My latest invention:
Solar Powered Portable Battery charging stations. Think wheelbarrow sized bank of batteries on a cart w/ one or two 2X2 solar panels. It would have a stand so you can point at the morning or afternoon sun. After a hurricane your could roll out a couple of these suckers and provide power for , well whatever devices that could make use of this slow trickle of electricity. They would charge the batteries during the day for providing night time power.
Pros: no fuel needs. quiet. cheap to run.
Cons: you'd probably need bunches of them to powere your AC or fridge. Not so good at night. weight of batteries.
