will be available..


i bought some cheapies from buy and queue and i should
have just set fire to a tenner and saved the journey,i dont mind
forking out for some good quality as it is a lot easier than laying
cable etc,thanks folks



Well that goes for solar just about anything.

If you are cruising in the carribean, maybe there is enough to charge

couple of watts a square meter if you are lucky.
