The post Was Kann Man Mit Einem Solargenerator Machen? appeared first on Sunset Leisure.
]]>Solargeneratoren sind wie die seit langem f??r rasche, transportable Stromversorgung genutzten Powerbanks, Akkus oder Batterien relativ kompakt gebaut. Im Gegensatz zu den anderen aufgez?¤hlten Energiespendern sind sie aber in der Lage – wie es der Name schon sagt – selbst Energie zu generieren. Dies kann im Ernstfall ??berlebenswichtig sein, aber auch beim Camping oder im Abenteuerurlaub profitierst Du von dieser transportablen Stromquelle. Dabei kannst Du zwischen verschiedenen Gr???en und Kapazit?¤ten w?¤hlen, es gibt sie momentan sogar als kleine Solarkraftwerke mit bis zu ca. 3000 Wh Kapazit?¤t. Von der komfortablen Solar-Powerbank f??r Handy oder Tablet mit einer Kapazit?¤t von bis zu 150 Wh ??ber kleine Solar-Generatoren f??r den Betrieb von Elektro-Kleinger?¤ten bis zu Solar-Generatoren mit bis zur 500 Wh-Kapazit?¤t (beispielsweise f??r die Aufladung eines E-Bikes) stehen viele verschiedene Modelle zur Auswahl.
Am besten ??berlegst Du Dir schon vor dem Kauf, f??r welche Ger?¤te Du den Generatornutzen m??chtest, sodass sich daraus die ben??tigte Kapazit?¤t ergibt. Ber??cksichtigen musst Du allerdings, dass Energiefresser wie Heizstrahler eine hohe Wattleistung ben??tigen und daher erst bei Generatoren mit einer entsprechend hohen Kapazit?¤t nutzbar sind. Dies bedeutet, dass Du bei einem Heizstrahler mit einer Leistung von 1500 Wh bereits ein Mini-Solarkraftwerk ben??tigst, das eine Kapazit?¤t von bis zu ca. 3000 Wh zur Verf??gung stellt. Solche Generatoren sind au?erdem mit einem Gewicht von bis zu 50 kg ausgesprochen schwer und daher vor allem f??r den Gebrauch zu Hause, beispielsweise im Falle eines Stromausfalls, geeignet. Auch beim Campen ohne verf??gbares Stromnetz und dem Transport im Auto, Wohnwagen oder Wohnmobil sind diese gro?en Ger?¤te durchaus n??tzlich, da sie aufgrund der enormen Leistung s?¤mtliche Elektroverbraucher mit Strom versorgen k??nnen.
Wann lohnt sich ein Solargenerator?
Selbstverst?¤ndlich ist es vor allem eine Frage der individuellen Bed??rfnisse, aber meiner Ansicht nach ist der beste Kompromiss zwischen Preis und Leistung bzw. Nutzungsvielfalt der Kauf eines gr???eren Generators. So lassen sich s?¤mtliche Ger?¤te im Haushalt betreiben, ohne den Aufwand und die hohen Kosten f??r eine Fotovoltaik-Anlage aufbringen zu m??ssen. Neben der Versorgung im Notfall helfen sie jederzeit mit, teuren Strom aus dem Netz zu sparen und mithilfe der Solarmodule die kostenlose Energie der Sonne zu nutzen. So k??nnen neben der umweltfreundlichen Stromproduktion nicht nur Kosten, sondern auch Treibstoff-Ressourcen sowie unn??tiger CO2-Aussto? eingespart werden – der Kauf eines Solargenerators lohnt sich daher in jedem Fall. Ein zus?¤tzlicher Pluspunkt ist, dass sich die Kapazit?¤t dieser Solarkraftwerke zum Teil sogar noch mit Batterien erweitern l?¤sst.
Was kostet ein Solargenerator?
Die Kosten sind vor allem von der Kapazit?¤t des Solar-Generators abh?¤ngig. Die simpelsten Solar-Powerbanks sind bereits zu einem Preis ab 30 Euro erh?¤ltlich, k??nnen aber aufgrund der geringen Leistung lediglich f??r die Nutzung mit Handys empfohlen werden. G??nstige, kleine Solargeneratoren sind um 200 bis 300 Euro zu haben und liefern je nach Modell ca. 300 Wh an Leistung. Die mittelgro?en Solargeneratoren findet man zu sehr unterschiedlichen Kosten, die bei 650 Euro beginnen, durchaus aber auch weit ??ber 1000 Euro liegen k??nnen. Die leistungsst?¤rksten Solar-Generatoren sind richtige Kraftwerke, die sich preislich im Bereich von 1800 bis 4000 Euro ansiedeln. Daf??r liefern sie aber auch Strom f??r diverse stromfressende Haushaltsger?¤te wie Heizstrahler, Wasserkocher oder Mikrowelle, f??r die andere Solargeneratoren weitaus zu schwach sind.
Welcher ist der beste Solargenerator?
Im Zuge meiner Recherchen bin ich vor allem auf ein Modell im Bereich der kompakteren Mini-Solarkraftwerke aufmerksam geworden – den Jackery 2000W Pro. Er hat bei einer Kapazit?¤t von 2150 Wh die Kraft, sogar einen Elektrogrill zu betreiben, woran kleinere Generatoren kl?¤glich scheitern. Er kann daher sowohl im Campingurlaub als auch als Notstromaggregat bei einem Blackout genutzt werden, aufgrund eines Gewichts von 19,5 kg eignet er sich allerdings nicht f??r Radtouren oder l?¤ngere Wanderungen.
Auch die Ladezeit ??ber sechs Solarpanels von zweieinhalb bis drei Stunden ??berzeugt im Test, wobei es hier ebenfalls m??glich ist, die Powerstation einerseits ??ber das Stromnetz, andererseits ??ber den Zigarettenanz??nder w?¤hrend der Autofahrt aufzuladen. F??r die Stromentnahme hat das Ger?¤t vier USB-Anschl??sse und zwei 230-Volt-Steckdosen, die eine Leistung von 2200 Watt zur Verf??gung stellen. Besondere Pluspunkte sind einerseits die Schutzabdeckungen der Steckverbindungen, andererseits die geringe Lautst?¤rke der eingebauten L??ftung des Ger?¤tes.
Angesichts der stabilen und hochwertigen Bauweise, einer gut durchdachten, unkomplizierten Bedienung und der hohen Kapazit?¤t und einer Leistungsst?¤rke von 2200 Watt sind die Kosten ab ca. 1.800,- in der Kategorie der Solarkraftwerke ein durchaus angemessener und guter Preis. Weiters besteht neben der 3-Jahres-Garantie die M??glichkeit, zwei zus?¤tzliche Jahre Garantie ??ber den renommierten Hersteller Jackery in Anspruch zu nehmen, bei Fragen steht ein 24-Stunden-Kundenservice bereit. Als Zubeh??r ist eine Transporttasche verf??gbar.
F??r welches System man sich letztendlich entscheidet, h?¤ngt vor allem davon ab, f??r welchen Zweck man sich den Solar-Generator kaufen m??chte und andererseits nat??rlich vom zur Verf??gung stehenden Budget. Es steht aber fest, dass man mit einer h??heren Leistung des Generators und der Solarpanele sicher besser vorgesorgt hat, als sp?¤ter feststellen zu m??ssen, dass die Kapazit?¤t doch nicht ausreicht. Und vor allem in Zeiten der steigenden Stromkosten und der immer st?¤rker drohenden Gefahr eines l?¤nger dauernden Blackouts sollte man – soweit m??glich – die Kosten f??r das bestm??gliche System in diese noch dazu umweltschonende Stromversorgung investieren.

