Solar panel hire (Sydney)
« on: September 11, 2013, 08:19:58 PM »
Does anyone know of a Solar panel hire place in Sydney that hires portable/folding panels and the regs?

Want to hire a panel and regulator 80 - 160W to test it out the technology, before buying. There is plenty of other camping gear for hire, just can't find solar panels.

Maybe they are too fragile for the hire market?

Not a bad idea, ideal for the once or twice a year camper.

Goose, I've got a spare set of 100W panels here that I'll probably sell, you can give them a try if you like.

I would have thought solar stuff was cheap enough now to buy your own.
Far simpler than stuffing around hiring........
