Gosun

Hello, I’m Patrick Sherwin, CEO of GoSun and this post explains why you might be surprised to find GoSun creating cooling products, instead of solar cooking products. We have innovated and grown very organically; starting from our solid base and listening to what our customers want and need. Last year’s launch of the hybrid solar and electric oven positioned us to launch a solar powered cooler and there’s several more breakthrough products in the pipeline.  Our mission is to make consumer solar products more accessible than ever before. In just a few years we have emerged as the world’s leading brand in solar cooking and we are on our way into the backyards, campsites and village around the world. A rocket ship of growth based on reliable, affordable fuel-free appliances. Humans have been using fire for over 300,000 years and very little has changed. 40% of the world, sucking on toxic fumes, generally indoors, causing one of the leading reasons for preventible de...

The idea of cooking a delicious meal just by using the power of the sun is enticing, and GoSun Go is making it happen with its line of solar ovens. We’ve talked about the design before and checked them out at CES, but it wasn’t until recently that we were able to get our hands on one of these bad boys to test it out. From veggie burgers and baked sweet potato to mixed-berry muffins, coffee and oatmeal, we tried cooking a wide variety of foods in this portable, solar-powered oven. Setting up the GoSun Go When we removed the GoSun Go from the box, we were a little surprised by how simple it looked. It features a basic fabric case plus a plastic kickstand that admittedly felt a bit flimsy. The glass tube, however, was sturdy, and we liked the small silicone molds that hold food for easy clean-up. Cooking in the cold We scheduled to cook outside on what was supposed to be a warm, sunny day. In a surprising twist, especially for L.A., we ended up with a chilly breeze and r...

Avoid Low Battery Anxiety! Get a Chill! We all know that the Chill will allow you to never buy ICE again - but do you know it can help you avoid battery ANXIETY? LG recently surveyed thousands of people and have dubbed the concept of "Low Battery Anxiety" to exemplify the behavior of people who are changing their everyday lives – just to accommodate their dying battery. The survey found that nearly nine out of 10 people "felt panic" when their phone battery drops to 20 percent or lower. According to the study, 60 percent of those surveyed reported that they've blamed a dead phone for not speaking to a family member, friend, co-worker or significant other if their battery was low.  And what's more, one in three people have gotten into an argument with a significant other or romantic interest as a result of unanswered calls or texts because their smartphone battery was dead. Now thanks to the GoSun Chill, you can keep your food and drinks cold without ic...

The reason has to do with solar radiation, essentially being bombarded by photons. When sitting in the shade, you aren't being zapped by the Sun's rays so your body feels cooler. In one sense it is cooler; there is not as much molecular excitement, and temperature is defined as the level of molecular motion. The same principle that makes the shade an idea spot to lounge in the summer is what makes the GoSun's Chill operate at its most efficient capacity. When it is placed under the Solar Table, the Chill’s direct surface is not being directly heated, so it does not absorb solar radiation, and therefore does not have to work as hard to keep cold. A side benefit of keeping the Chill out of the Sun is avoiding its ultraviolet rays, which can clause the Chill's plastic surface--or any plastic surface for that matter--to slowly deteriorate. Although the air temperature may record the same, the surface temperature of the cooler can be 15 degrees F hotter, as the s...