]]>The post Safari In South Africa appeared first on Sunset Leisure.
]]>There are several different kinds of African safaris, each with its characteristic. In addition to a big game, an African safari may also include trekking, mountain biking, swimming, golfing, biking, etc., leading to a more profound understanding and appreciation of wildlife and its habitats. For instance, a beach safari in Kenya may include snorkeling, scuba diving, boating, kayaking, etc., while a safari on the eastern side of South Africa may include walking through the dense forest, camping under the stars, driving through game reserves, helicopter or airplane trips, visiting the National Geographic headquarters, visiting the pyramids in Egypt, etc.
Several authorized game reserves in south Africa provide opportunities for photographic safaris. The most popular game reserves in the country include Kruger National Park, Okavango Delta National Park, Mount Elgon National Park, Masai Mara Game Reserve, and Blyde River National Park. Many an adventure seeker has put in efforts to bag big cats’ in the game reserves, including the famous lion ‘Nsukubanding’ that resides in Okavango Delta. But perhaps the most famous cat in the world is the diamond-backed cat that resides in the Okavango Delta in Botswana!
An African safari in Tanzania will include a visit to the Serengeti national park where visitors can expect to see some of the wildest animals on the continent. There, visitors will meet with the Maasai tribe who dwell in the harsh wildernesses of Tanzania. Maasai people are nomadic hunters and their culture is marked by their religious ceremonies and rituals. If you are fortunate enough to witness a Maasai tribal lioness on her way to mating, you will witness one of the most powerful forces on earth.
If an African safari in Tanzania is your ‘dream vacation’, there is no better place to start your safari trip than Dar es Salaam the capital city of Tanzania. The colorful city is the home of the famous Tanzania museums that display the history and artwork of Tanzania’s ancient inhabitants as well as some of the best examples of contemporary Tanzania art. The Serengeti National Park offers visitors the best chance to observe wild cats and other fascinating wildlife. On a safari in Tanzania, the best months to visit are from October to March. During this time, the Serengeti is not as crowded as other areas of Tanzania and offers an opportunity to enjoy an uninterrupted safari.
Many visitors to Tanzania opt to visit the Ngorongoro Crater, one of the seven natural wonders of Africa. Although it was once home to gorillas, chimpanzees, and hippos, the Serengeti began to dominate the ecosystem around 2000 B.C., resulting in its development as a habitat for lions, wildebeests, and deer. For those looking to get up close and personal with wildebeest migration, the Serengeti Plains is the perfect place. Many safaris also include visits to the Ngorongoro crater and other locales within the Great Rift Valley.
For the ideal Safari in South Africa, visit Orion Safari Lodge in Rustenburg. You will not regret it!

