Encyclopedia
The solar notebook is a laptop with powerful batteries that are recharged by solar panel attached to the notebook.

Features

Unlike regular laptops, some models of solar notebooks come with a flap-like structure which functions as a solar panel and can be removed if required. This generates electricity required to charge its batteries. It can be used for communication purposes from anywhere on Earth as it has several features like Internet access, GPS and satellite phones. Other models feature external solar modules connected to the laptop and solar keyboard chargers, where the keyboard looks like a solar sheet with the outline of a keyboard imprinted on it.
