Solar Panels For Homes

Is there any kind of big battery solar power thing?

I am trying to describe basically a big battery that charges up during the day by solar panels outside and can be used to power lamps and phone chargers and whatnot. I want to start using at least some solar technology but I am only 15 and I do not have a house on which to place panels.

You could take a look at a product that has the battery and inverter combined. Then you can charge that with a solar panel plugged into the cigarette light adapter on it. Its small, so the lamp should have a CFL bulb in it (which you should be using anyway to save power). It’s nice to have for camping trips as well, we use this all the time.
