Frequently Asked Questions
Solar charger or classic power bank?
The solar charger is a power bank that also recharges in the sun: the same base battery life, plus the ability to top up while you walk. On long treks far from power sockets, this solar boost noticeably extends your electrical autonomy.
Does the solar panel recharge the battery quickly?
No, the built-in panel is a slow top-up: it extends your battery life over the course of the day but it's not a substitute for a mains charge. The best approach is to set off with a full battery, then let the solar panel top it up as you walk.
What capacity should you choose for a solar charger?
It depends on the length of your trip: a high mAh capacity will recharge a phone several times over for a multi-day trek. The higher the capacity, the heavier the charger - so choose the right balance between battery life and the weight you're carrying.
Is a solar charger waterproof?
Models designed for the outdoors stand up to rain, dust and knocks, making them reliable companions on the trail. Check the stated protection rating, and still keep the USB ports shielded from water to protect the electronics.
