I was looking into adding the hobie evolve option, and learned that v2 is released with a solar charging port. My question is is there any plans to get Powerfilm (the solar mfg currently working with torqueedo)to create a custom solar panel for the AI that could be bungied between the akas? I think there is enough area to make a panels (2) that could push at 2-3.5 mph without drawing any amps from the battery. Torqueedos current solar panel seems a bit large at 36"x58", but has grommets for bungies, but It would be nice to know why Torqueedo is investing in the solar port on the hobie evolve model.

Windrider is already marketing a Torqueedo panel on their website.

Any admin have any insight to the purpose of the solar port yet?