]]>When you look at it from an airplane, the first thing youll notice is its similarity to European cities. Its even called The Paris of the South by a lot of tourists. The citys architecture consists of churches and hotels that have intricate designs and dome-like ceilings that youd think you suddenly went to Paris. While youre here, explore the many things you can do to liven up your spirit.
When walking the streets of this fabulous city, one of the first things you’ll notice is the number of dogs. The Portenos love their four-legged friends and these cute creatures can be seen paraded by their owners down smart shopping streets or walking in the local park. But don’t think about bringing your own pooch as dog friendly accommodation here is limited – unlike other countries such as the UK where there is a wide choice of pet friendly holiday homes.
Food in Buenos Aires is often meat, wine, and sweets. Minus the sweets, you wont notice that you are even in South America.?Buenos Aires offers the juiciest steaks from sirloin, rib eye, to porterhouse. Their parrillas (which are also called steakhouses) can be found everywhere and whats great about this is that even if its everywhere, you wouldnt feel that the taste is commercialized. You can also find different cuts of steak in the many restaurants lining the streets. Couple this with wine and you will definitely have a full and satisfied belly.?But as you walk around the city, youll see ice cream stores and its hard to resist the call of sweet and creamy desserts. Try their dulce de leche?helado?which is always a must-try for tourists. You can also try media luna with dulce de leche.
The notable thing about Buenos Aires is its architecture. Yes, it feels like youre in Europe, but couple this with the whole atmosphere of the city and you feel like a painting has come to life.
Drop by Casa Rosada which is where Madonna was filmed as Eva Peron in the movie Evita. It is also considered as the citys most iconic tourist destination. But aside from its architecture, art is seen all around Buenos Aires. Lining the streets are artists making the city their inspiration.
Often considered the birthplace of tango, Buenos Aires is a great place to challenge your dancing skills. It was believed that tango was first created by people from Buenos Aires as a form of entertainment when they were waiting outside the houses of the women they courted.
There are numerous dance schools and dance salons where you can learn how to dance sultry moves. Youll meet dance instructors who have been practicing the art of tango for years.
To cap off your day, visit some night clubs and discos around the city. Buenos Aires is a city that never sleeps and even the restaurants are open until?10 PM. Partygoers often start going to clubs from?2 am?until the sun rises.
But if you dont want to go partying all night, you can look for chill bars playing live music while you eat dinner and hang out with friends and people you meet around the city.

