Abstract

A solar-powered device includes a housing including an electronic element, a number of panels having solar cells capable of providing electrical energy upon illumination, the panels being configured to move from a closed configuration to an open configuration, where the open configuration allows illumination to fall upon the solar cells when positioned in a location from which illumination is available; and a support element contacting the panels and the housing to convey electricity from the panels to the housing, where the electronic elements are powered with electricity from the solar cells.
