Grape Solar flexible 100w panels
Just throwing this out for discussion. I already have a portable kit so this is not for me.

Seems like this could make a very easy to store portable. I don't think they can be rolled up, but being thin and flexible, anyone should have some place to store it. The panel has a mounting hole in each corner. Add a couple of legs with spikes on each end. Jam one end of each leg into the ground and the other sticks through the hole on the panel, and you have tilt. Spike the other end of the panel to the ground.
They are sold by several big retailers. AM Solar mentions them but says they have problems with cupping which leads to water and crud buildup. But as a portable that shouldn't happen. $300, so they are not cheap.
Thoughts?
