1213.0. "Solar powered video" by HYDRA::SCHAFER (Mark Schafer, SPE MRO) Thu Apr 17 1997 16:31
Okay, it may not be a "consumer" product, but the morning paper ran an
article about hawks/eagles that nest in the Springfield MA area. In
the article, they mention a solar powered video camera that the local
cable company used to put these fowls on the public access channel.
Are these things useful for anything else? Too costly, perhaps?

| 1213.1 | Just a solar charger probably... | ASDG::SBILL | | Fri Apr 18 1997 09:04 | 6 |

I'm sure the CAMERA isn't anything special. They probably just hooked up an
ordinary video camera battery to a solar powered battery charger. "Solar powered
camera" sure does SOUND exotic and environmentally friendly though...
