Solar gorilla works with two photovoltaic solar panels that generate electricity when they are exposed to light. The two solar panels that generate the electric current are made of glass to greatly increase the performance plus it adds to the aesthetics of the unit. There is a green LED on the /mydiygreenenergy.com/portable-and-back-up-energy/the-new-real-time-solargorilla-solar-laptop-cell-phone-charger/”>SolarGorilla that indicates the strength of the current charge. The charge will be more intense when there is more light; it will work better. The solar panels are technically advanced to maintain dependable performance and ensure high quality electricity. The unit is also housed in a tough rubberized outer casing.
There is both bad news and great news if you are a Macbook Pro, Macbook Air, or Macbook user. Bad news: one item that we found was not included from the manufacture, unfortunately, is the Apple MagSafe Airline Adaptor. This costs around $60 when purchased separately. Great news: there are dealers that add the Magsafe Airline Adaptor in for FREE/at no extra charge to increase compatibility for an easy connection for Macs!
