The theme of gardens becoming outdoor rooms is now old hat.Though it is surprising how long it has taken designers to bring workstations outdoors. At some level out=leisure.But a clever solar power table is sign of new thinking and changes to come:
seen in gizmo:
SunTable:
a photovoltaic solar-power generating table designed to juice up your
gadgets in an eco-friendly style. And now the table's available for
purchase. The stainless steel and teak production version charges up in
about four hours of bright sun exposure (there's a hinge so you can
angle it properly if you need to) and delivers about four hours of 12V
after that. It comes with a built-in inverter, so it has regular power
sockets that you can plug your gadgets into, and is designed to be
weatherproof, easy to disassemble and even recycle. That's about it:
it's a table with a solar generator built in... doesn't get much simpler than that! Oh—it does cost $2,200, so it's most likely to appeal to really rich eco-warriors