]]>Once you have decided when and where you and your pet will be traveling to, you will need to find a suitable transport service which is able to meet your requirements. Searching for and also comparing different pet transporting companies can be very time consuming. The pet move can also be extremely expensive especially if you are importing or exporting any animal for example.
Pet transportation can be regulated differently by various countries. Pet relocator companies also help you with all this, thereby taking the additional stress out of any move.

You need to find a pet travel service company with many years of experience with pet care and also pet transportation, a hands on and manager orientated company that can guarantee the best and most secure, relaxed adventure for all of your pets. They must do do whatever it will take to provide your very important family member with the best smooth and stress free travel experience.
Good pet transport companies are sometimes hard to find. All the necessary travel reservations have to be arranged for you. Everything has to be done correctly the first time, which will save you time and also a lot of money. Don’t just trust your pet to be cared for by anyone.
Superior pet transport will simplify the involved and often confusing procedure of relocating any pet overseas. There is a whole range of quarantine, as well as government, airline and also air travel regulations which have to be met well before your pet will be able to travel.
You want to always rely on the pet travel service you choose to ensure that your move goes smoothly, hassle free and relaxed all the way.

If you happen to be traveling from the US to Mexico your pets need to always be brought in a pet transporter and it need to be clean and hygienic, not have a bed in it, and also no toys or snacks. Dry pet food and water is all that is allowed but any other accessories like beds, toys, snacks etc. may be confiscated for disposal.

]]>The post A Travel Guide To Europes Most Famous Beers appeared first on Sunset Leisure.
]]>The taste of beer is different for every country and when you try to ask for a beer in the bar, they would most likely give you their local beer. So if you wan to prepare yourself for the many beers you would be tasting, here’s a rundown of all the beers you should try when you’re visiting Europe.
Because Germany is considered to be the place to get the best beers, it’s hard to name which is exactly the best. Anyone who has visited Germany as a tourist will be amazed at how much beer they give right from the bar. Visit on October and you get to see people chugging not just bottles, but huge beer mugs at Oktoberfest.
Nonetheless, if you find yourself in beautiful Germany, don’t miss out on trying Radeberger Pils, Schneider Aventinus, and Paulaner. Radeberger Pils is one of the classic and light beers you’ll ever taste and it’s very refreshing to complement to any meal. Schneider Aventinus, on the other hand, is more malty so it’s best paired with dairy products. For Paulaner, try their Doppel Bock which tastes dark but you can also taste the toasted spices and caramel in it.
The most famous beer in Holland is no other than Heineken. This pale lager beer was manufactured by Gerard Heineken in 1873 after convincing his mother to buy The Haystack brewery. Today, Heineken is internationally both for its flavor and for its popular green bottle and red star. Heineken is also a major sponsor of a lot of international events and parties in different countries.
Similar to German beer, Austrian beer is light and refreshing that you can easily drink anytime and anywhere. One of the most popular beers in this country is the Stiegl which is Austrian for “little step”. Unlike others that are malty or bitter, Stiegl is a little sour. Another beer you might want to try is the Ottakringer which you will often see in the Eastern part of Austria and very well-known in Vienna. It’s famous because it’s always found in rock festivals.
The two beers you’ll often encounter in Denmark are Carlsberg and Tuborg. Carlsberg is also famous for its green colors and the Carlsberg Group is the fifth largest brewery in the world. The best way to drink it is to accompany it with a shot of aquavit. Interestingly enough, Tuborg is also owned by the Carlsberg Group even if they were two different breweries in the 1800s. Tuborg first produced pale lager in 1894 and then became part of the Carlsberg Group in 1903. Today, its sales and distribution sites have increased to make it more available in the European market.
If beer is not your thing, try other kinds of vacations such as dog friendly holidays, activity breaks and cultural tours. If you have a purpose for travel it makes the experience much more rewarding, even if it is just slurping the local brew!

Restaurant Erbprinz 1 Michelin Star
?–
This is a cozy but luxurious restaurant in Ettlingen that serves gourmet five-course or seven-course meals as well as à la carte dishes. This place serves only a small number of guests daily but during summer, they open the terrace and combine their wonderful food with a terrific view.
Zirbelstube 1 Michelin Star
?–
If you are visiting the picturesque old town of Freiburg, be sure to make a reservation for Zirbelstube, a very popular restaurant that has been wowing its diners for over 20 years.

