I got Sunshine in a Bag.

Take 1.5kVA of AC 120 and DC 5V for 1.7kWh with you in the time of need or for your pleasures in a sleek portable luggage style hard case. Fully recharge it with portable solar panels or an AC outlet in 3-4 hours. Does this sound like something this industry needs or could use? Please let me know you thoughts, questions, or marketing ideas. Lets network, collaborate and make this world a better place.

Good idea but actually I don't know who might be interested in a heavy wheeled off-grid inverter with batteries

Hi Babak, The target markets are emergency services (first responders), entertainment industry (lighting), government Homeland security), medical (hospitals), recreational (RV dealers) Yes this is a new product introduced originally by Sharp in late 2011 but ours is actually 1/2 the weight. In Japan they are used in the office environment because the Power is not stable currently.

You dont want to look inside as the sun may hurt your eyes. SHARP developed the first 1kWh battery module for electricity storage without cooling fan~ Nikkei Energy & Ecology, November 2012. SHARP Free convection cooling Capacity: 1kWh 21kg Dim: 465 x 439 x 300 mmAC charging: 10hr PV charging: 14hr Output: 3 x 100AC, 2 x 5V USB. Ours has almost double the power charges 6 hours faster with a sleeker design.

Yes, no problem. Can I ask what is it your are looking to see? If you have technical questions please ask it this forum so all can learn and contribute to the discussion. Inside of the BPS consists of our Large Format Lithium Iron-Phosphate cells (BSS) along with our Advanced Battery Management System (BMS) to enhance performace, prolong life, and warrant safety. The BSS can be used to easily create large battery system for diverse industrial applications. The 12V building blocks can be configured to 154V battery branch for large systems and up to 450V with a different model. The BSS applications Domestic Back up, UPS, Grid Storage, Photovoltaic, Wind and Power Station, Communication Station, LED Lighting, LEV's and other industrial drives.

In a place like North Korea, with a notoriously unreliable grid, this could be quite popular.

In more developed countries, this seems quite large. If I was to offer a suggestion -make a smaller package that one can daisy chain.
