar panel kits below that price.

  3. Personal Solar Panels Says:

    I don’t know about this… It’s looks pretty cool, but, I would be worried if this solar gadget can hold up to strenuous hikes. If it can I would be the first one to buy one. Have to hear more reviews about this… Bookmarked your site.

  5. Ray Boreham Says:

    Although it looks and sounds like a nice idea, no mention is made of its dimensions, as it looks a bit bulky. There are plenty of portable solar device charging options out there that can do the same job as this, and that look a whole lot more sleek and sophisticated. Granted, they don’t offer a tracking option, but will still do the job nicely - and for a whole lot less.

  6. John Deer Says:

    What with the device? what does it do? Why spend $399 on something like this. If I have that kind money to spend on solar energy. I would spend construct solar cell for my utility house.

  7. Phil | Best Air Conditioner Reviews Says:

    This is an interesting gizmo, but I wouldn’t take this many places as it looks a little flimsy. I wonder if the panel could be replaced with a higher wattage panel or even wired to an array purchased separately. Ensuring the proper angle of the panel is very helpful for better energy conversion and that’s basically the tech you’re paying for here. That said, the panel definitely needs some upgrading.