]]>You’re not just travelling to enjoy a different environment. You’re also exploring a different culture.
And there’s much to see in an overseas vacation. Your options are endless, and they go beyond a simple museum visit.
But – you may not know what to do on your next vacation. And this is where we can help you.
Below, we’ll discuss 5 activities you can do on your next travel. Treat them as suggestions to guide your travel planning!
Where there are waters, you’ll find cruise ship services.
And this is especially true overseas. In fact, trying an overseas cruise ship is always a requirement.
A few days on a cruise ship is a good break from society. And it brings with it tons of activities to do!
For starters, there’s a fancy cuisine. You get to enjoy top-notch cooking from renowned chefs.
Cruise ships are a chance to socialize with other travelers. You can get to know people from around the world.
And 3rd, there’s entertainment. Cruise ships have dance parties and beautiful music for you and your friends!
A cruise ship combines unique scenery, and multiple activities into a single experience.
Unique food is part of any country’s culture.
People don’t go overseas to try another McDonalds. They travel to try different cooking styles, and traditional dishes.
It’s a chance to scour for a recipe or two to take home. And who knows, you might find something you can pass down to your family!
Restaurant Shopping
You’ll try out local food at restaurants. So you need to prepare a long list of food stops to visit.
Also, you must research the foods you want to try. Prepare a basic list of traditional dishes at your vacation target.
Try to understand the raw ingredients used. And get to know the history behind each ingredient.
You see, trying traditional dishes isn’t just a matter a taste. It’s also a geographical experience, where ingredients used come from the surrounding environment!
And speaking of the environment:
And here, we’re not talking about museums.
We mean abandoned locations with historical significance – renovated for tourism. You’ll see those as monuments of ancient civilizations, or as ancient rural structures…
Example 1:
Let’s say you’re visiting a Caribbean country. Many are known for centuries-old sugarcane farming.
As a result, you’ll find man abandoned sugarcane mills that are 100s of years in age.
They’re interesting to visit. They give perspective, showing you how the differences between urbanity and old living methods.
Example 2:
Let’s say you’re visiting a country like Peru.
A common place to check is Machu Picchu. It’s a known abandoned settlement, designed in the 15th century by the Incans.
It’s a mystery to check out. And it makes for a fun touring activity!
Some countries are social by nature.
Their cultures are filled with carnivals, get-togethers, celebrations – you name them.
Such festive countries should be on your visit list. There’s a lot you can enjoy in a large festival.
For starters, festivals are where you can try local food, without restaurant shopping. It acts as a way to actualize the 2nd point we mentioned here…
Also, it’s a chance to try local clothing and music. Because you can’t have a festival without a little partying!
And 3rd, festivals celebrate many things. You can visit religious festivals, sports festivals, cooking contests, and even local entrepreneurial events!
Some countries offer unique living spaces.
For example, at an island nation, you’re almost always by a beach. So you can choose to stay in a beach condo apartment or condo…
Or, you can choose to try a cottage, or a house!
Really, accommodation matters on your vacation. It’s a key part of your comfort, and it’s where you’ll spend most of your day.
Your accommodation itself is an activity.
So be sure to plan where you’ll book a stay, as much as you plan your activities!
And While You’re at it – Let Smart Travel Agents Help You.
The task of planning a holiday is a daunting one. Because there’s so much you can visit. And to ease your research, you need a computer’s help.
With the current advancements in travel technology, computers can do most of the research for you.
Some companies today are pioneering smart travel systems, that can analyze your personality in detail.
They then sift through thousands of accommodation and activity options, finding what suits your personality best!
It’s a process that’ll cut your travel research from hours, into mere minutes.

]]>The post Great Holiday Experiences In A Villa On The Beach appeared first on Sunset Leisure.
]]>One of the best places to go for a great holiday experience is Barbados. Located in the Caribbean, the islands are an excellent tropical destination that allows you to slip away from the holiday stresses that have plagued you for years. If you are interested in taking a vacation to Barbados, you should consider renting villas on the beach. Barbados Villa Rentals will leave you with a vacation experience that you will surely never forget.
Why Does Barbados Make For A Great Holiday Experience?
No matter when you plan on taking your trip, Barbados should be at the top of your list because of its location. Unlike other destinations, the islands do not experience the four seasons. Instead, they see sun year-round. For those looking to take a vacation for Thanksgiving or Christmas, Barbados is a great option. Don’t forget to pack the sunscreen!
