NEW PRODUCT! Rugged, durable, and rigid. The Boulder 50 Solar Panel is built with strong tempered glass and an aluminum frame with added corner protection for temporary or permanent installation. Equipped with an integrated kickstand to help get optimal angle to the sun. Use with a Goal Zero portable power pack or portable power station to charge your gear day or night.\n\nDurable Connectors\n\nFeatures Goal Zero’s 8mm connector to directly charge Sherpa Power Packs and Goal Zero Yeti Portable Power Stations.\n\nLightweight, Rugged Design\n\nBuilt with a lightweight, durable aluminum frame and tempered glass. Great panels for semi-permanent or permanent installations.\n\nIntegrated Kickstand\nand Corner Protection\n\nCollapsible kickstands mean no more leaning your Boulder Solar Panel against a rock, tree, or tent. Strong rubber corner protection leaves no sharp edges to catch.\n\nHOW SOLAR WORKS\n\nWe took solar power from stationary to portable, from rooftops to backpacks. Powering your phone, headlamp, camera or whatever essential gear is in your kit from the sun is a reality. It’s a little surreal, opening a solar panel, plugging in a phone, and watching as it starts to charge...\n\nThe science behind solar is powerfully interesting:\n\nThe Solar Power House\n\nNuclear fusion at the sun’s core creates energy, released in the form of light. The sun’s light takes an 8½ minute trip to the earth – even though we’re 93 million miles apart.\n\nHerding the Electron Flow\n\nPathways created in the solar panels harness moving electrons, acting like a waterslide and forcing the energy where you want it.\n\nSolar Panels= Electron Playgrounds\n\nSolar panels contain two layers of carefully grown silicon slices with a uniform pathway in between. Energetic electrons in the negatively charged top layer are itching to jump to the positively charged bottom; all they need is a little push in the right direction.\n\nPlugging In\n\nAn open solar panel is generating quite a bit of energy; the key is to harness that power and put it to good use. Placing a battery in the middle of the electron waterslide allows you to collect and store energy – which charges your battery.\n\nSolar Panels Absorb the Sun's Energy\n\nThink of it like solar billiards. Visible and invisible light from the sun hits the top-layer electrons like a cue ball, and gives them the push they need to break loose and race toward the bottom layer, creating a current as they move.
