Solar Panelled Laptop Battery Charger

UCT Chemical Engineering Student, Sipho Mahlangu

My idea is to design a laptop that uses solar panels as a power source during the day. This will help to save energy. Most batteries become damaged when they are charged regularly, so this idea will also save batteries from being disposed, since a solar panel will act as a power source during the day, that will give a battery a long life to survive.
