 Nice way to go green. Handy for hiking. |

| Reviewer: Rodney Beede, |
Compact size. Very light weight. You can charge batteries using sun or usb power. You cannot charge usb devices using solar but you can with batteries.
Would have been nice if the IN-OUT switch on the side was more descriptive, but the provided instructions were helpful. Would have been nice if it had included a small travel pouch for carrying around the adapters and manual.
From the instructions manual:
Charge Time
Type Size Cap Source Time
Ni-Mh AA 2100 mAh Sun 1-2 days
USB About 10-11 hrs
Other things from the manual:
"The UltraLast Green Sol Charger will not charge USB devices using Sun/Solar power"
No big deal since you can't really expect such a small panel to have sufficient power. I just charge the batteries first then charge my phone from the batteries.
"The LED will not change color or turn off to indicate charging has complete."
Annoying since you can't tell when it is fully charged.
I paid $25 (shipping and all) so it was an okay deal for the price. It will be handy for long car trips and what not. |
