MagyarCES 2023 | Jackery LightTent-AIR inflatable tent with solar panels wins Best of Innovation Award
The Jackery LightTent-AIR, an inflatable tent with integrated solar panels, has won a CES 2023 Best of Innovation Award. The shelter can generate up to 1,200 W power thanks to the flexible gallium arsenide (GaAs) panels. The solar energy can be stored in built-in storage modules, providing a 24-hour power solution.
The portable product is waterproof and flame retardant thanks to PVC-coated material. Plus, the fabric is easy to clean and can insulate heat. To maximize photovoltaic power generation, the GaAs solar panels must be exposed to as much sunlight as possible. It is unclear how this would affect the temperature inside the tent, particularly during warmer weather. The tent has been designed to be self-supporting, so no tent poles are required. Reports suggest that the tent is large enough for four to five people and that the canopy is adjustable.
The Jackery LightTent-AIR demonstrated at CES 2023 appears to be a prototype with a white and orange design. A release date and pricing for the product are yet to be confirmed. At the same event, Jackery also won awards for its SG Explorer 2000 Pro outdoor 2,160 wh power supply with solar panels and Air-W portable wind power generation accessory, which could also be used when camping. Also showcased was the award-winning LightCycle-S1, a wheeled battery with a 3,500 Wh capacity.
