Solar power is now available to energize outdoor tables and eating spaces. The ShadeCharger(TM) module turns a standard picnic table into a solar-powered workstation. 110v AC power and USB outlets deliver solar power to the table surface without need for utility power. The overhead solar shade structure contains all the electrical functions. Power is available at the table surface using standard outlet connections.
