 As we stated earlier, Voltaic brand power banks are a good, reliable source of portable power for a Crowbox. Voltaic also offers solar power kits which include a solar panel and an 'always on' power bank. This setup should be perfect for a Crowbox but, as I said, we have not yet tested these ourselves. As we stated earlier, Voltaic brand power banks are a good, reliable source of portable power for a Crowbox.

 Since Crowbox power consumption is under 1/2 watt most of the time, our hope is that a 2W solar panel combined with a 6,400mAh power bank will run a Crowbox indefinitely on solar power during spring and summer in most locations. We will publish our observations in the [[http://groups.google.com/group/CrowBoxKit|Crowbox Google Group]], including accurate measurements on the practical output of this particular solar panel.  Since Crowbox power consumption is under 1/2 watt most of the time, our hope is that a 2W solar panel combined with a 6,400mAh power bank will run a Crowbox indefinitely on solar power during spring and summer in most locations.
