Imagine sitting on the beach, wanting to contact a friend. Unfortunately, found your mobile phone battery ran out of charge. Anker has a solution for such situations. At CES 2025, this innovative electronics company unveiled its portable solar umbrella.
Anker’s Solar Umbrella
Anker launched its first solar umbrella at the groundbreaking CES 2025. This solar umbrella is designed to power electronic devices, allowing you to charge coolers, laptops, and mobile phones while relaxing in the Bay Area or on the shore.
The sustainable and portable solar umbrella is a part of Anker’s Solix lineup. The Solix up includes energy-efficient products like portable power solutions and solar generators. This innovative mission is intended to power up home appliances during blackouts and emergencies.
There are many solar power umbrellas available out there in the market. But Anker’s Solar Umbrella stands out from the crowd with its unique quality – its use of perovskite cells. This innovative Solar Umbrella offers 30% better performance than conventional crystalline silicon solar cells in bright light and offers 2 times more efficiency in low light, says Anker.
