Comment on Solar powered personal umbrella with battery?
Alaik@lemmy.zip 5 days agoIm beginning to see more people actually parasoling in the southern US and if im being honest… I’ve been tempted given how our heat and UV measurements are going.

Interesting. It appears that it is one side effect of climate change.
Side note: PV panels try to absorb a lot of light. Parasols try to reflect it, which is why they usually have a bright color. Imagine now holding an umbrella, absorbing more energy than your skin/hair would, causing you to sweat even more?
