4
out of 5 Stars
I picked this up because every year I run a
cam of about 18 at a 2 week medieval camping event & we are always looking
for ways to keep our tech charged without having to trek all the way up to the
“Barn” & sitting & waiting as your phone charges with tons of other
people doing the same thing, or having to hook up a converter to one of the
vehicles. I have been wanting to get one of these for a while for the camp as
we have one nice good sunny spot in camp that would be perfect to set this
in. Upon arrival, I wanted to give this
solar charger a shot, so I set it up in the back yard with both my cell phone
& my cell external battery charger & extra battery & left them to
charge while I did my yard work & gardening. I will have to admit, it
worked very well. I don’t honestly recall how long I was out there (time
escapes me when I’m gardening) but when I was ready to go in, everything was
fully charged. The true test will come when I have multiple people using this
one after the other for 2 weeks. I don’t foresee any issues as this seems to be
well made & it folds up nicely for protection when storing it. I’m going to start with just 4 stars because
I still want to test it some more & would like the ability to add a star if
it truly preforms well after 2 weeks of our abuse at the event. So far I really
do love this Solar panel charger & am looking forward to having the
convenience of having it while I’m camping. At the moment I see no reason why I
won’t be upgrading this review to 5 stars once I return from my event.
Pros:
High efficiency solar thermal
conversion: Built with SunPower solar arrays, its conversion up to 21.5% ~
23.5%, but most of panel on the market only 15%. This solar charger can
automatically test maximum current and voltage charge; fastest possible
charging speed up to 2.4A max per port, overall to charge two devices
simultaneously under direct sunlight.
Cons:
At the moment all is good with
this solar panel, however I have not had sufficient time to test this in the
manner it will be used at Pennsic. I will be updating my review after the event
with additional pictures of it in action & how well it held up to the
constant use over the 2 week period
I would be happy to recommend this
to anyone looking for a backup method for charging your tech either in power
outages or while hiking or camping or any other place you have a good source of
sunlight
