/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Very cool idea. Best of luck to you. As a friendly tip, most downtown areas have unprotected power outlets at the base of the trees. That's what they plug the christmas lights into in the winter time. They don't have the resources or the interest to prevent people from leeching off of them provided it's not 24/7. You'd have to feed the meter, but this is a good way to grab a very cheap recharge if the weather makes solar charging impossible.
