Community for those focused on sustainable travel. Our society's current levels of energy intensive and frequent travel are not compatible with life on a finite planet. We advocate for long-term slow travel to see the world, and low energy local travel to deeply experience your community. Green washing free zone.

The communities listed above are decentralized. Centralized instances are omitted as they go against the fedi purpose and it’s better to cultivate digital rights in the free world. That means instances that have a disproportionately large population or are centralized on Cloudflare are not listed.

How long does it take to charge using only its solar?
It has 60kWh of storage and 2kW when folded in and 4kW when not.
So that would be ~15 hours with the panels fully deployed? Honestly not bad for a mobile solar setup.
That would be 15 hours under ideal sun to get the full 4kW, so it'd likely take 2 days to go from zero to full, perhaps a bit less if you optimized the angle of the panels to the sun.
